Me, in RAW

Amanda Westrich

Born and raised in Southern California and now based in Central California, I bring nearly 20 years of experience and a deep love of light, place, and storytelling to my photography. From sweeping landscapes to personal portrait experiences, I am drawn to the beauty, atmosphere, and emotion that make an image unforgettable. My work is about more than documenting what is in front of me. It is about creating photographs that feel intentional, genuine, and lasting.

The Road Not Taken


Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel both

And be one traveler, long I stood

And looked down one as far as I could

To where it bent in the undergrowth;


Then took the other, as just as fair,

And having perhaps the better claim,

Because it was grassy and wanted wear;

Though as for that the passing there

Had worn them really about the same,


And both that morning equally lay

In leaves no step had trodden black.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

I doubted if I should ever come back.


I shall be telling this with a sigh

Somewhere ages and ages hence:

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.
