He's wonderfully easy to work with, unobtrusive during the event, and a real artist. I'm so glad we chose him to capture our day. Thanks, Christophe!

Christophe is seriously the most professional, knowledgeable, helpful and thorough photographer…read morearound! It all started when I sent a mass message request for quotes from various photographers around the Napa area. I had planned to do a surprise proposal for my now fiance and the responses I received were unhelpful and dry. Many responses were received such as "500 flat rate" or "not available". Well, Chris responded with a very thorough and inquiring message. He sent many many suggestions of places to propose at, what the area is like, what the staff is like ... man I can't name the countless details he has discussed with me. Point being, he went ABOVE AND BEYOND what nobody else would. I had a few places in mind to propose at, but these suggestions Christophe made were fantastic. I'm talking vast mountain views and intimate settings. Open vineyards as far as the eye can see where no one is around but just you and that special person. He has done us a 100/10 service in helping plan and set up the surprise engagement. Christophe is special to me in the way that he has made this whole process a comfortable and exciting one. I was very nervous throughout the whole process and due to some miscommunication, I was devastated but Chris cleared everything up for me and the other parties involved, and from there I knew he was a man with a good heart that only wants the best for his clients. In preparation of the surprise engagement, he gave very very thorough and specific details. Like, there's no way you can go wrong!! It was so comforting knowing step by step what I should do and how to help my fiance get the best shots without compromising the surprise in any way. In the end, my fiance was so happy about the whole engagement that we couldn't stop talking about Chris and the venue the whole ride back to our hotel. We seriously commend Christophe for his professionalism and attention to detail. If ever we return to the Napa area and need a photographer, we'll be hitting you up again Chris!! Thank you so much for a wonderful experience.

However, Christina sees through your nerves and gives you all the pointers you need to make your photos look effortlessly gorgeous. She is so hilarious and a blast to work with. She knows how to loosen you up and make you feel comfortable, sexy, and glamorous. We were a COVID couple and throughout the entire planning process, Christina was helpful, patient and understanding. When it came to our wedding day, we were fighting COVID, smoke in the air and loss of time for shooting due to the bride being late - shocker! Thankfully Christina did not skip a beat, and went into hyper speed. She is assertive, and makes quick but smart decisions, which is exactly what you need when you're losing light and trying to wrangle 15+ tipsy people. When we got our photos back, they absolutely took our breath away and we couldn't wait to share them with all our family and friends. She has an incredible eye, years of talent, and it all shows in the beautiful images she produces. If you are thinking of hiring Christina, stop thinking - and do it. It will be the the best decision you'll make while wedding planning.

Our family traveled from Wisconsin to California to be part of my brother and his beautiful wife's…read morewedding in 2022. It was so beautiful and such an intimate wedding. Myself, my husband, and our 9 month old son were all in the wedding party. As you can imagine, I was so excited to be able to see all the pictures that were taken. After all, it's not like we were able to take pictures during the ceremony or during all those special moments. People even say it's rude to take pictures during weddings, that's why you pay sooo much money for a photographer, right?! Well, after returning home, we learned the heartbreaking news that Amanda did not back up any of the photos on her computer after deleting them from her camera, her computer crashed, and you can guess what happened....ALL of the photos were GONE!! Who doesn't back up their work?! These are irreplaceable moments. This is so inexcusable and downright terrible business practices. But you want to know the cherry on the top of it all?! She refuses to give my brother and his wife their money back!!! She even had the gall to tell them that she'd only give them their money back if they would take down their review!!! We've bitten our tongues for a long enough. Save your money and do not trust this irresponsible photographer with your most precious moments. I understand things happen, but she has not handled this in any sort of professional way. This is honestly the most absurd thing that I have ever heard of and your actions for not backing up your work and how you've handled everything since have been egregious!!! They have been more than patient for the last two years, trying to recover photos and figure out a way to get this rectified and have not received anywhere close to an acceptable resolution. You would get zero stars if I was allowed. And I will post this all over again if I have to. Do not trust Amanda Marie Photography!!

I came from a past of not the greatest photographers which made me loose my spark in getting photos done to cherish special moments / people... but then Amanda knocked me off my feet with her special talent.

Her talent goes above and beyond with every LITTLE detail ( which is SO important in photography). Thank you Amanda for giving us the gallery of our dreams!

We went to Napa for a little Baby Moon and were able to book Aileen for a sunset maternity photoshoot that same weekend. She was so easy to work with, great communication, and even had recommendations for outfits and locations. She even recommended that I create a Pinterest board to share with her to make sure she could capture what we were looking for in the photoshoot. The 60 min photoshoot flew by, and my husband and I had a wonderful time with her. Highly recommend Aileen for your upcoming family, baby, and/or maternity photoshoots. Can't wait to book her again!

Our usual photographer (7SistersPhotography) moved out of state, and I wanted to keep the same style that we have been doing since birth. Aileen captured exactly what I was aiming for! I tend to get a bit over-involved in planning photo shoots (like a notepad... from outfits (including outfit changes) & accessories, to props & decorative items, and anything in between). I'm sure some photographers would be annoyed by this behavior, haha, but not Aileen. She was very open to ideas & even encouraged participation in this capacity. She was friendly & sweet from our first conversation, and during the shoot, she was super patient with baby, despite his stinky attitude lol. It happened to be a little chilly outside (evening shoot), and baby started getting cold; so she totally adapted to our need-for-speed, and purposefully, expertly, & efficiently got the best shots in order to finish up quickly. I was first drawn to her policy regarding ownership & release of her client's images, which shows (1) true character, (2) a genuine love of her job (not just a way to nickle-n-dime people to death, haha), and (3) great confidence in her abilities to generate repeat business & lifelong clients (as opposed to racking up as many unnecessary charges as possible to pad the one-time tab)! I loved working with her, and will do so again for our next photography milestone. The images we received (in an oh so timely manner) were sooooo darn cute!! PERIOD. DOT.

She was with us the entire action-packed day starting with a walk in the redwoods, a picknick at a winery and even went out on a kayak with us as we free-dove the kelp and explored some other features of the coast. What a great sport! I doubt many photographers would do that, on top of having great skills. I can't thank her enough for helping us our special day, and for capturing it all so well.
