Wedding photographer in Kentucky and beyond for classically joy-filled couples
Capturing timeless photos you can feel
It’s important you find someone whose work you LOVE - But I believe it’s just as important you find someone who will bring out the best of who you are in your photos! After all, my job is to capture the essence of the pure joy you have found in your forever partner. So, choosing someone you're comfortable with is key!
I’m a lover of adventure, dreamer & artist who is slightly addicted to coffee (okay, very addicted). Give me a good photo spot and great light and I can get lost for hours. I hope this guide gives you an idea of my style and how much I love serving couples!
I’m so thrilled you’re considering me for such an incredible day! I’ve served hundreds of couples on their big day, and the joy of the process never fades. Your wedding is a once in a lifetime occasion - The two of you are about to start the most challenging, rewarding, exciting, life-changing experience of your lives together - and choosing someone to capture that day through photography is a big decision. My goal is to set your mind at ease and let you know you’re in good hands!
Wedding investment guide
FEATURED IN:
Here’s what I'm all about-getting to know the heart of the people in front of my camera. Encouraging, supporting, laughing and even crying with you on the biggest day of your life. I love building relationships with my couples that will help set you at ease and ensure your wedding day is everything you’ve dreamed of. I hope to bring an extra dose of joy and fun to your day while giving you frame-worthy images you can't wait to hang.
Marriage has been one the greatest blessings in my life, and I am passionate about coming alongside couples as they begin this new journey. I care so deeply about both your wedding day AND what your relationship will look like after that last dance. My hope is that your wedding photos will forever spark joy and serve as a reminder of the abundant love you have for your lifetime partner.

Her photography skills are breathtaking and being around her sweet personality during our engagement shoot, our wedding day and the time in between made our wedding experience THAT more special!!

I've had many experiences with photographers over the years and no experience has been as wonderful as with Amanda Karis Photography.
and made my fiancé (who normally hates taking pictures) walk away from the shoot feeling comfortable and excited. We could not recommend Amanda Karis Photography more! I will definitely be using her services in the future

We wouldn't recommend any photographer more than Amanda. We wouldn't have wanted anyone else to shoot our day but you!

Amanda is kind, genuine, easy-going and made us feel comfortable right from the start.
She did both our engagement and wedding day photographs. She made us feel so comfortable and we had so much fun! The photos turned out amazing and I want to wallpaper our whole house with them. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect and ensure we have amazing photo evidence of an incredible day!

FAQs
DO YOU TRAVEL?
I LOVE destination weddings! I’m happy to create custom packages to fit your wedding plans wherever your dream day is taking place!
CAN WE BOOK YOU FOR ONLY A FEW HOURS?
Absolutely, although I don’t recommend less than 6 hours for a full-service wedding day (so we have time to get all those incredible shots you want with everyone you love!) Feel free to reach out for a custom quote.
HOW MUCH DO YOU EDIT YOUR PHOTOS?
I believe that your images should showcase the natural, authentic beauty and joy you bring to the world. I edit accordingly. (: My typical turnaround time is 6-8 weeks for your full gallery to be delivered!
DO I HAVE TO GET MY ALBUMS & PRINTS FROM YOUR STUDIO?
A lot of studios do the watermark thing or force you to print albums through them – we’re not big fans of that route. We do offer albums and prints through our studio, but the way we see it, you’ve invested a lot for your photos, so you should have the freedom to do what you want with them for personal use. We just hope that no matter what you print your photos!!!
AMAZING! I can’t WAIT to get to know you and I’m so thrilled you’ve chosen me. To book I require a signed contract and 50% retainer. I do work with couples though and offer 4 payments of 25%. Dates cannot be reserved until contract & retainer have been received. Contact me today and I’ll send you all the info!
