Capturing portraits full of love and life

Hey new friend!

Welcome! I’m Amanda- owner of A Little Heart Photography. I am a (north of) Boston based wedding and lifestyle photographer specializing in portraits full of color, love, and life. Thank you SO much for inquiring about wedding coverage! Here is a smidge of info about myself as well as my 2026 pricing info!

Your love story…

is your own unique experience as a couple. It is all encompassing and the most exciting time in anyones life. Finding each other and choosing each other begins the best adventure. Capturing a day where everyone you hold near and dear to you in one room is an incredible privilege. My couples value portraits full of love and emotion and vibrant true to life colors. They want the little in-between moments captured. The smiles and hugs exchanged with loved ones, the crazy uncle ripping it up on the dance floor, and being surrounded by all of the people you adore. My job as a wedding photographer is to not only capture the big moments, but all of those little moments happening around you on your wedding day. We work together to make you feel comfortable in front of my lens so when your day is here we are as relaxed as possible and we capture portraits that feel vibrant and full of life.

My Story

is full of love and adventure. I have been holding a camera since I was a wee little person. My childhood closet is stashed with thousands of photos that I have taken through the years. I love art in all forms, but there is just something about a portrait that makes my heart so happy. I am based out of Merrimac, MA- a tiny little blip of a town about 40 minutes north of Boston where I live with my husband, two little babes, and a giant goofy golden named Smalls. My husband and I met at work- a total Jim and Pam love story (iykyk) that culminated with a move to Maui when we finally got together. The love and support of my family drives me and I think that is deeply reflected in all of my work.

FAQ’s

and i mean it- these are asked all the time!

  • For events over 2 hours away, a one night hotel stay is required. Anything in the 4-5 hour range entails a two night stay.

  • Absolutely yes I do! There is a travel fee included in this pricing but also a deep discount to any of my bucket list locations!

  • Absolutely yes! I have a group of wonderful photographers who I regularly work with. Second shooters can be added to any package at the rate of $100 per hour with a six hour minimum for booking. A second shooter for six hours is included in every 10+ hour package.

  • Absolutely not! This is a great question that should be asked to all photographers. I take my time editing your portraits as I feel like this is really important. I want to provide my couples with the best product possible and using AI to do all of my editing feels irresponsible and very unpredictable.

  • Yes, of course! Your portraits include a print release, meaning you can print your photos anywhere you’d choose. Your gallery will be connected to my print company that I personally use, but you are under no obligation to use it! Just promise me you won’t take them to CVS! Ha.

  • While I would never force anyone to take engagement portraits, they are a great way to break the ice and get to know each other before your wedding date. In addition, these sessions are complementary and hold no monetary value.

  • Absofreakinglutely I do! Not only do I post tons of fun sneaks after your wedding, but I pop them into a gallery for you to download a week after your big day.

  • Gallery delivery is typically within 90 days after your wedding date, not including any vacation (or sick) time that might pop up! I hand edit each portrait and genuinely take my time making sure your gallery is absolutely perfect.

  • Albums are included in any 10+ hour wedding day and we work together as a team to design them using your favorite portraits. These bespoke albums are typically linen or leather bound with options to customize every part of the way!

Kind Words

  • Whitney's Inn Wedding Photography

    “Amanda’s eye and creativity is unmatched. She captured our day so beautifully, and I relive it over and over as I look at our album. Words can’t appropriately describe how wonderful her work is and how much it means to us to be able to look back at our day at photos that look straight out of a fall fairytale.”

    Ally & Michael

  • A newlywed couple sharing a kiss outside Tupper Manor, with the groom holding the bride in his arms. The bride is wearing a white wedding dress and holding a bouquet of white and pink flowers. The groom is dressed in a white blazer and black pants, standing in front of a white building with large arched windows and decorative columns, under warm lighting.

    “I can't thank Amanda enough for these photos! They are absolutely stunning, I can't wait to post them and print them. Joe and I went through them tonight and it was like we were reliving the day. Amanda was the savior of the day and I couldn't recommend you more!"

    Amanda & Joseph

  • A newlywed couple walking down the aisle at an outdoor wedding ceremony, holding hands and smiling, with guests seated on either side and a gazebo in the background.

    "Jeff and I would like to thank Amanda from the bottom of our hearts! These pictures exceeded any type of expectation that we had or our day. You can just tell they are filled with love and were treated with so much love by Amanda. I can't stop laughing and crying looking at all of these and I don think those emotions are ever going to fade!"

    Clare & Jeffery

  • A bride and groom walking on a wet path holding umbrellas in a park, smiling and happy on their wedding day.

    "If I could rate Amanda higher than 5 stars I would. My husband and I got married this September. Sadly it turned out to be the only rainy day in the whole month of September. We had planned for wedding portraits with the ocean as a backdrop and then a boat entrance to our reception. We had to hard pivot when we pulled up to the ocean and it was basically a hurricane. Amanda didn't even flinch. Not only did she reassure us that everything would be fine, she made sure we got on that boat. Even though she was soaking wet, she managed to capture some of the most gorgeous pictures I have ever seen. We can't thank her enough for the heart and soul she put into every picture. She captured every moment of our wedding day and we will never forget it."
