Mandee is my nickname, but Amanda works too. I'm a 34-year-old Graphic Designer/Photographer/Yoga Teacher. In my spare time, I like to experiment with makeup application, craft props for my shoots, and scout for new locations in my area. My specialty is to shoot fashion and artistic type of work where I can explore new ways to express my visions.

Born & raised in Connecticut, I'm a Graphic Designer/Photographer. Lived in Los Angeles for 5 years to pursue my creative career then ended up becoming a Yoga Teacher. When I'm not expressing my love for art, I teach Power/Buti/Yin to all levels & ages. Practicing for the last 11 years, sharing Yoga is my way of giving back to the world. My initial reason for practicing was to help heal my Scoliosis & to become more aware of my Hyper Mobility. Find me photographing live subjects, listening to Metal music while I lift weights, or making my favorite smoothies.
