Hi! I'm Amanda! You know the couple that is always laughing and everyone notices the way that they look at each other? Those are the couples I serve. I make sure that when my couples look back on their photos, years later, they know that is exactly how they felt in that moment. I'd love to hear all about your story!

Amanda Rai herself was already booked for our September wedding, but she was able to book us with one of her associates, Caroline, and we could not be more thrilled with the results!! My husband and I were worried we would look awkward in our photos, because we don't ever do photo shoots, but Caroline walked us through a variety of different poses and the photos are fantastic. I especially am grateful that our package came with an engagement shoot, which we hadn't planned in the first place, but it gave us the opportunity to meet our photographer before the big day and get some practice being photographed. Amanda was always right on top of the communication, we can't recommend highly enough!
We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with this incredible photography team! Caroline, our lead shooter, was a dream to work with – her warmth, kindness, and professionalism made both our engagement session and wedding day so comfortable and fun. She has an amazing ability to put you at ease while capturing the most genuine and beautiful moments. On our wedding day, Chelsey joined Caroline, and she was equally wonderful – so helpful, attentive, and kind. Amanda was fantastic throughout the entire process. She was incredibly responsive and made sure everything ran smoothly, and we were so impressed with how quickly we received our photos. The final images are breathtaking, perfectly capturing all the love, joy, and special details of our day. We are beyond thrilled with the results and highly recommend this team to anyone looking for photographers who are not only talented but also a true joy to work with!
We couldn't be happier with our choice in Amanda as our wedding photographer! She is so kind, thoughtful, and easy to work with. Amanda’s team member Caroline came to help shoot our wedding. It's not often that my husband and I are in front of a professional camera but Amanda and Caroline made us feel so comfortable! We were absolutely blown away with how beautiful our wedding photos came out. She doesn't keep you waiting, her turn around time is extremely quick! We continue to recommend Amanda and her team to all of the newly engaged couples we know!
We highly recommend Amanda for couples looking for 'light and airy' wedding/engagement photography. We knew we made the right choice going with Amanda Rai Photography after our first meeting. Planning for a wedding can be stressful, but Amanda, our photographer (felt like our mvp wedding planner!), helped make us feel more at ease every step of the way. She pro-actively provided us detailed timelines, was flexible in adjusting our engagement shoot date due to rain and her warm demeanor always made it a pleasure to communicate with her. We purchased the wedding package which includes the complimentary engagement photoshoot session and we highly recommend couples to do this. The main reason why is it allows the couple to be comfortable; not just with her team, but in front of a camera. Whether it's the minor details or big moments; Amanda's team understands how to capture every aspect of the wedding. Both our engagement and wedding photos turned out to be perfect. Amanda's team delivered the photos ahead of schedule. We've received so many compliments on the photographs, but really the quality speaks for itself. We are so happy that we chose Amanda and her team to capture our love and guests on our wedding day.
If you are looking for an excellent wedding photographer who is personable, thoughtful, and talented, Amanda and her team are the ones for you! Our lead photographer was Chelsey and she was truly amazing to work with. At first, my husband and I did not want to do an engagement shoot, we didn’t think it was necessary but I am so glad we did! It gave us the opportunity to meet Chelsey and learn some poses we recreated on our wedding day. The day of our wedding, Chelsey made sure our day was timed perfectly and we got all of the photos we wanted. Chelsey was so organized, helpful and kind. Her presence honestly took a huge weight off my shoulders. One thing I knew I didn’t need to worry about on my wedding day was having great photos—and I was right! We received our wedding album and all of our photos are absolutely stunning. Of all my vendors, A Rai really knocked it out of the park. So incredibly thankful!
Amanda was a dream to work with! My husband and I don’t love to be the center of attention, so taking professional pictures is difficult. Amanda made us feel so comfortable and she brought out our personalities in each photo! When we got our sneak peaks back from our wedding photos, I almost cried at how BEAUTIFUL they were and how she truly captured our happiness and love that day!
Amanda and her team were professional, punctual, organized, and friendly. They are so talented, and I would highly recommend using her for your special day!
We are absolutely thrilled with our decision to choose Amanda as our wedding photographer! We just completed our engagement photoshoot, and the locations she selected in Portsmouth were breathtaking. The poses she suggested were both easy to execute and looked phenomenal in the final photos. Our friends and family have been raving about the photos we've shared with them so far!!
Throughout the photoshoot, Amanda made us feel completely at ease, and we had a fantastic time. Her friendly and professional demeanor made the experience enjoyable and stress-free. We couldn't recommend Amanda more highly and are eagerly looking forward to seeing the magic she will create with our wedding photos!
Amanda is great! We booked Amanda Rai Photography about a year and a half out from our wedding because we loved her light and airy style and wanted to make sure we got her for our date! We just had our engagement shoot with her and love how the pictures came out! She was so easy going and great to work with. We can’t wait for the wedding ones and will give an update on those!
Amanda was absolutely amazing. She makes you feel so comfortable even if you ‘aren’t a picture person’, talking you through the whole thing. The engagement photos are perfect and I can’t wait for the wedding ones!
We booked Amanda for our wedding which is a year out based on her photography and so far we are extremely impressed. We have had an engagement shoot with her so far; not only have the pictures come out amazing but she has been extremely organized and has already communicated timelines with us for the wedding. I will post an update after the wedding, but we feel confident that she and her team will do an amazing job of capturing our big day.
We are so excited to be working with Amanda and her team to photograph our upcoming wedding. Chelsea is our lead photographer and we had so much fun at our engagement shoot and the photos came out so beautiful. She and Amanda have been really responsive and great to work with so far. We have felt very valued and important throughout the process. We are really looking forward to having them photograph our wedding and can't wait to see the pictures!
Amanda Rai Photography is undoubtedly well-organized, running her business with efficiency. We appreciated her prompt communication leading up to the wedding, and her photography style aligned with our preferences, beautifully capturing the essence of our day.
However, there were some downsides. Attention to detail and direction was lacking, with dress and flower adjustments overlooked. We were disappointed to find that a certain section of our day was missing from our wedding album, particularly the getting ready photos of the groomsmen and my husband with his parents.
While Amanda's light and airy style impressed us, the overall experience lacked a personal touch. We didn't feel entirely comfortable behind the camera and felt somewhat like just another wedding on the schedule.
We would recommend her for aesthetic style and efficiency but suggest designating someone in your wedding party to pay close attention to detail for you.
Amanda and her team are AMAZING! From our first conversation with Amanda, she was so friendly and organized and we knew right away that she was the perfect fit. On top of her beautiful light and airy pictures, what makes Amanda and her associate team stand out is their phenomenal customer service. When you book with Amanda she sends you a thoughtful welcome package including a very informative booklet with everything you need to know about wedding photography. She also works with you to come up with a very organized timeline to ensure the wedding day runs smoothly. Amanda is very responsive and gets back to you within 24 hours (often quicker). We had her associate team Melissa and Caroline for our wedding day. Melissa and Caroline were both such a pleasure to work with. They were so kind, sweet and easy to work with. We cannot get over how great the pictures are. The turnaround time was also so quick (<1 week for the engagement pictures and <1 month for wedding pictures). If you are looking for a wedding photographer - Amanda and her team are the best!
We booked Amanda as our wedding photographer after talking with her on the phone once. Her process to get to know you as a couple and take part in your wedding experience is unmatched. We recently took engagement photos with her as part our the package (perk of booking with her!) and she not only made us feel totally normal and relaxed, but like a long lost friend! She returned the pictures in record time and they are AMAZING. By far my best decision so far while planning my wedding, and knowing she will be there with us on our day gives me so much peace of mind.
We cannot imagine a better wedding photographer! Amanda and the team were amazing through the whole process. Amanda does a great job upfront communicating all the information you need to know in preparation for your big day. We were so thrilled with our engagement session and it was a great way to meet Amanda and get a feel for what to expect on the wedding day. Amanda and Melissa were the best photographer partners the day of our wedding! They maintained the perfect balance of capturing all the right shots that we'll cherish forever as efficiently as possible so that we could spend the majority of our time enjoying our big day with all our family and friends. And they made everything so fun and relaxed! Amanda is an expert at her craft and clearly loves what she does. We feel so lucky that we found her!!
Amanda has been so helpful throughout the wedding planning process! She is on your team from day one and makes everything fun & simple. Bonus points also to her wonderful associate, Melissa!
Amanda is an amazing photographer, her light and airy style makes the most beautiful photos. On top of that, she's a super proactive communicator, well organized, and always anticipates what a couple needs throughout the process!
Highly recommend Amanda Rai Photography! We just had our engagement photo shoot and loved how the photos came out. Amanda was very professional and great at what she does! We can't wait to have Amanda and her team photograph our special day.
I can't say enough amazing things about Amanda and the A Rai team! I am beyond thrilled that I found Amanda on social media and hired her for my wedding. Amanda and her associate Caroline were a dream to work with. From the start, Amanda was very attentive it is very obvious that she wants brides to enjoy the planning process, engagement shoot and of course the wedding day. I was beyond amazed by my engagement photos and knew that the wedding photos would be even better! Her turn around time is extremely quick and she does not keep you waiting to see her stunning work. I am grateful for Amanda sending the cutest welcome gift, creating a timeline of events for the wedding day, and for being responsive throughout the entirety of my planning process. I will continue to recommend Amanda and her team to every bride to be.
My fiancé and I just received our engagement photos back from Amanda and her team and could not be happier! From the very beginning Amanda has been incredible to work with, very helpful, willing to walk you through the process and makes you feel so special. We were paired with Caroline as our lead photographer and we immediately clicked with her. She made us feel at ease in front of a camera, I know she will be such an asset on the wedding day! We received our photos quickly after our session and know our wedding is in the best hands. To anyone who is looking for a photographer for their wedding I cannot recommend Amanda Rai Photography enough!
I don’t know if I can put into words how great Amanda and her team was-if you are thinking about booking her, READ THIS REVIEW. Photography was my #1 goal; we spent hours reading reviews, interviewing photographers, and I knew from our first interview with Amanda that she was perfect for us. Not only is she SO organized (as someone who is type A this was fantastic) but she truly makes you feel like you are her friend. She is warm, bubbly, and encouraging which is what you want on your wedding day.
Fast forward to the wedding-she made me and my entire bridal party feel SO comfortable. She knows exactly how to pose you to get the perfect shots, and she is a true hype girl the entire time. THE PHOTOS ARE STUNNING (seriously), and she even has an Ipad where they are up at the wedding to see a sneak peek. She’s so prompt at returning photos, and so communicative. We also just got a surprise in the mail of a framed photo she sent us.
My mom and entire bridal party are still RAVING about how fantastic she was and how beautiful the photos are. Don’t walk, but RUN to book Amanda, I promise you won’t regret it :)
Amanda and her team are INCREDIBLE! A few years ago, we worked along side them as a vendor at a wedding and just clicked. From that day on we stayed in touch and became close with her and her associate Melissa. We knew that when it was our turn we had to have them be there for our day. Finally our day came and they were there every step of the way. The ARai team really stands out from the rest because of how personable, helpful and incredibly genuine they are. When choosing a photographer for the biggest day of your life, choosing someone whose photo style fits yours, but also make sure you click with them as people. It makes the world of a difference. When you book with Amanda she sends the cutest welcome package with little gifts and a booklet with all the details and info you will need to know. The organization made our day so smooth! Melissa and Chelsea were our photographers for our day and we absolutely love our pictures. They truly couldn't have captured our day any better. ❤️

She also works with you to come up with a very organized timeline to ensure the wedding day runs smoothly. Amanda is very responsive and gets back to you within 24 hours (often quicker). We just had our engagement pictures done with her associate Melissa who was lovely! Melissa made my fiancé and I feel comfortable and natural during the shoot and we cannot get over how great the pictures are. The turnaround time was also so quick (<1 week for the engagement pictures). If you are looking for a wedding photographer - Amanda is the best! We cannot wait to work with Amanda and Melissa for our wedding!
I cannot say enough good things about Amanda and her team! Amanda and Chelsey shot in our wedding a few weeks ago and our guests are still raving about not only the GORGEOUS photos but how kind and professional Amanda and Chelsey were. Multiple people pulled me aside and said “I’ve never seen photographers so happy to be photographing a couple” which warmed my heart. They made the whole day so incredibly fun and easy.
If you haven’t booked your wedding photographer yet, run and inquire with Amanda Rai Photography ASAP. I have not even had my wedding yet and I could not recommend her and the ARai associate team enough. From our first conversation, Amanda was extremely personable, professional and informative - I felt like I was communicating with a friend right off the bat which is great to have in a photographer that you’ll be working so closely with! We met Caroline, who is part of the associate team, in Portsmouth, NH for our engagement session and we couldn't have left happier. Caroline was extremely fun to work with and the shots came out beautiful - she knew the perfect spots and was able to capture exactly what we were hoping for. Along with the photos being great, we received them much fast than I expected and were able to share them with our friends and family who loved them! VERY quick sneak peeks (which everyone wants to see right away!) and a full album pretty quickly after. I can’t wait to continue to work with Amanda and have Caroline be the lead shooter at our wedding in September 2023!
We could NOT be happier with Amanda Rai Photography and her amazing team! Caroline took the most beautiful engagement photos and Melissa and Morgan made the perfect team during our wedding day.These ladies truly know how to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera, totally hype you up and make your vision come to life! Our wedding gallery blew us, our family and friends away, so thank you!! :)
Amanda and her team are awesome. Immediately, we felt so comfortable with their energy, vibe, and professional presence. I love having a team of women who are empowered, structured, and love to work together. It was amazing to do an engagement shoot before the big day to get more comfortable in front of the camera and be able to connect with our lead shooter. We were so excited to see Chelsey again for our wedding day. We knew that we were in good hands. She kept us on timeline and had great notes of all the different shots I wanted. She and Mel created total magic that day and made us feel calm and confident. Since we were working against wind and weather, they were quick to improvise. After the sneak peek, Amanda was so quick to get us a bunch more photos almost right away and ahead of schedule for the rest of the photos! It was such a treat! She is such a great business owner and really takes pride in her product. I had requested a few minor tweaks to some photos and she responded so quickly and made them look perfect. We have definitely found our photographer for the future family photos in A Rai as well don't wait - BOOK THEM NOW!!
We have had such a great experience with Amanda Rai Photography so far! Chelsey shot our engagement photos and we had such a blast with her and they came out amazing!! Amanda is so responsive and helpful with wedding planning and we are so excited for them to photograph our wedding day!!
We absolutely loved working with Amanda for our engagement photos! My fiancé and I were nervous for the photoshoot, but Amanda was so kind, funny and relaxed during it that we truly had a blast. She helped guide us through every pose which was so helpful and took all our nerves away. The entire album came out AMAZING - we could not be happier with the photos! She also got our sneak peek of the photos out that same night which was so much quicker than we anticipated. We love the photos so much and cannot wait to work with her during our wedding next year. She is truly the best!
If I could give more stars, I would!
After speaking with Amanda on the phone for our first get to know you call, I knew immediately I wanted to book. She seemed so fun and passionate about her job.
Her associate, Caroline took our engagement shoot the beginning of August and I am OBSESSED! The light and airy lighting on the pictures is exactly what we were looking for! They are very organized and also very responsive! I am so excited to have them for our wedding day!!!
We hired Amanda as our wedding photographer for our wedding at Dexter’s Inn in July 2022 and she did a great job. Amanda was super easy to work with, friendly, and listened to our many requests for combinations of photos. She and her second shooter captured the vibe of the day including getting ready, the ceremony, and the reception. Her photos are wedding magazine quality and she captured so many beautiful shots.
Amanda and Caroline are great to work with so responsive and very professional. Caroline made us feel so comfortable at our engagement shoot and delivered with some great photos! We’re so happy to be working with Amanda and the team!
Amanda herself is amazing, but even better is knowing that her associate team will also knock it out of the park! Due to some rescheduling (thanks, COVID), my husband and I ended up with her associate team and LET ME TELL YOU did they do a great job! Not only did the ladies show up early, but they stayed a bit late to help us capture a few last-minute shots. They were so friendly, helpful, and excited to be there. They worked great with the videographer, each team building off the other (which worked out perfectly)! The team has been perfectly curated by Amanda to have not only great photography skills, but to be kind and just a wonderful addition to the wedding day. We felt like they were additional guests at our wedding (in a good way) because they were so fun to be around!
The ladies remembered very specific details that we only mentioned once or twice and made sure to photograph those things! They were firm and kind with our bridesmaids, groomsmen, and family to make sure we got all the necessary shots! Really, you couldn't ask for more.
Also, Amanda was so quick to help when we needed to reschedule. We were originally scheduled for 2021, but couldn't end up doing our wedding on that day. She jumped right into helping us figure out how to reschedule and we couldn't be more grateful for her flexibility and willingness to help us out during COVID!
The gallery was delivered EXTREMELY quickly (we were married on 7/30 and it was delivered within about 3 weeks) and we are so excited to look through it more in the upcoming days/weeks.
Thank you again, Amanda, Chelsey, and Melissa!
We had our engagement photos taken with Amandas’s associate, Melissa, and we have nothing but incredible things to say about their work, attitudes, and ability to walk us through the process! From day one of signing our contract they laid out the entire process from contract signing, to creating a custom timeline for our wedding which I received within 1 week of booking.
During our engagement photo session Melissa was SO helpful to make sure we had the best photo turnout. She captured all of the love and joy my fiancée and I felt toward each other in all of our pictures. Amanda was able to get our entire session back to us within 3 days!!
Just… wow. We are thrilled to continue to work with Melissa and Amanda on our wedding day next June! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I can't recommend Amanda and her team enough! We were married in June 2022, and have already received our wedding gallery. The photos came out better than we could have imagined, it's hard to choose our favorites! She does a great job of capturing the true emotions of the day and making everyone look very natural in front of the camera. She is also such a fun person to be around and was very organized throughout the entire wedding process. We are so happy that we hired her for our photography!
Amanda was the photographer for my brother in laws wedding and after meeting her I knew I needed to book her for our special day. Unfortunately Amanda was already booked when I reached out but I was so happy to hear that I could hire on of her associates, Chelsey, to be there instead. Amanda was still involved through the whole process and Chelsey was so amazing to work with! I would highly recommend ARai photography for your special day!
I cannot say enough incredible things about Amanda. She made the entire photography experience a BLAST and our photos could not be any more gorgeous. I am blown away by her artistic abilities and cannot WAIT until I can show off my album! She is an amazing person and I am so lucky I found her!
We just had our engagement photo session and Chelsey was amazing and the photos came out beautifully! The turn around time is also very fast. Very excited to see what our wedding photos will look like!
This is so delayed but I just wanted to take the time to write a review because Amanda has been an absolute delight to work with! We got our engagement pictures done in September last year and she did an incredible job and got them to us really fast. She makes you feel comfortable and the whole process felt effortless even though we were both a little nervous. She has been super responsive and is very organized and has helped us narrow down a timeline for our wedding coming up. I could not recommend her and her team enough! One of our best decisions and I am so looking forward to seeing more of her work in a month from now for our wedding!
Amanda and her associates were very prompt and professional. Their friendliness put the whole wedding at ease which really showed with the beautiful pictures. As the mother of the bride I would highly recommend Amanda Rai Photigraphy.
Amanda and her associate were a total dream team!
Not being from New England , we found it daunting to try and find the perfect photographer for our big day! After finding Amanda’s website and seeing her style and photos I instantly fell in love and reached out! From the moment we first spoke, to the day of our wedding ( and past) Amanda has been prompt and professional to work with. She has spent hours answering our many questions, as well as curating the perfect photos of our wedding day!
On our actual wedding day Amanda arrived early, and quickly jumped into taking photos! She made the process fun and enjoyable, while still keeping us on time and moving along! Her sense of humor and relatability made it feel like we had known her and her sweet associate, Caroline , for years!!
The final photos were delivered in record time , and instantly brought tears to our eyes! The way she was able to capture such raw, real and tender moments in such beautiful style, was breathtaking. The format that the photos were delivered in were easy to navigate and very organized!
Before our day was even over my husband and I had already decided we will be gladly be trekking our way up to New England, each time we need photos done!
To say she exceeded our expectations and hopes , is an understatement!
We are so happy that we hired Amanda as a photographer! From our first meeting, I was reassured that she was professional, organized and personable. She thinks of all the extra touches, including sending a booklet to help you stay organized for everything wedding photography related.
We recently had our engagement photos and LOVE them! We took them at Great Island Commons (Amanda's suggestion) and they came out beautiful. They captured our personalities, and the lighting was stunning. Amanda was friendly, encouraging, and made us feel like rockstars (even though we are awkward!)
We are so happy we chose her and can't wait for our wedding photos!
We could not be happier with how our wedding photos turned out! Amanda and Morgan were wonderful to work with, they made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and made sure to capture all of the shots we wanted. You spend a lot of time with your photographer on your wedding day and Amanda is genuinely so wonderful and the kind of person you want to have around you! Having Amanda Rai Photography capture our wedding was on of the best decisions we made, thank you Amanda!!
Original Review:
Amanda is amazing, my fiancé and I couldn't be happier with our engagement photos! She is so easy to work with and helped coach us through the shoot making it enjoyable even though it was only 20 degrees outside. She posted a sneak peek of the photos that same night and the full gallery later that week. We can't wait for her to photograph our wedding!
My fiance and I chose to work with Amanda and Melissa for our wedding photos and we could not be more thrilled with that decision, and have actively recommended Amanda Rai Photography to our newly engaged friends, too! Every interaction we have had with them has been so pleasant. They're incredibly friendly, easy to work with, and their work is amazing. We are in love with our engagement shoot pictures. They are beautiful and such high quality!! Based on these we can't wait to see how our actual wedding photos turn out!
From the first email I received back from Amanda Rai Photography I knew that they were going to be the perfect match for our wedding.
We started with a Zoom with Amanda, and learning about her associate team that we would be working with, which made both my fiance, Travis, and I more at comfortable and excited with the entire process doing photos! We weren't dead set on any certain place for to do our engagement photos, so we used one of their suggestions, Strawbery Banke. Caroline was INCREDIBLE to work with. She made us both feel so comfortable and joyful while she was capturing all the different shots. When we were walking back to our car at the end of the evening, Travis said " Caroline is the best hype woman ever" and I couldn't agree more, we are beyond in love with the images and moments she captured. I keep picking a new favorite everyday!!!
We can't wait for the wedding day with Amanda Rai Photography, Caroline & The Associate team (:
Amanda & Caroline are so professional and timely with responding to messages, setting up our engagement shoot, and helping us plan for our big day!
The day we originally planned for our engagement pictures, it was supposed to rain. Caroline was so kind and accommodating with rescheduling our photoshoot. In the end, our engagement pictures turned out better then we could ever imagine. Amanda sent the final pictures to us within the week of having them taken. The "sneek-peak" and blog post were an added bonus! Don't look any further for a wedding photography service, Amanda Rai Photography is the BEST! :)
We booked Amanda's associate team team for our 2022 wedding & just had our engagement session with Chelsey - an absolute dream - and we are BLOWN away. The photos capture us perfectly, and her easy-going personality made everything feel totally natural. We're so lucky to get this glimpse into what our wedding photos will look like and we can't wait!!
Amanda and her team were an absolute joy to work with. From day one, Amanda was organized, flexible, and professional. She worked with us through wedding date changes due to Covid, as well as a California time difference. Her team, Melissa, Caroline, and Morgan were so calm and amazing on our big day. They seamlessly shot numerous locations and navigated us through a jam packed wedding week and day of timeline. The images are out of this world beautiful and exceeded our expectations! If you are looking for easy going, organized, positive photographers with a natural, airy look these are your people! My husband and I joke that we wish Melissa could follow us and capture our daily adventures!
We're working with Amanda for our April 2022 wedding and we're SO excited. We just had our engagement shoot and we can't be happier with the result. Amanda made us feel so comfortable, which is difficult to do for a photoshoot like this! She captured us perfectly and we know we're in great hands for our wedding next year.
Amanda and Chelsey are simply the best! If you are looking for a bright and airy style photographer in the NH area, then Amanda Rai Photography is the one to go to! I am absolutely blown away by how amazing our wedding photos came out! Her photographs are so natural and she incorporates so much movement into her photographs. Not everything is your standard portrait, which I love. They really captured the joy we felt in all the photos. There isn't one photo I wished I had or any shot I felt we missed out on. They captured it all!!! It was so hard to choose what I should share here because we have too many favorites to count.
Outside of the team's photography skills, Amanda puts in the extra touch to make her clients feel welcome and excited for their big day! After working with us at my best friends wedding and now ours, we are really going to miss seeing her! We are so happy we chose her and her team! I'd recommend Amanda Rai Photography to anyone we know!
CHOOSE AMANDA! She has gone above and beyond in all aspects of wedding photography. I have recommended her to all my closest friends. Her positive attitude, contagious smile, eye for detail, and professionalism are just a few of the million reasons why she is the best at her job. Her staff is also just as amazing. I feel like she captured the true joy, candid moments of laughter, and the perfect flower girl twirls. I will treasure these photographs forever, in wall hangings, albums and gifts to our loved ones. I look forward to working with Amanda in the future for family portraits and all other photography needs.
I couldn't have asked for a better photographer to capture our wedding! We picked the associate package with Melissa! I knew from our first meeting with Amanda this was exactly what I wanted in a wedding photographer! Melissa and Amanda were so professional, caring and loving! I had a winter wedding and had a specific vision as to what I wanted. Melissa did a FANTASTIC job capturing exactly what I wanted! I knew I could trust her to capture everything and it was so fun!! She didn't hesitate to jump into the snow and get the most perfect pictures! Thank you both so much!! Amanda Rai is everything you want in wedding a photographer!
Amanda was so wonderful for our engagement shoot! She sent a customized book that gave you tips on what prepare for/expect and how to coordinate. She has been so helpful through the entire process and helping coach us through the shoot.
Our wedding is in the winter of 2022 and she has been so flexible with coordinating a time for our engagement pictures so we could have warmer weather! She sent our album so quick and the photos came out way better than my fiance and I imagined. It was so awesome to see the end result! Really glad we went with Amanda, cannot wait to share our day with her!
Amanda was such a pleasure to work with during our engagement photo shoot! She is super professional and directed us the whole time, which was awesome because we had no idea what we were doing! Amanda also knew we were on a bit of a tight timeline to send out our Save the Dates so she had all the photos ready within a week! It was amazing! She always responds quickly to emails and provides lots of helpful resources to prepare for the photoshoot. We sincerely love our photos and working with Amanda! Totally recommend.
We are loving having Amanda and Melissa work with us for our wedding. They have both been extremely informative and responsive throughout this whole process. Our engagement photos turned out great and we are excited to see the photos from the big day in August!
We are so happy that we found Amanda when looking for a photographer! We didn't know where to start at all and she immediately made us feel as ease during our first Zoom meeting. After that we didn't even need to think about it! We knew she would be the perfect person to tell our love story through photography. She was very flexible with our engagement session which we moved a few times due to inclement weather. During the engagement shoot she also knew exactly how to get us to feel comfortable and laughing the entire time. We can't wait to do this all again on the big day with Amanda!
Amanda was the first vendor my fiance and I booked for our wedding and it was the easiest and best choice we made! My fiance and I were not very comfortable around the camera but Amanada made our wedding day so fun and enjoyable! She made us feel right at home from the get go. She was also SO great working with us remote trying to plan a wedding in Maine from Texas and flexible with all of our venue changes due to COVID. I cannot say enough amazing things about her! Thank you amanda for making our day amazing and for all the BEAUTIFUL pictures you captured!
We had a destination wedding in New Hampshire in October 2020 and hired Amanda for our photography which included engagement pictures and pictures on our wedding day. We could not have been luckier to select Amanda because she made us feel comfortable in front of the camera immediately, truly cares about her couples including reaching out multiple times during the craziness of 2020, and is honestly one of the nicest people I’ve ever met! We just got our pictures back from the wedding day and not only was it weeks earlier than we were expecting, they are BEAUTIFUL and captured our day perfectly. I really don’t think our day would’ve been as special without her. If you are looking for a photographer in the New Hampshire area, I cannot recommend her enough!
My fiance and I booked Amanda for our September 2020 wedding. Right away we knew we found an amazing photographer. Not only does she go above and beyond for the couples she works with, but she is also extremely organized and professional. She makes everyone feel comfortable and makes the process stress free! We can't thank Amanda enough for everything and would highly recommend her!!
OBSESSED is an understatement. I truly have never felt so beautiful and felt so much love through images until I saw my wedding pictures! Amanda and Melissa were a dynamic duo and captured the most amazing pictures of our wedding day- I could not have asked for anything more! My Fiance' and I are the least photogenic couple out there but somehow these gals were able to work their magic and capture all of the love and energy on our wedding day (Not to mention round up our 16 person wedding party together for photos). Leading up to our wedding day Amanda was so organized and helpful in the midst of such a chaotic process! Hire Amanda Rai Photography- you will not be disappointed!!
