About me

Hi! I'm Amanda (Panda)

The photographer behind Portraits by Panda, and I'm so happy you're here!

My love for photography started back in my high school photo room. I spent hours developing film in the darkroom, watching a little light and a few chemicals turn into something magical.

To me, photography is about so much more than just a beautiful photo. It's about capturing a moment in time, a memory of life just as it is.
