"You can see the passion she has for her profession within her work, and how she treats her clients."

Amanda & josh

Amy's pictures are absolutely stunning, and she brings out the beauty in each person and thing she shoots. We are in love with our pictures, and beyond that she was able to manage our giant families and wedding parties with grace and swiftness.

JUstin & Haley Haley

"Amy was an absolute dream to work with."

My husband and I are not great in front of cameras, but Amy did a great job of making us feel comfortable and natural. We were able to have our intimate moments that felt like just him and I while still having her capture them so beautifully.

Courtney & Jack

"Working with Amy is the best decision we made."

Amy and her team were great with kids, grandparents, and adults alike. Everyone in our bridal party enjoyed working with Amy and her team—they continue to comment on how wonderful they were to this day.  Amy is an amazing photographer and A TON of fun to work with. 

"There are too many amazing things to say about Amy to fit in this tiny box. Amy is one of a kind!"

by the numbers

Do you shoot film or digital?

I photograph every situation using the medium required to achieve the best result.  I have both film and digital available.

Do you travel for weddings?

Yes!  We can discuss your specific itinerary (if you have one) or your dream location (even better!).  

Do you work with a second shooter?

Yes, at a minimum!  I believe in having a strong team to support me - it makes a huge difference in my ability to serve you!

Yes, Absolutely I shoot family photos! One of the greatest joys of my job is making connections with my clients and photographing them on their journey through marriage and life, whatever that brings. Family photos, new business headshots, fur baby announcements, however your family grows - I'm along for the ride.

Do you shoot Family Sessions?

I truly believe you are gorgeous.  Yes, YOU!  I also believe in making you feel comfortable by paying strict attention to those pesky insecurities when we are shooting and making sure to direct my posing accordingly.  That is why communication prior to your photos is important! 

will you photoshop my _____?

For portrait sessions I average 14 days.
For weddings I average 3-4 weeks.

what is your turnaround time?

can you tell me why you shoot film?

The colors are true, and the mechanics are intentional.  Both sentiments that I value as integral to art and soul.

While I don't have a list of vendors that I require you to work with, I certainly have a list of highly esteemed colleagues that I am always happy to recommend to my couples.

do you have a preferred vendor list?
