My clients deserve the absolute best, to feel taken care of and valued. By offering this unique service, I feel that I'm finally offering something to my clients that will truly allow me to tell their beautiful story throughout different seasons of their life.

"she is a huge reason why we feel our day went so perfectly!"
Danielle and Jimmy
If you’re looking for a fun and laid back photographer who also knows how to get it done AND keep you on schedule, Amber is your girl!! Amber photographed our elopement and now our wedding celebration and she is a huge reason why we feel our day went so perfectly! She was able to capture the usual pictures as well as some randoms we threw in along way, while still maintaining our schedule and keeping the day stress-free. She went above and beyond and even posted a handful of sneak peaks THAT SAME NIGHT. Being able to relive our day as soon as we woke up was incredible. She captured our aesthetic and the colors around us so beautifully and her style will always be the number one reason we will continue to work with Amber! We look forward to having her photograph our family as we continue to grow!
"Her work is simply unmatched and her personality is a huge bonus."
The Smith Family
We'd like to start by saying that Amber is absolutely amazing at what she does. Her work is simply unmatched and her personality is a huge bonus. Amber's ability to provide such a high level of professionalism while also making each experience so comfortable, memorable, and fun keeps us looking forward to our next session with her, each and every time. Amber has captured some of our most special moments over the years. I absolutely recommend Amber for all of your photo needs - especially your wedding day!
"She is patient, warm, thoughtful and nobody works harder than her!"
Becca and Aaron
Amber has been incredible from our first initial phone call, to our engagement shoot to our wedding day. She is patient, warm, thoughtful and nobody works harder than her! Our engagement photos are everything we wanted - and the fact she was able to get some of the shots she did with our dog is IMPRESSIVE. We were so blown away by our wedding gallery. Her attention to detail, her ability to capture emotion through the lens, the way she shot our night was everything we wanted and more. We didn't need a videographer because Amber was able to capture our day perfectly. Her talent is unmatched. We can't wait for Amber to continue capturing these huge milestones in our lives. She is truly an artist and if we could give her more than 5 stars we would!
"You’ve captured our love so beautifully & I couldn’t imagine doing this without you."
JT and Kelly
Amber, I don’t even know where to begin. JT & I cannot thank you enough for playing such an important role in our wedding. You are such an amazingly talented photographer & an even more amazing person. You’ve made this entire wedding process so easy (and that’s saying a lot from two people who HATE taking pictures)! You’ve captured our love so beautifully & I couldn’t imagine doing this without you. We are so lucky to have found & met you. We are truly grateful for you & all of your talent. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! Love, JT & Kelly Silvers.
"we know in our hearts that we could not have chosen a better photographer."
Brent and Allison
We want you to know how much we appreciate all your hard work that you put into making our wedding day the best day of our lives. All the portraits ran so smoothly and you definitely helped us stay on track with our busy day. Without you, we would not have the most amazing photographs to look back on and share with our family + friends for many many years to come. We are so impressed with your skills and we know in our hearts that we could not have chosen a better photographer. Every time we look at our gallery, it is with the biggest smiles on our face, reliving every moment you captured.
"HER PRESENCE IS THE PERFECT MIX OF PROFESSIONALISM AND WHAT FEELS LIKE HAVING A LONG TIME FRIEND"
Becca and Dakota
Amber is absolutely amazing. We had to reschedule our first session due to bad weather - she was so understanding and quickly got us back on her books. We are absolutely in love with our bridal photos and will definitely be booking her for all of our future photography needs. Her presence is the perfect mix of professionalism and what feels like having a long time friend, instantly making you feel comfortable in front of the camera. I couldn’t recommend her enough!
"SHE HAS A MAGNIFICENT ABILITY TO BRING FORTH THE PERSONALITY OF THE PHOTOGRAPHED SUBJECT"
Blayre V
Amber is simply AMAZING!!! She worked with our daughter, Blayre, to create the most stunning senior portraits. Amber has incredible energy and a fabulous eye for natural color. In addition, she has a magnificent ability to bring forth the personality of the photographed subject. One can not go wrong with choosing Amber to complete your work!
"She is a natural behind the camera and will put you at ease with her bubbly personality"
Gina and Brett
Amber is an incredibly talented photographer and on top of that, she is a complete and total sweetheart! She has photographed both our engagement session and wedding day. Our friends and family have all been raving about how amazing the images turned out! I highly, highly recommend her. She is a natural behind the camera and will put you at ease with her bubbly personality!
