I've been a HMUA for a little over 12 years, worked in the big city (LA) and now back in my hometown raising our 2 littles doing what I love most! I've worked all over the industry! I'm a licensed esthetician and really have found my happy place here with all my beautiful brides! I still love working on sets, all sorts of events but there's just something about being there for someone on their big day that never gets old. I've been a bride myself and can attest to the overwhelming mix of emotions that come with planning such an important day. SO I'm here to ease a bit of that for you as your day of artist! xoxo Amanda

HI! I am Anastasia (she/her), your Northern California elopement and wedding photographer and so much more. My passion for photography began when I was a child.

ELEA Permanent Jewelry was born from my love for simple, meaningful pieces and the moments that stay with us long after they’ve passed. I believe jewelry should do more than look beautiful—it should tell a story, spark emotion, and feel personal. That’s what drew me to permanent jewelry: a lasting way to carry something special with you every day. The name ELEA was inspired by my daughter. It means “beautiful,” “light,” and “bright,” —a perfect reflection not only of her, but of the heart behind this journey. ELEA is a reminder of the light we carry, the love we share, and the connections that remain close, no matter where life takes us.
