The people of this world believe in Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl - and Steven! It's been a few years now since we, along with Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl, Greg, and Connie, tearfully watched Steven drive away in his little car, on what will surely be an epic soul-searching quest to find out who he is on his own, not as a Crystal Gem, not as a Diamond, not as an intergalactic one-man peace corps, but as a sixteen-year-old kid figuring out what he wants to do with his life....

It is currently 6:04 a.m. I have not yet been to sleep. My anxiety has been so incredibly high for the past couple of days, and it's just been so incredibly hard to deal with. My body has chosen this sleep-deprived hour of the pre-dawn morning to culminate in that most hated crescendo of anxiety - the panic attack. I have panic attacks a lot more often than I'd like to admit, and let me tell you, they are absolute hell....

Hello, world. My name is Amanda. I currently live in Lockport, IL, which is about a half an hour outside of Chicago. This is my new place for sharing my life with you. My life is not glamorous. There is not a lot of excitement or many thrills in my day-to-day existence. Maybe there will be when I have more money and free time, but right now, that's not my focus....

I’m Amanda, and this is my new lifestyle blog.

Good news for anyone interested in having any photography done by Op Res! I've been out of the game for awhile due to equipment shortages, but I should be getting new equipment SOON, which means I will be able to make appointments and do shoots and prints again in the near future. Message me for more information, or to make appointments for shoots.

Hey all you photogenic people! It's about that time of year again. Spring is rolling around, and Springtime definitely brings a lot of events to have photographed so that you can remember them the rest of your days. Not to mention the artistic element the prints will add to your wall or tabletop! I'm here for graduations, weddings, engagements, pregnancy and babies, parties, senior portraits, and much more! Want to capture some beautiful photos of a beloved pet, or have some landscape photography to decorate you house during spring cleaning and remodeling? I'm available for that, as well! I also do family portraits that are fun and creative, rather than just your family sitting in front of a backdrop wearing the same fake smile on each of your faces. Basically, if you want pictures, I will take them for you, no matter the subject! I will spend some quality time with you, just getting to know who you are and what you want before we even begin shooting. Budget will be factored into your wants and needs, and no matter your cost limit, we will create a package together that will work for you! I am excited to get to know you all and work with you to create some beautiful reminders of a beautiful day!

You may reach me by phone at (573)220-2631, through email at [email protected], or even through a message to me here on the page. Let's do a little work, and have a lot of fun!

Don't forget to check out the blog for weekly updates, and to keep up with what's going on with me as I continue to get this business off the ground!

Please help me to get this business going by supporting me on facebook and in actuality by allowing me to do some photography for you! I'd be glad to take some small jobs, just to get the ball rolling and to add more and more to my portfolio and repertoire to be able to make my love of photography into what I do for my living. That's from my heart, I'm full of hope about this endeavor, and I'm taking a risk by just saying "I'm going to do this," rather than just "I want to do this," or "I wish I could do this." Help me get started, friends!
