Welcome! Please come in and stay awhile.
My name is Amanda Banning Pankhurst and I am a professional mom who happens to also be a professional photographer. So, from time to time, you may see a couple of family related posts on here.
I'm a documentary wedding and lifestyle portrait photographer. What does that mean? My style is very relaxed, natural, non-traditional and emotional.
I prefer to quietly observe, capture moments and preserve your memories. Yes, I'm the sneaky one with the camera.
Please browse the links and pages at the top of the site to view my portfolio and find details about pricing and packages.
I look forward to hearing from you!
Boden is growing up so fast. I can’t believe I just shot hist 6 month photos. It feels just like yesterday we were doing his 3 month photos. Babies do that I guess, grow up faster than you would like them to. It’s a good thing Stacey and Tommy are taking advantage of the first year package. They won’t miss a beat! Enjoy!
You know that song by Lee Brice? It’s been in my head ever since I’ve shot Stacy and Jason’s wedding this past Saturday at St. John’s Catholic Church and Hollywood VFD in California, MD.
With that, I’ll leave them with these words:
Best wishes to you both! Enjoy!
August 20, 2010 - 9:56 AM - You did such an amazing job for Jason and I. We couldn’t thank you enough! We hope you are still doing photography when we decide to have little ones! Thanks for all your help Amanda!
August 20, 2010 - 11:09 AM - Thank you so much! You are too kind.....I am sure I'll still be around. :-)
I used to, (and still do), sing this to my kids. There is something about the verse, ” twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are…” As an expectant parent, you cannot help think of who your child will be. My wish was always very simple. To have healthy, happy babies. I know that Maggie and Mike are no different.
Maggie is documenting everything about baby Lucas’ journey into the world. Someday, he will be able to look back and know that he was a very special surprise. He is almost here. Proud mama and daddy , could not be happier. He will be the answer to their prayers and the answer of their dreams. A wish fulfilled.
She is expecting a baby brother in another couple of months. She’s very excited to be a BIG sister. I had the privilege of photographing her mommy and daddy’s wedding as well as her entire first year. The Will family is almost complete!
August 3, 2010 - 11:15 PM - Our silly girl kept asking where you were after you left! These are great, can't wait for the book at the end of the first year!!
August 4, 2010 - 11:27 AM - LOL! That's cute! Thanks and I'll see you in Sept or Oct!
Miss Violet is the little sister to Charlotte and the sweet baby girl to Lindsey and Jon. She came into the world at the beginning of July and has her family wrapped around her tiny fingers already. She is such a sweet and calm baby. Taking these pictures was a joy.
Baby yawns are the best!
She's SO tiny!
Big sis, Charlotte, is very good with her.
Proud mama and papa.
Beautiful girls!
