Family of five laughing joyfully while tickling youngest son during a fun and comfortable family photography session with Lux Marina Photography

Long are the days of dragging your family down to the mall and forcing them to smile awkwardly at the camera for photos. I’m a 90’s kid, so I remember these photo sessions being so uncomfortable.

Eugene Oregon Photographer

I am a lifestyle photographer based in Eugene, Oregon. I specialize in family, couples, maternity, and newborn sessions.  Through a playful approach, my goal is to foster a relaxed and fun photography experience. 

Parents who encourage their kids to be kids, while trusting the beauty of authentic connection, are my kind of families. While I provide direction as needed, I also step back and photograph your family not just for what you look like, but for who you are. Resulting in imagery that captures your family's unique story as beautiful works of art. 

I am also a wife, mama to two wild little things, yogi, nature lover, and writer. To me, family is everything. It's my main inspiration in life and I absolutely love connecting with others who share the same view.

If you believe your family photos should be about creating fun new memories as much as they should be about documenting your family's season of life, then I'm your girl! And I cannot wait to see what we create together.

I'm Amanda
