Amanda & Brendan | Florida Lifestyle Photography


Meet Amanda. Super cute little bit of a thing with a smile that could light the way home on even the darkest of nights. Amanda is married to Brendan. Tall, ruggedly handsome, with mad engineering skills that NASA has on lock down. Amanda is a photographer based in Titusville.  She contacted us a few months back wanting to take some new pictures of her and her hubby to update the family scrapbook.  Of course we were thrilled to have the chance to shoot another photographer and spend some time experimenting and trying out some new locations.  Amanda and Brendan were up for anything!  I mean anything!  They tromped around in a bat infested abandoned building with us.  Climbed down into some old ruins and even broke a high heel all for the sake of getting some awesome shots!  We had an amazing time with both of them and could have hung out all night.  In the end I think all the ant bites, dirty clothes (mostly mine), guano* and shoe catastrophes were worth it.  We got some gorgeous images and made new friends.  Thank you both for being so wonderful and doing anything we asked.  You guys rock the party!

*Note:  I could not stop using the word guano after I found out we were surrounded by it in the abandoned lumber yard.  Ace Ventura got a hold of me like woah!

We snapped a few quick head shots for Amanda’s new website while we were at it.  I just love this series of her laughing.  Doesn’t she have the best smile!?
