Born in Holland of English/Dutch descent, photographer Amanda Lane took her formal photographic training at the Royal College of Art, London. Whilst at the RCA Amanda specialized in 19th Century printing techniques and became an expert in fine printing, acting as a consultant for many photographers. Sensitized to the chemicals, Amanda was awarded a scholarship from the Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust, presented by Queen Elizabeth II in 2002 to transform all her skills to Digital. Since graduating with a Master's Degree Amanda has accepted commissions from Vogue, The Sunday Times, corporate institutions and private portraits. The commissions utilize her skills as a photographer and draw upon her printing expertise, thus making her work quite unique.

Amanda currently lives in Sebastopol with her 9 year old daughter Sophia accepting local commissions from wineries & local companies, building a body of work that supports and reflects local & sustainable food economies. She recently became a member of the cooperative Sebastopol Gallery.

In 2009 Amanda created Camera Locavora, a series of photography exhibits to support Farm to Table, bringing awareness of our local resources to a "room full of local eaters".

Exhibiting in Restaurants and Tasting Rooms, bringing Art to the Table, inspiring and transporting one into the real lives of Sonoma County.
