Why Gossamer Studios?

Photography with a Storyteller's heart

About Your Photographer


Hello! I'm Amanda (she/they), the photographer behind Gossamer Studios. I am passionate about photography as a means to a specific end: to give a voice to each of my clients and allow them to tell their story. Whether you want to memorialize a special event like an engagement or graduation, or live out a personal fairytale, I want to help.


Additionally, I believe in body-empowerment and the idea that all bodies are good bodies. Too often, photography and media in general focuses on a very narrow spectrum of beauty, but bodies come in all shapes, sizes, colors, ages, genders, and abilities. My mission is to turn the spotlight onto the under-represented. I want each client to leave their session feeling confident, happy, and empowered.


Located in San Antonio, TX.
