Dallas LDS Wedding Photographer
After more than six years of photographing weddings, you might think the magic would fade, that at some point it would feel routine. But the truth is, it hasn’t. Not even close. With every love story I document, I fall deeper in love with this work and the people I get to serve!
I’ve witnessed the joyful tears, nervous anticipation, and thoughtful details chosen with care. The laughter, the dances with dads, grandpas, and moms, the quiet in-between moments, and the joy-filled exits. I treasure it all. Each North Texas wedding is different, each story sacred, and each one an honor I don’t take lightly.
Before I ever lift my camera, I pause to pray and reflect on the couple in front of me, their love, their families, and the story unfolding. This isn’t just about beautiful images. It’s about preserving legacy and creating something that will be cherished for generations.
Every wedding I photograph is a gift, and every AJ Bride holds a special place in my heart!
When you choose Amanda Jenkins Photography, you’re not just booking a photographer, you’re choosing someone who will celebrate alongside you, cheer at your temple exit, laugh with you, tear up during your ring ceremony and daddy-daughter dance, and cheer you on through your sweet exit. I’ll capture it all with care, intention, and heart, like it’s my own story being told. The friendships and experiences that we’ve created with our AJ Couples lasts far beyond the wedding day and we believe that’s how it should be! I'm excited for you to keep scrolling to learn more about how being a AJ Bride isn’t your typical photography experience; it’s so much more!

Why I Still Get Teary at Every LDS Wedding
I believe every moment on your wedding day matters, every glance, every laugh, every little detail.
From the quiet, intimate touches, to the epic portraits, I treasure it all. Because together, those moments tell the full story of your love, and I’m honored to capture it!
My style is bright, emotional, joyful, and full of connection, capturing everything from soft golden light to the in-between moments that matter most. Because memories fade, but legacy lasts.
God created so much beauty in this world, including the people we love and the light we live in. It’s my honor to preserve both.
Every photo is made to be cherished for a lifetime, and I can’t wait to help you hold onto yours.
Scroll down to explore the Amanda Jenkins Wedding Experience, I’d be so honored to tell your story!
Whether you’re newly engaged or just dreaming about the day, it means the world that you’re here. I’m Amanda, a wife, sister, friend, and legacy photographer serving couples in North Georgia, Eastern Idaho, and beyond.
Your wedding day isn’t just an event, it’s the beginning of a story worth remembering.
Being an Amanda Jenkins Bride (#AJPBride) means more than receiving beautiful images.
It means being fully seen, celebrated, and served, with joy, purpose, and care.
My approach is personal and deeply intentional. I walk with you from planning to gallery delivery (and often into future milestones, too!). You’re not just hiring a photographer, you’re gaining a teammate who’s genuinely invested in your story and are here for your sweet moments!

Timeless & Emotional
01
Being an AJP Bride means more than hiring a photographer, you’re choosing someone who sees the beauty, emotion, and meaning in every moment.
AJ Brides value timeless, emotionally-driven photography that tells the full story of their day. They want joyful, natural images that feel soft, romantic, and real, not just posed photos, but the in-between moments that bring their love to life.
They care about both the experience and the art. From big portraits to quiet glances, from milestone moments to spontaneous laughter, an AJP Bride wants it all remembered.
Above all, she wants a deeply personal, high-quality experience, one that honors her story and leaves her with photos she’ll cherish for a lifetime.
If that sounds like you, you’re right where you belong.
And I can’t wait to walk through this season with you!
What makes a AJP bride?
kind words
"Amanda was the perfect complement to our photography team — a true professional with such a kind, easygoing energy. From the moment she arrived, she jumped right in and brought such a calming, helpful presence to the day. She captured beautiful, candid moments from different angles and perspectives, and her attention to detail did not go unnoticed.
Amanda made everyone feel comfortable, kept things light and fun, and helped make even the most chaotic group shots feel totally manageable. She worked seamlessly alongside the other vendors, and together they made the experience not only stress-free, but genuinely enjoyable.
We’re so thankful Amanda was part of our day — she played a huge role in helping preserve memories we’ll cherish forever."

"Amanda took photos of my bride and me this past summer in Piedmont Park, and wow, she is the real deal. You can immediately tell she’s a seasoned photographer who knows her craft inside and out. She made us feel comfortable right away, and honestly, as a guy, I was surprised by how much fun the whole experience turned out to be. Amanda has an incredible eye, her editing skills are top-notch, and the final photos blew us away. I can’t recommend her enough, thank you, Amanda, for capturing these moments so beautifully!"

Add-Ons to Personalize Your Experience
Looking to add a little something extra to your LDS wedding coverage? These optional add-ons are the perfect way to capture more memories and preserve them beautifully for generations to come. I have had lot of LDS couples do their weddings differently, so I wanted to show add-ons! If you have something else you're wanting me to cover for you wedding day, please let me know! These are ideas from the past! I am more than happy to created a custom package for you! Most of my couples use all 8 hours of the day!
For couples being sealed in the temple, a ring ceremony is a beautiful way to include family and friends who aren’t able to attend the sealing. I’ll document the ceremony, the emotions, and the meaningful moments shared with your loved ones so everyone can feel part of your wedding day story.
Ring Ceremony Coverage
Temple coverage includes photography before and after your sealing, capturing your temple exit, family celebrations, and portraits on the temple grounds. These moments are often some of the most emotional and joyful parts of the day, and I love preserving them with care and intention.
Temple Coverage
Reception coverage allows me to document the celebration that follows your wedding day, from heartfelt toasts and first dances to the laughter, hugs, and joyful moments shared with family and friends. These photos tell the story of the celebration surrounding the beginning of your marriage.
Reception Coverage
Many LDS couples host a luncheon for close family and friends after the temple sealing. Coverage includes candid moments, toasts, and the meaningful gathering shared with loved ones.
Luncheon Coverage
Many LDS weddings unfold over more than one day — from temple sealings and ring ceremonies to receptions or family celebrations. Multi-day coverage allows me to thoughtfully document each part of your wedding experience without feeling rushed, capturing the full story of this meaningful season with the people who matter most.
Multi-Day Wedding Coverage
A bridal session is a beautiful opportunity to photograph you in your wedding attire before the wedding day. Many LDS brides choose to do bridals at the temple, a garden venue, or a meaningful location. This relaxed session allows us to create timeless portraits without the time pressure of the wedding day.
Bridal Session
These heirloom-quality albums are designed with intention and love, perfect for reliving your favorite memories for years to come. I’ll walk you through the design process and help you choose the images that matter most.
Gifting a parent album or ordering professional prints is a beautiful way to say “thank you” and share the joy with the ones who’ve walked with you the longest.

What Makes This Experience Different
BUILD YOUR OWN WEDDING DAY TIMELINE
lds temple Weddings
This timeline is based on when your sealing begins. Coverage begins 30 minutes after the sealing start time, allowing space for the sealing, temple exit, and the natural flow of the day.
You can choose whether or not you’ll be having a ring ceremony, then enter your reception start time. From there, the tool automatically accounts for the break between temple photos and your evening events.
Every sealing day looks a little different, but this will give you a realistic, helpful overview of how your timeline could flow.
This timeline is a starting point! Once you inquire, I’ll help refine it to fit your locations, priorities, and vision for the day!
BUILD YOUR OWN WEDDING DAY TIMELINE
Whether you’re getting married at the temple or having a civil ring ceremony added to your day, you can plug in the details you already have to get a general idea of how your day might flow, and how much coverage time you may need.
Every wedding is unique, and I truly love chatting with my couples to create a timeline that fits their day perfectly. This tool is simply meant to give you a solid starting point, so you can feel more confident and prepared as you plan!
Civil Weddings
This tool builds a sample wedding day timeline based on the ceremony start time you provide. It’s designed to help you visualize how the day might flow, from getting ready to portraits to your reception.
Every wedding is different, and I always love walking through timelines with my couples in more depth to make sure everything feels calm, intentional, and true to your day. This tool is simply meant to give you a rough starting point and a general idea of what a timeline can look like!
This timeline is a starting point! Once you inquire, I’ll help refine it to fit your locations, priorities, and vision for the day!

She needs an incredible EXPERIENCE! The first step towards working with us is determining if we are the perfect fit for you! After getting to know you online, we’ll determine if we’re a match made in heaven and then we’ll move on to the booking process! ...

One of our favorite parts of the wedding day is our portrait time with the newlyweds and getting to meet our couple’s families and best friends!! After the wedding day, you’ll be featured on the AJP Blog the following TUESDAY!
