welcome to a little heart photography

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 storyâ€Ļ

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.

LET’S TALK INVESTMENT

The pricing below is a starting point, and yes, many people book 9 hour (and a few rare 12 hour) wedding days. All of my wedding packages include a gallery of hand edited high resolution digital images presented to you in an online gallery that is easy to share with friends and family. Images are formatted twice, once for social media sharing and once in larger files to print.

Images are not watermarked and a print release is included with your contract.

Each package includes a complementary engagement portrait session. Why, you may wonder? Because I have never wanted to show up to someone’s wedding a complete stranger. The thought of that gives me the ick. I want us to get to know each other before your wedding day. I want you to make all the weird faces and loosen up behind my lens so when your wedding day arrives photography will be the last thing you worry about.

Second Photographer

Second photographers can be added to any wedding day package at $100 per hour. I have a six hour minimum for second shooters- which typically will get you from getting ready through to introductions.

Eight hours of a second photographer is included with my 10 hour package.

Albums

Albums can be added (or purchased as a gift) for any package starting at $400 for a 10 page 8x10. Parent albums (which are tiny replications of your album) start at $350 and are a great thank you gift for parents!

Albums are included for 8 and 10 hour packages.

Film

Film! New for the 2027 season. Add a full day of film (including the prints and digital negatives) on to any wedding day for $700.

FAQ’s

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

  • For events over 2.5 hours away from 01860, a stipend to cover a night hotel stay is required. Anything in the 4-5 hour range entails a two night stay.

  • 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 eight hours is included in every 10+ hour package. All editing for seconds is done by me.

  • 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 always so much fun.

  • 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.

    “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

  • “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

  • "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

  • "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."
