Boston photographer specializing in joy-forward storytelling
Documentary
storytelling
rooted in truth
Your photos hold your memories. And the most meaningful ones? Theyโre the moments you never planned, and never want to forget.
I document your most sacred relationships with intention.
While I bring an artistโs eye to every frame, my approach is rooted in documentary storytelling. The result is imagery that feels honest, evocative, and true to you โ photos that boldly celebrate your life and love as they really are.
You stay rooted in the moment. Iโll preserve the magic, so you can relive it again and again.

โAmanda made everything feel so natural. We didnโt feel like we were posing for photos, it just felt like we were smiling and happy because we were getting married.โ

Why, hello there, lovebirds!
Iโm Amanda, a Boston photographer documenting weddings, families, and brands across New England.
I exist to empower you to take up space and celebrate your truth joyfully and boldly.
I also like to make people laugh and scream with excitement because your memories should be just as good as the pictures we create.
โWhen searching for a wedding photographer, finding someone with experience photographing queer couples was our highest priority. Amanda not only has that but they specialize in it! We could not have chosen someone better to do our engagement and wedding photos. Besides the photos coming out amazing, Amanda and Mike made us both feel comfortable in front of the camera and their positive and fun energy definitely helped the day feel more special despite having lots of rain!โ

โIf I could give Amanda a 10 out of 5, I would! Between the natural raw talent of photography that Amanda has coupled with the professionalism, composure, and friendliness I experienced - I could not recommend Amanda Macchia Photography more. You can not find a more inclusive, fun, and radiant human being to help you document the big moments in life.โ
