I’m an artist, a writer and a researcher. My passions are grounded in the science of functional nutrition, a deep connection to the energy that connects us and the desire to be a healing part of your journey whatever form that takes.
(I’m also a camera geek, I use both sides of my brain so don’t be surprised if I short circuit once in a while!)
Amanda Richardson, BCDFN, CFNC
Doctor of Functional Nutrition & Editorial Food Photographer.
Understanding the beauty of food from every angle.
The Studio
Based in Charlotte, NC, serving clients nationwide.
Food and cookbook photography for chefs, authors and publishers.
I started as a chef. I quickly learned I was more passionate about the art of plating the food than the stress of cooking, so I grew into a food stylist and photographer at the same time. Food is a huge part of my life, so I went on to understand it from the inside too. My work is editorial, artistic and shaped by that same curiosity about what food actually does in the body.

Migraine Unread
Deeper than a diagnosis.
I’m a doctor of functional nutrition living with hemiplegic migraine, and I’ve learned how to heal, not to cure. I share my journey and the daily reality of what life actually feels like inside a body that rarely cooperates with “normal life.”
Deeply researched, deeply personal writing on the signals nobody taught us to read. Home of my book in progress, Sick of Being Sick.
