A little bit about me

Hi, I'm Amanda

Photography, to me, is more than capturing a beautiful image — it's about preserving a feeling.
At Salamander Studios, I craft cinematic portraits that illuminate the profound connection between horse and rider. Whether naturally illuminated or sculpted with studio light, each image captures the essence of your journey — both the quiet and the spirited moments. With a fine art perspective and a deep respect for detail, I seek out the subtle in-betweens — the pauses between strides — that speak to the soul.

Where it all Began

My journey began as a lifelong passion: I’ve loved animals—and horses especially—since I could crawl. From dressage, to jumpers, to discovering polo in college, each experience deepened my devotion and honed my eye for equestrian elegance.

Now, alongside my husband and my side kick pup Wiley, I ride as often as I can—and channel that connection into creating heirloom-quality equine portraits. Combining technical precision with heartfelt storytelling, I’ve turned that early love into Salamander Studios, where your story becomes an exquisite visual legacy.
