These fleeting days⦠the giggles, the chaos, the tiny arms wrapped around you ā they donāt stay little forever.
Iām so grateful to capture these sweet, real moments for families like this one ā clients who have become friends over time and whose beautiful babies Iāve had the joy of photographing again and again.
Thereās nothing quite like being in the photos with your little ones ā hands full, heart even fuller.
With Motherās Day just around the corner, now is the perfect time to step in front of the camera and celebrate the beautiful, wild, and precious bond you share. š
If this is the sign youāve been waiting for to book a session, here it is. āŗļø
Some friendships are like breathing ā easy, necessary, essential.
Life has a way of pulling us into different seasons, and sometimes too much time passes between the moments that really matter: the hugs, the real conversations, the laughter that feels like home.
This past weekend, with the spring blooms in full glory šø and the sunshine warming everything it touched āļø, I got to spend the kind of day my heart had been missing.
Michelle stepped in front of my camera, and something magical happened āØ.
She radiated beauty, strength, resilience, and a quiet kind of joy that only comes from living fully. Seeing her through my lens reminded me not just of how stunning she is on the outside, but of all the ways sheās even more breathtaking on the inside.
Thank you, my beautiful friend, for trusting me to capture you ā for showing up with so much grace, humor, and heart ā¤ļø.
(And if youāve ever thought about stepping in front of my camera ā even just for yourself, even just because ā maybe this is your sign. You deserve to see yourself the way the people who love you see you.)
Sneak peeks below⦠and so much more magic to come. āØ

I really should have my daughter model for me more often! šø We had to get out and take advantage of the flowering trees and the gorgeous weather this past weekend. The weather will only continue to get better, but those blossoms will sadly be gone in a week or so. š

Hey guys! š Itās been a minute since I introduced myself, so letās fix that. Iām Amanda Dee, the face behind the lens at Amanda Dee Photography!
Iām based in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, with a beautiful studio in the New Bohemia District (seriously, itās a dream space!), but youāll often find me traveling all around Eastern Iowa for weddings, portraits, and all the moments in between.
Iāve been a photographer for 20 years (I know⦠how?!), ever since I shot my first wedding at 22 and fell in love with storytelling through images. Over the years, Iāve captured everything from weddings and seniors to newborns, families, boudoir, and even births. Itās been an incredible journey watching peopleās stories unfold ā and getting to be the one to document them.
What keeps me inspired after all these years? The connections. I truly believe thereās something magical about freezing real, human emotion in an artful way ā giving people something beautiful to hold onto and look back on for years to come. š
Whether youāre new here or someone Iāve had the honor of photographing before, Iām so glad youāre here. Drop a āhi!ā in the comments or tell meāwhat kind of session would you book if you could?

Turning a parking lot into a fairytale scene? Just another day in the life of a wedding photographer.
This reel is a little peek behind the scenes + the final magic from one of the hottest, most humid days in June (I was drenched, not even kidding).
But the challenge? The pressure? The thrill of creating something beautiful out of nothing? Thatās exactly why I love this job.
Weddings keep me on my toes, and I wouldnāt have it any other way.

Watching families grow and capturing their most special moments is such a joy, and this session truly filled my heart! I photographed big brother as a newborn and one year old, and now Iāve had the honor of photographing him again ā this time as a playful, silly, and oh-so-sweet big brother to his brand-new baby brother. š
For this session, I leaned into what Iāve been focusing more on as a photographer lately ā creating newborn images that feel a little more relaxed, natural, and true to life. The snuggles, the giggles, the tiny moments that make these early days so meaningful. So thereās a good handful of those mixed in with the more posed shots.
This baby boy is already so loved, with parents who radiate joy and a big brother ready to be his lifelong sidekick. Iām beyond grateful to this wonderful family for trusting me again to capture their beautiful, growing story. Welcome to the world, baby boy ā your adventure starts here!

From start to finish, this wedding at Celebration Farm was pure magic! ⨠The sweetest couple, a wedding party that brought the energy, and even their adorable pups joined in for some photos (seriously, how cute is that?!). It was one of those perfect August daysāfilled with love, laughter, and just the right amount of silliness.
Being trusted to capture moments like these is something Iāll never take for granted. Forever grateful to tell love stories through my lens! ā¤ļø #WeddingPhotography #CelebrationFarm #IowaWedding #LoveAndLaughter #IowaCityWedding #CelebrationFarmWedding #EasternIowaWedding #IowaWeddingPhotographer #MidwestWedding #IowaCityPhotographer #WeddingInspo #WeddingDayMagic #CandidWeddingMoments #LoveInEveryFrame #TimelessWeddingPhotography #AuthenticLoveStories #FunWeddingParty #DogLoversWedding #WeddingWithDogs #JoyfulWeddings #SweetAndSilly #HappilyEverAfter
