Time flies. We’re busy. The two biggest regrets I hear from my clients are not investing in professional portraits and not printing them.

I can help ensure your portraits don’t stay digital, but are enjoyed every day in your home as TANGIBLE artwork.

Let’s make your dreams a reality.

  • Shelby & Jay

    “What sets Amy apart is not only her talent but also her dedication to her craft. Her attention to detail and passion for photography shine through in every image. As a friend, I always want to support those closest to me, but choosing Amy for our professional photos was a no-brainer. Her work speaks for itself, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Thank you, Amy, for capturing this special moment in our lives so beautifully!”

  • The Helton Family

    I was worried we wouldn’t get any good family pictures together. Do you have a two-year-old who listens? I was so surprised by how relaxed and comfortable our session was. Amy took the pressure off of us and let the kids just be kids. We loved how Amy prepared us with what to expect and set the intention beforehand of creating a book from all the images. My family LOVES reliving our fun adventures together whenever we look through our book.

    “Working with Amy was a dream. It was fun getting to explore hidden gems in our town for unique settings. The lighting and tonal quality of the portraits was amazing! Our daughter was very comfortable during the photo session. Our session was perfect, thank you, Amy!”

    “Having the open line of communication about sentimental places that we wanted included during the session was helpful to mentally figure out what we would be getting into - giving us more comfort prior to the session.”

Our Game Plan

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to celebrate an important milestone for your family. Maybe the extended family is all in town for only a short while.

  • The best way to begin is to chat on the phone. I’d love to get to know you better and help answer any questions you might have. We’ll start mapping out your intentions for your photography experience.

  • We'll go on an adventure somewhere outdoors for your session, explore and have fun! You can expect lots of laughs, snuggles, play, and being comfortable in front of the camera. I guide you and your family the whole way through and make sure everyone looks and feels their best.

  • The best part of the whole experience! After your session, we'll get together again to relax and choose your favorite images. I'll help you select your final display options to best fit your home.
