About Arrae Photography

Amanda Montgomery

Owner/Lead Photographer

My name is Amanda Montgomery and I am Arrae Photography based out of Grand Rapids, Michigan. The name Arrae (pronounced [uh-rey]) came from my first initial and my middle name, Rae, added an extra r and made a new word. I wanted something unique that was also me, the idea came to mind one day and it just fit. Being a photographer is all I've ever wanted to do with my life. When I was 12 I saved up my babysitting money to buy my first 'big time' camera. I formed Arrae Photography in 2003 as a part-time venture while I worked at local photo labs, went full time in 2008.

I'm here to have fun with you and create gorgeous images that don't feel like a chore to make. It's your wedding, I want you to have fun, and walk away with all the sweet memories to cherish forever. With over a decade of experience, I know what works best quickly and am well versed in ANY lighting condition.

    Amanda and her partner did an AMAZING job capturing our August 2024 wedding. My husband and I were blown away when we saw our gallery. She is a joy to work with and I highly recommend Arrae Photography to any couple.
