Amanda was an absolute dream and hands down one of the best decisions we made. She made everything feel easy and gave amazing direction on the wedding day, which helped us feel comfortable right away. Her talent is unreal. She captured our day in the most romantic, soft, and timeless way. The lighting and editing are stunning, and we are completely obsessed with our photos. Would recommend Amanda to anyone and everyone. read more

We worked with Amanda/Oh Lovely Wedding for our Coronado based wedding this summer and it was one of the best investments we made for the entire event. Leading up to the big weekend, Amanda was so easy to get in touch with and communicate our vision and needs for the day. My fiancé a few months back was diagnosed with Bell's Palsy and Amanda was so great to work with his best angles to minimize any major signals that something may be off. She was kind, professional, and took absolutely killer photos. Which brings me to my next point, Amanda's work is next level. The photos she produced came out even better than I hoped. Our tones and lighting in every photo was so perfect and I couldn't be happier with the results. We've gotten loads of compliments from our guests who love their photos and enjoyed Amanda's engagement at the wedding. I would absolutely recommend Amanda and Oh Lovely Wedding, and I know we'll be using her in the future! Thank you Amanda! read more

It was lovely having Amanda be part of our special day and she couldn't have been easier to work with. We love (love love) our photos. She captured everything beautifully! read more

I highly recommend Amanda for any and all photography needs!! Not only were our wedding pictures stunninggggg, she was extremely professional and made my wedding day stress-free. I chose to hire her over another photographer simply because she was able to take all my loose and random ideas and put them into an organized and seamless plan. She showed up two hours early to our wedding and scouted out the area to find the perfect places to take pictures throughout the evening. I am a tight spender and I have zero regrets hiring Amanda, she is worth every penny!! read more

Amanda was THEE BEST EVER. She was amazing from start to finish. She set up zoom calls to make sure we were on the right track, which was huge considering I live in LA & my husband lives in Sacramento. She directed us with poses & created the most stunning visuals we have ever seen. Her eye & vision are unmatched. We wholeheartedly recommend her for any and every event you may have! I've already recommended her to friends who are getting married in the area. Thank you so much Amanda!!! read more

Amanda (and her assistant) did our daughter's wedding photos, and they are wonderful! I cannot say enough good things about Amanda's professionalism, artistic eye, attention to detail, and ability to capture all the key moments while never seeming to be in view herself. We got almost 1300 high definition photos and every one of them was perfect! We highly recommend her to anyone seeking wedding photography of superb quality and reasonable price. If you go to her website, you can see examples and ours are "Annie and Brandon". Exceptional! read more

We booked Amanda for our engagement photos. Our 2 dogs were part of the session and she is great at working with pets! We also booked her for our wedding photos and absolutely loved working with her. Amanda previously took my brother's wedding photos and I particularly love how she is able to capture the emotions in each photo. My husband and I are both shy and awkward in front of the camera, but Amanda has the ability to put you at ease and she guides you in a way that makes you feel and look your best. I was nervous on the wedding day with everything going on and she really helped both of us relax with her calming presence. We had a small, intimate wedding with a little over 40 guests and I am so impressed with how Amanda captured beautiful moments from every angle, especially during our ceremony. I had no idea she was moving around everywhere until I saw the photos! If you are looking for a responsive, professional, and talented photographer, I highly recommend Amanda. We cannot thank her enough and will look back on these photographs fondly in years to come. read more

Hiring Amanda (Oh Lovely Wedding) as our wedding photographer was truly one of the best decisions we made for our special day. She's a great communicator, warm, friendly, creative and also extremely patient (which we found out is extremely important on your wedding day). Amanda and her team seamlessly blended into the background, capturing the most intimate and candid moments without ever feeling intrusive. They have a true talent for capturing not just the events of the day, but the genuine emotions that go along with them. She also had a plan, found fun places to shoot, and made us feel extremely comfortable throughout. The final photo gallery left us absolutely speechless. Her attention to detail, the play of light (ours was outside in a redwood grove which isn't easy to shoot), and the artistic composition in each shot were beyond our expectations. As I mentioned, not only is Amanda exceptionally talented, she is also incredibly professional and accommodating. She went above and beyond to ensure that every request was met and even added her creative touch to make every shot even more enchanting. Thank you, Amanda (& team), for turning our wedding day into a visual masterpiece that we will treasure forever! read more

We cannot say enough great things about Amanda and Oh Lovely Wedding! She was always available leading up to the big day and kept everything and everyone SO organized the day of. We had a very large bridal party and she managed everyone like a pro! Amanda even stayed a little longer to capture everything for us when we were running behind. The pictures are SO beautiful and we are going to cherish them forever! Our wedding was over 2 weeks ago and I have not stopped getting comments on how beautiful our photos are. Thank you Amanda! I would absolutely recommend Oh Lovely Wedding to anyone still shopping for a photographer read more

Amanda is the absolute BEST artist ever!!! She is extremely talented and has fantastic energy, positivity, and a calming presence, which is great for brides! Amanda understood my out-of-the-box wedding theme and nailed it. Thank you so much for working with us; we love all of our photos and couldn't have imagined our spooky day without you! read more

Choosing Amanda at Oh Lovely Wedding was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. Her experience and expertise put us at ease from the moment we hired her until the wedding day itself. On our wedding day, she arrived to our venue early, identified the best locations for portraits, and helped direct/guide our family members and bridal party for our group photos. She was directive with our portraits (which we were really grateful for!) and helped us feel at ease and comfortable in front of the camera. She captured every important event immaculately. She has this unique talent of being able to capture the emotion in each moment, which has made these wedding photos our greatest treasure. We are so thrilled with both our experience working with her, and the photos that we received. Truly couldn't ask more from a wedding photographer. 10/10 would recommend. read more

If I could give Amanda a 6th star, I would! On your wedding day, you want to feel like your photographer has got your back on covering all the moments that count. She went above and beyond. Prior to our date, we had met with her over the phone to discuss our concerns and what we really wanted to prioritize on our day. Day of, Amanda arrived on time, wrangled up the family for photos, and then was ready the moment the ceremony began. Post ceremony, we wanted to visit a local winery during sunset hour. She was more than willing to accommodate that request. What Amanda provided for us are now gems that we'll be cherishing for years to come. Hiring her was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. read more

I can't give Amanda and her team enough stars! They were incredible!! We had a bit of a late start but she didn't make us feel rushed or anything. Amanda quickly adjusted to the time and even worked with me adding a few last minute photo requests. Her photos are to die for! I just got them and I can't stop looking at them. She got to the venue right on time, got all the photos we wanted and them some and left everything up to us. She gave great direction and made everything look amazing. I seriously cannot recommend her and her team more! Seriously, if your questioning using her done. She's fantastic! read more

By far one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. Amanda is extremely professional but also has a way of making you feel extremely comfortable throughout your entire day. The moments she was able to capture are unlike any photos we had seen while researching photographers. We have received endless compliments, tears, and gasps when sharing our photos with family and friends. We had quite a large wedding party (20 in all) as well as large amounts of family members- Amanda and her partner seamlessly organized and coordinated taking shots with all involved in a minimal amount of time. We were so thankful to receive 3 sneak peak photos less than 24 hours after the wedding- they were stunning. We received all 2000 of our photos within 2 weeks. We still need to pick our favorites for her to do the final edits, but so many of them look great as is! Our wedding day was a blur of excitement but Amanda's photos were able to bring us back to some of the most intimate and loving moments of our day. read more

Amanda was absolutely amazing! During our first meeting with her she was very informative and professional. On our big day she and the 2nd photographer were kind and extremely efficient. We especially appreciated that we were able to get all of our couple, bridal party, and family photos done before the ceremony allowing us to enjoy our cocktail hour! She was great at giving us cues so that we got romantic and picturesque couple shots. We received our photos in a very timely manner and are so happy with how they turned out! I highly recommend hiring Amanda for your wedding photos! read more

I cannot recommend Amanda enough!! We are not only over-the-moon with our photos, but Amanda is SO pleasant and fun to work with. She is able to seamlessly plug herself in, adapt, and roll with all of the moving parts of a wedding day. She helped guide and pose us through all of the portraits, and she works so swiftly. She was able to keep all of the wedding party and family members on task for those formalized pictures, while remaining playful and chill. She also collaborated beautifully with our videographer and other vendors. Do yourself a favor and hire Amanda!! She brought a very warm and calming energy to such a hectic day, and we are forever grateful to be the recipient of her time and talents!! read more

I worked with Amanda on a surprise beach proposal for my fiancé. Amanda not only captured amazing shots of these special moments, but turned them into lifelong treasures for us and our close family. She helped us feel comfortable and natural in a post-proposal shoot and had lots of fun ideas that turned into beautiful pictures. Additionally, I really appreciated her accommodations and flexibility that went along with a "surprise" proposal (showing up early, hiding, etc...). Turn around for the photos was also very fast. I whole-heartedly recommend her for anyone looking to capture life's important moments!! read more

Where do I even begin!! After 3 wedding date changes due to COVID, my husband and I finally got married in September 2022 in San Diego. Amanda stuck with us over the past 3 years and has been so accommodating and flexible with moving us around within her schedule. We are so thankful for her and couldn't imagine our special day without her! First off, a few weeks before our big day I reached out to ask if she could photograph our rehearsal dinner. She rescheduled her flight into San Diego and made herself available to shoot our first family gathering of the weekend. We so appreciated her flexibility and willingness to be there for us!! What a way to start off our wedding weekend. On the day of our wedding, Amanda showed up early and was ready to get the ball rolling! I'm very awkward when it comes to taking pictures and Amanda immediately made me and my bridal party feel right at home! There wasn't one moment where we felt awkward or uncomfortable. Amanda knew exactly what to do every second of the day and was able to make the smallest moments feel so special. She made me feel so beautiful and confident and I am so grateful she was there to capture our wedding. Amanda is very thoughtful with each picture she takes and it showed in our STUNNING wedding pictures. We received our full gallery within 3 weeks of our wedding and I have been so emotional looking through each one. The emotion + joy she was able to capture allowed my husband and I to re-live the best day ever. We have had the toughest time trying to figure out what pictures to put into an album because EVERY SINGLE ONE is absolutely beautiful. I cannot recommend Amanda enough!! THANK YOU! read more

I couldn't recommend hiring Oh Lovely Wedding enough!!! Choosing your wedding photographer is one of the biggest decisions you can make when planning your wedding in my opinion - they are the artifacts your children and grandchildren will be looking at someday. We are sooo glad we hired Amanda to take our wedding photos!! She and her assistant were WONDERFUL to work with - kept my husband and I at ease/comfortable and made the process of taking wedding photos so much FUN (which is not an adjective I ever thought I would have been able to use when describing posing for photos!)!! They did a wonderful job of capturing the essence of our wedding including lots of amazing candid shots and documenting details I would have never remembered. The photos turned out absolutely beautiful. The biggest problem we have is going to be picking out which photos we want to print because there are so many amazing ones to choose from :) Thank you so much, Amanda!! read more

Amanda is AMAZING! I'm so glad that we chose Amanda at Oh Lovely Wedding for our wedding. She made the process so fun and easy. She got incredible photos of everything we wanted, including lots of detailed shots, and she is so efficient we were ahead of schedule. I highly highly highly recommend her! Could not have asked for a better photographer! read more

I can't even begin to explain how happy we are with our wedding photos done by Amanda at Oh Lovely Wedding. Not only do we have these beautiful photos to remember our special day for the rest of our lives, but also, the fact that we received them within 2 weeks after our wedding was amazing! This really helped to keep the excitement alive and everyone couldn't believe how quickly we got them back. Amanda is extremely professional and wonderful to work with. She made the whole process seem very easy and I really think she offers better prices than many other wedding photographers who don't provide the quality she does. She made us laugh and smile and just feel so comfortable the whole time. I was truly at ease our entire wedding day, in part knowing we were in such good hands with Amanda. read more

We found Amanda on Instagram and were so excited to work with her on our big day. My husband and I are from Houston, but got married in San Diego. All the e-mails and calls we exchanged throughout the months and weeks leading up to our big day helped to ease my stress. Every time we came to town, Amanda made herself available to meet us up to talk details and to answer all questions. On the day of, she made us feel so comfortable and got some amazing shots as we ran around the vineyard. We got sneak peeks extremely quickly after the wedding and the final edits shortly after. I look at our pictures every day to relive our wedding day and I hope to work with her again in the future! read more

There are not enough words to thank Amanda with Oh Lovely Wedding. She is one of the most professional and kind people we have ever worked with. She was easy to work with and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She captured our day beautifully and we are thankful to have these photos to look back on.

I LOVE AMANDA! SHE IS THE BEST. sure you could go out there in photography land and find and really good photographer, but let me ask you... is it Amanda? maybe your pictures will come out great, and you'll cherish them for years to come, but is Amanda going to be taking said pictures? if you answered NO, or hmmmm... idk... you're doing yourself and your future to be named memories a disservice my friends. Amanda does not simply take picture, anymore then Michelangelo paints chapels... No... future brides and grooms, I say no! she takes moments of your life that you're to busy enjoying and captures them in a way that will make you look back and say to yourself "I did not realize in the moment how truly amazing of a time i was having and how fierce you look." Amanda did our engagement photos and our wedding photos and they were breathtaking! there are only two women i think about on a daily basis, my wife, and Amanda. calm down... cause Amanda took the picture that sits on my desk that i see all day everyday. read more

Amanda is the absolute best! Such a creative with a calm spirit! The perfect person to be orchestrating the photography on your big day. Her assistant photographer is amazing too! Amanda did our engagement and wedding photos. We got such cool, unique, fun shots that fit our personality and go perfectly with our home! I would not recommend anyone else! She is amazing! read more

My husband and I couldn't have asked for a better photographer than Amanda and her assistant, Amber, for our wedding day!

We are IN LOVE with our photos and grateful for these snapshots that will last a lifetime!! Thank you so much Amanda! read more

The minute we saw Amanda's body of work, we knew we had to hire her to photograph our wedding! We planned our wedding from overseas and it was a pleasure to work with Amanda during the entire planning process. Communication with her was always prompt and clear. On the actual wedding day, she was cool and calm. Amanda and her assistant navigated the wedding day so effectively. She was exactly where she needed to be directing us through the shots. She never rushed us or made us feel as though we were having a formal shoot. The whole process was incredibly organic and fluid. Our wedding party had a fantastic time. The best part is when she sent us out photos. OH MY GOD. Every single frame was STUNNING! Her unique perspective during shooting and the mood of her edits are beautiful to the point of heartbreak. I can't stop looking at my wedding photos! Hiring her for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made! Thank you Amanda, your work is PHENOMENAL! read more

Oh Lovely Wedding captured our day perfectly. It was great working with Amanda, she gave us good direction and was so positive. The pictures came out beautiful, I could not be happier. Highly recommend!! read more

Finding a great photographer for our wedding day was VERY important to us and we were incredibly happy to find Amanda! She was recommended to us from a family friend and when I looked at her website, the style of her photos caught my eye immediately. Amanda is AMAZING at what she does! She was not only extremely professional but responded quickly to emails and also made us laugh and feel comfortable throughout our entire wedding day. Her organizational skills allowed us to complete all the photos we wanted in record time so that we could quickly join our guests at the reception. Amanda also posted a sneak peek of three of our photos on instagram that we absolutely love!!! She captured genuine smiles and we are looking forward to seeing the rest of our photos. :D read more

My goodness, I truly don't know where to begin with how incredible it was to work with Amanda. We worked with her for both our engagement shoot and wedding to say we were thrilled with the results would be the understatement of the century. Amanda is thoughtful, creative and finds the BEST atmosphere for your photos. Her courteousness is one of my favorite things as well; no matter the pressure, she will always make sure you feel comfortable. I cannot recommend working with Oh Lovely Wedding enough. read more

WOW. We knew Amanda was talented after viewing her work, but we had no idea just how INCREDIBLE she would be at capturing our wedding day. We are absolutely THRILLED with our wedding photos!! She was incredibly professional, discrete, kind, and accommodating. She makes you feel incredibly comfortable and assures you -- through her actions -- that you are in incredibly capable hands within minutes of arriving. Hiring a photographer whom you can have that much confidence in is a BLESSING as it allows you to just enjoy the day and not worry about how the photos are turning out or if the important memories are being captured. You can tell she truly has an artistic eye by where she chooses to take the photographs and how she positions her subject (whether it be the wedding party or the smallest details). What I love most is how she managed to capture all of the joy, love, and magic of the day in BEAUTIFUL photos without constantly instructing us or making her presence known. Any professional photographer can take "good photos," but it takes a truly outstanding photographer to correctly assess the vibe of the couple/wedding and capture it uniquely in beautiful photos. What sets her apart is her ability to not only understand and convey what makes a couple's love unique, but also honor what matters most to them. For all these reasons, we will eagerly recommend hiring Amanda to couples for years to come!! Thank you endlessly, Amanda, for the gift you've given us in beautifully capturing our special day. We cannot wait to cherish these photographs for years to come!! :) read more

What can I say about Amanda that's not already mentioned in other reviews. She is simply amazing! My fiancé and I just completed our engagement shoot and coming from a guy who hates taking pictures, Amanda made the entire experience so great. She had us laughing and smiling the entire time and our pictures turned out better than we could ever imagine. She also had our images to us just days after and our retouched images a few days after we picked our favorites. We cannot wait for her to shoot our upcoming wedding. 10/5 stars! read more

Amanda did an amazing job with our photography for both our engagement session and our wedding. We absolutely loved her style and she has a warm and welcoming personality that makes it easier to have fun and get into the mood for taking photos - especially since if you aren't used to taking photos it can be awkward at times. My husband and I did not feel awkward at any point in time. She took charge at important moments like wrangling all of our family together for the large arrangement of family portraits. She captured all of our important moments in such a magical and memorable way. We loved almost every single one of the 600+ photos we received from Amanda after the wedding. read more

I booked Amanda Doublin Photography for our engagement session and wedding. I cannot say enough good things about Amanda. She is a lovely person and a joy to work with. She is incredibly personable, but not in your face. She didn't bat an eye when my fiancé and I kidnapped her from the airport and told her about all the locations in the Bay Area that we had planned for our engagement shoot. She went along with our ideas and had a whimsical style of her own to keep us comfortable in front of the camera. I think part of Amanda's master plan is that she really takes the time to get to know you as a couple, and it shows. Our engagement photos turned out absolutely unique and captured the spirit of our love. I loved having Amanda there throughout our wedding day. She went with the flow and also made sure she captured what she needed. She blended in well with the party and brought a wonderful energy to the day. I also really admire and appreciate the way she runs her business. There can be so much crazy hoopla around planning a wedding and Amanda offers a sane alternative. Her pricing is really straightforward. She is extremely responsive, and always available and thoughtful throughout the entire process. We received our photos within weeks of the wedding (not to mention a sneak preview the same day) via slideshow at the closing of our reception. It told a beautiful story of our wedding day, and I will always cherish that! Best of all, we got a CD with all of the photos in high res, no watermarks, and without an extra charge. The photos came out fantastic, the experience was wonderful and the price was very reasonable - what more can you ask for. Check out her website, and you will see for yourself her beautiful and whimsical style and then you should book her to capture all of your most important memories. read more

Unprofessional. My fiancé and I were in the process of interviewing Amanda for a potential wedding shoot and we were liking what we were seeing photography wise. We asked about a clause in her contract that said we pay for the original shoot date AND the new shoot date, if for some reason the wedding day has to change. This sounded odd to us, not because of having to pay twice, but because there was no time constraint on this clause. From the time of signing and paying the deposit and the shoot date, if for any reason, the day changes, we'd have to pay double if she can't find another booking. Now I could understand this, if maybe there was a clause that said "within 3 months of shoot date" or something, but there wasn't. Next came the unprofessional part, rather than being helpful and explaining and understanding our concern. Amanda immediately wanted to drop us because we questioned her contract before signing. Just a heads up. Read contracts, do not get taken advantage of. read more

Amanda is personable, knowledgable, and flexible! She is prompt and reasonably priced for her talents. I can't wait to book her for our next big event :) read more

THE BEST! If I could give Amanda Doublin a 10 STAR rating I would. She photographed my wedding in November 2014 and the experience was nothing short of incredible from start to finish. Photography was by far the most important element to me personally for my wedding since the day just goes by wayyy too fast! I had seen Amanda in action at two other friends weddings in years past and was in awe with how she was barely noticeable at the events, yet captures the most incredible photos!!! A few years later, I knew I wanted her to capture my special day. She is such a wonderful, talented, easy-going person to work with who's not only professional but I felt like I had just another friend who was with me the whole day - super important if you start to feel a little stressed. Her prices were so reasonable compared to what I knew some of my other friends have paid for wedding photography...and they didn't end up with the quality photography that she provides. I attached a few of them as proof :) Thank you with all my heart Amanda, you're by far the best at capturing special moments in time in the most magical ways!! read more

I found Amanda on Instagram- I was browsing to find a photographer that showed what my fiancé and I wanted in our pictures. I loved what she had to offer. She suggested a park in La Jolla called Marian Bear Park and it was perfect! We felt awkward doing a photo shoot, as we have never done one before, but she made it fun and comfortable and the time flew by! She was very quick to get the pictures to us and to also edit them. She was overall great! Super nice and professional but also super easy-going and made us feel very comfortable about our pictures/poses. Thank you Amanda! I will be recommending everyone to her in the future. read more
