Amanda Hankerson

I am an award-winning photographer and videographer. I create unforgettable photos and films for families and teach photographers increase profit by adding video portraits, attracting clients and closing sales.

Since earning a photography degree from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design in 2004, I have done all of the following things in my career:

>> Made countless gorgeous (photo & video) portraits of individuals, couples and families.

>> Taught scores of portrait and family photographers how to make Video Portraits and scale their businesses.

>> Photographed and/or filmed nearly 100 weddings. Woah!

>> Worked in a food photography studio and gained 15 pounds from being around food all day.

>> Worked as a staff museum photographer at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, where I documented thousands of art objects from around the world.

>> Received 2 generous grants to pursue my fine art projects.

>> Got accepted into several amazing MFA programs, decided not to go and relocated to Los Angeles instead.

>> Co-founded an advertising photo/film company called Hunt + Capture, which has gone on to win awards from Communication Arts and AdFed.

I have had the honor of creating meaningful imagery for individuals, families, non-profits, small start-ups, big companies and ad agencies.
