amandasarahcherish B.A. McMaster University My passion begins with YOU. I then attended Brock University in order to become a secondary Fine Art Teacher. Your memories. Your story.

At a very young age my parents could tell that I saw the world differently and expressed what I saw through art. As I grew older I continued to express my creativity by studying fine arts in both high school and university. In pursuit of mastering my artistic skills and creative eye, I attended the Ontario College of Art and Design (OCAD) and later attended McMaster University to finish my fine ar

t degree. After working in many mediums (drawing, painting and printmaking) and successfully becoming an art teacher, I decided to use this knowledge to strengthen my photographic skills and portfolio. This small hobby grew into a passionate lifestyle. I willingly began photographing every event I could; I did not want to put my camera down and brought it everywhere (this is still true)! Through photography I am able to candidly capture life and tell a story through frames.

Forever obsessing over the details.

Not because they are things.

Because they become the backdrop to some of life’s most meaningful moments.

The flowers chosen with care.
The candlelight that softens the evening.
The tables where stories are shared, glasses are raised, and memories are made.

Long after the wedding day is over, these details become part of the feeling people remember.

The most beautiful celebrations are never about perfection.

They are about creating a space where the people you love feel welcomed, connected, and cherished.

One of the things I hear most often from couples is:

“Please make sure you capture our guests.”

And I understand why.

Long after the flowers have wilted and the music has faded, it is the people who remain at the heart of the memories.

The grandparents wiping away tears.

The friends laughing until their faces hurt.

The little ones owning the dance floor.

The hugs, applause, and quiet glances shared across a room.

While I am there to document your story, I am equally intentional about documenting theirs. The connections, emotions, and atmosphere that make your wedding day uniquely yours.

Because years from now, these photographs will remind you not only of how your day looked, but of who was there to share it with you.

Julia + Carter’s engagement session felt like stepping into a European garden hidden quietly within the city where they first met.

Soft evening light. Sculpted hedges. Timeless stone statues. Every part of this session carried a quiet romance that felt so naturally them.

What I loved most was how effortless their connection was. The calm. The tenderness. The way they simply existed together without needing anything more.

These are the kinds of moments that remind me beauty is often found in the in between.

Serendipity at its finest.

They stepped into this moment and made it entirely their own. Effortless. Magnetic. The kind of connection you cannot direct, only witness.

A retro boat drifting through the water, sun pouring in, a quiet nod to old Hollywood with a modern kind of love that feels both grounded and electric.

They brought the vision to life in a way that felt natural, unforced, completely them. Every detail, every glance, every in between moment carried something real.

This is just a glimpse. A few of the details that stopped me in my tracks.

There is so much more coming.

And ATX… you gave us the perfect stage for it all

The first look is never just the moment they see each other.

It is the breath before.
The quiet anticipation.
The way their hands find one another without thinking.

It is where the story begins to unfold in real time.

Soft.
Unscripted.
Fully felt.

Every glance.
Every touch.
Every in between moment that would otherwise be missed.

This is where time slows.
Where they come back to what matters most.

My role is to gently guide them into that space.
And let their story reveal itself exactly as it is.

Because the most beautiful moments are never created.
They are simply felt.

Postcards from New York City.

There is something quietly powerful about being a witness.

Not to perfection, but to real connection unfolding in places filled with life and history.

When you travel, you begin to notice more.
The way two people lean into each other without thinking.
The laughter over coffee.
The stillness of a moment that might otherwise pass unnoticed.

It reminds you that connection does not need to be created.
It already exists.

My role is simply to guide you back to it.
To preserve the in between, the unspoken, the real.

Because those are the moments that stay with you.

There is something so powerful about who surrounds you on your wedding morning.

It is not just getting ready.
It is being held.

Your bridesmaids are not just part of the day. They are your people. The ones who have seen every version of you. The ones who steady you, lift you, and remind you to be present in it all.

This is what a beautiful experience feels like.
Soft. Supported. Fully yours.

You are not carrying this moment alone.
You are surrounded by it.

There are moments in business that feel like growth.
And then there are moments that feel like alignment.

This is one of those moments.

What started as a serendipitous connection years ago has quietly unfolded into something so much bigger than I could have imagined.

I am beyond excited to officially welcome Kristy into Amanda Sarah Cherish Photography.

Kristy brings with her a beautiful blend of creativity, structure, and intention. With a background in graphic design, marketing, public relations, and education, she understands not only how something should look but how it should feel.

As a mother of three, she moves through complexity with a calm and grounded presence that is truly unmatched.

And most importantly, she cares deeply.

Moving forward, Kristy will be guiding you through your experience beyond the lens.
From album design and print production to framing and installation in your home.
Ensuring your memories are not just captured, but truly seen, felt, and lived with every day.

This next chapter is about creating something even more meaningful for you.
An experience rooted in care, beauty, and intentionality from beginning to end.

You have always been at the heart of everything I do.
And now, you are even more supported.

Kristy, I am so grateful for you.
This is just the beginning.

These images were created to stand on their own.

The way the light falls. The way each piece is placed. The balance of texture, shape, and shadow. Nothing rushed. Nothing forced.

Abby’s details became more than part of the day. They became art. Quiet, refined, and full of intention.

This is where I slow everything down and let each element speak for itself.
