Working with Amy Millard of Millard Creative Studio was an absolute dream. I needed brand photography for the launch of my new business, and I am so glad I went with Amy! She captured the dark, moody, atmospheric essence of Arcana District with such precision and artistry that it honestly felt like she stepped directly into my vision and brought it to life. Amy has an incredible eye for detail and knows exactly how to create images that feel like a brand, not just represent one. Every shot was intentional, cinematic, and dripping with the exact mystical tone I wanted. She made the entire process effortless, from directing poses to finding perfect lighting to creating a comfortable, collaborative environment. These photos elevated my brand in ways I can't even put into words. If you're looking for a photographer who can tap into your aesthetic, amplify your voice, and deliver imagery that stops people mid-scroll... Amy is the one. I can't recommend her enough. read more

I'm such a fan of Amy's work! I have hired her to do three photo shoots for our business. She's helped us to solidify our brand as well as produce outstanding photos of our team. She made even the most shy person feel comfortable and found a way help them express what's special about them in their photos. There's no higher recommendation that I can give. read more

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Amy! She is extremely talented, kind, great with kids and always gets the shots! Amy has been shooting my Real Estate clients twice a year for many years now, so this review is long overdue. Her pricing is very reasonable (my cost) and my clients love their photographs! Amy has 2 kiddos too, so she's GREAT with littles and that can be challenging. Here are some of our own family's shots from our recent Client Event. 12/10 for Amy! read more

I had such a great experience doing family/maternity photos with Amy! She sent helpful guidelines on what to expect and ideas on what to wear ahead of the photo shoot. She was able to get stunning, versatile spots. She helped my toddler feel comfortable and found creative ways to make her smile throughout the experience. I will definitely use her services again and recommend Amy for anyone looking for photos to capture important events (including family, maternity, brand, engagement and more). read more

Amy has been doing my headshots for years and she is simply the best. I'm someone who doesn't feel super photogenic but she is able to get great photos that feel like me. She is great at helping you feel comfortable. read more

Three years later, we've added another kiddo to our family and Amy continues to make us look good every year for our family portraits! She is so nice, professional, she's amazing with kids, and such a talented photographer. We do a mini session for the holidays every year and it's such a great deal! read more

Amy came to the rescue for us at the last minute and produced outstanding photos of our special event, the LUNG FORCE Walk! Thank you, Amy!

I have worked with Amy for over a decade. She is one of the best in the business. So much so that I hired her to shoot my own wedding back in 2016. She produces quality work time after time. SAN DIEGO EVENTS COMPANY APPROVED! read more

I asked Amy to photograph a private party for my family. My family event consisted of close cousins, local parents, plus out of town parents. I suggested to the family that we use this holiday party as an opportunity for each "mini family" to pitch in $$ for a "mini-session." This made it possible for Amy to take individual family photos at a single location while still capturing unique moments among close family and friends. To me, this seemed like a win-win and I was so happy that Amy obliged to come out on a major Holiday! Aside from being incredibly talented, accommodating, and professional... Amy is incredibly kind. I was tested with my new 6-month-old baby and Amy showed me incredible grace, patience, and concern towards my stress of being momma bird at that very moment. I give Amy Millard my highest recommendation. read more

Love Amy's professionalism and dedication to honest photography. She is skilled at capturing the moment, look, or feel and delivers quality images that are true to our family. I have used Amy as our photographer for years and trust her implicitly. She has climbed hills (literally), waded around streams, patiently waited through outfit changes and toddler "fits" and continues the session without issue or complaint. I highly recommend her services for sessions short or long! read more

Amy Millard Creative Studio - My Day Spa - Session Photography Near Me

We first met Amy through The Front Porch Project and loved working with her from the get go. She is extremely down to earth, is great with kids (and cranky husbands like myself) and captures amazing shots. We were so grateful for the initial photos and impressed with Amy's work and her ability to make the shoot feel less like a shoot, we ended up booking 2 additional family shoots this the year. We can't recommend Amy enough- she's amazing! read more

I can't do justice to mention how amazing Amy Millard's work is. Amy was our wedding photographer and we are so happy with how everything turned out. Communication was always great. Amy was able to meet with me before and had worked our venue before so she knew all the good shots and also took what I wanted and made something beautiful. Amy beautifully captured every moment. She was wonderful to work with. Both my now husband and I are camera shy and Amy helped us feel at ease. Word of advice for anyone who hires Amy, BUY THE ALBUM! They are worth it!! I'm so thankful that we had the opportunity to work with her and can't wait to be able to again. read more

Amy was wonderful to work with on a tight timeline and quick turnaround including some selects day of. She even kindly offered to film a bit of b-roll at the event purely because she saw the need and potential use of such photography in our industry. Couldn't be happier with the results! read more

Amy is great! She is friendly, approachable. Amy has you in your natural element without giving lots of directives. The quality of her work is excellent. Amy has done 2 sessions with me now and I can't wait for her to do my wedding! The photos we have so far are beautiful. The turnaround time was about a week for us to see our photos and boy are we impressed. Lots of amazing photos to choose and we loved working with Amy. Her prices are also very reasonable. I would definitely suggest her! read more

I absolutely loved working with Amy! She made the whole process go so smoothly. She helped make sure we were comfortable in front of the camera, and really took the time to capture my husband and my style, and important elements of our big day. She was so easy to work with during all stages! My family raved about how she was professional, friendly, and got great shots-all while not blocking anyone during any of the big moments! The quality of the photos are tremendous! My husband and I love every single shot, and the way Amy captured us and our venue. I would use Any again in a heartbeat! I highly recommend her! read more

One of the best experiences of my life captured forever in still mode. We may not have had our photo's taken on our actual wedding day but Amy sure did make it feel as such. One of the most wonderful things about being married is creating memories and she nailed it! Seeing our photo's brought tears to my eyes. Thank you Amy! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Your truly talented!! Marcus & Matteo read more

I'm a wedding vendor with 5+ years experience working with dozens of vendors. Amy is easy to work with, timely, creative and all around awesome! A vendor review comes with lots of experience (good & bad) so a great review should be taken seriously! Her work has gotten us featured on several popular blogs (which is the gold currency of the wedding world!) That means her photos are amazing! Her turnaround time is fast and she makes it easy to see the galleries and get the photos. That is invaluable! We love working with her and would highly recommend her services!! read more

My wife and small children and I have used Amy for family photos over the last 7 years. Amy does an amazing job! She is fast but you would not know it from the quality of the product. read more

She has a great eye to capture once in a lifetime moments and an awesome attitude that puts everyone being photographed at ease! We absolutely loved working with Amy and would definitely reach out to her again with any other events! Highly recommended!!! read more

What a great experience!!! Amy met with us at our venue before the wedding and we were very delighted that she was so sweet and prepared. We went over a lot of the work she had done before and had some samples of things we liked and wanted to try and replicate. Not only did she nail the looks we wanted, she worked with the venues scenery and came up with some great photos that really captured our beautiful day and night. Amy kept things very light and was very patient with us and all the family photos...which we know can get pretty hectic. It honestly felt like we hired a friend to take some shots of our wedding. The photos came out beautiful. I love how she made them available to view online while she edited the finals because we were very anxious to see them. Once she was able to edited the photos we received a cute little package with a USB drive with all the photos. I couldn't recommend Amy more, she was the cherry on top of our amazing day. Thank you Amy!!! P.S. my brother just got engaged so expect a phone call lol :) read more

Amy came recommended from one of our good friends. We met with Amy and knew right away it was going to be a good match for us. Her approach is very relaxed, chill and flexible, which is exactly what we wanted. We hired Amy to do both our engagement photos as well as our wedding photos. Her pricing is fair and her offering is vast. She really does a great job of catering to your exact needs. Scheduling was easy and flexible. The shoots were nothing short of amazing. Amy did a great job of suggesting locations, positions and poses that would capture unique moments without being too bossy or ridged. The end result was priceless. We had so many amazing shots from our shoots that it was really hard to pick our favorite. We also were honored to be Amy's first gay wedding. Amy worked the crowd with ease and without being too disruptive to the day. She would disappear and then reappear, but seemed to always capture a magical moment. With all that said, I highly recommend Amy for your next major event or engagement. She has an eye for that best shot. The Koys! read more

Amy was highly recommended by one of our closest friends and I can say without a doubt that she was the perfect fit for our wedding. Extremely accommodating, approachable, adaptable, and easy to work with. With planning the wedding and the photos planning in particular, Amy was accessible, easy to communicate with and creative with her shots. I would highly recommend her for those looking for a photographer! read more

We recently had a birthday party for our 100-year-old dad/grandpa/great-grandpa. Amy did a GREAT capturing not only the group shots everyone wanted, but also so many wonderful unexpected cameos--priceless! She was very unobtrusive during the event, so we didn't feel as though we were being posed or on-camera the whole time. Amazing that she got so many great shots without our even noticing! We would happily recommend Amy! read more

Amy is an amazing photographer. She photographed our family twice this year and I couldn't be happier with the photos. Highly recommend!

We recently had family photos taken by Amy during the holiday season. It was such a bustling time but she managed to squeeze us in her schedule! We have one in college, 4 other young ones and so getting us all together can be challenging! Not only did Amy's pictures come out fabulous she gave us a fun memory with the family;) We shot in Little Italy for a more urban look. We LOVE our pics.. They are fun and colorful!!- just like our bunch;)) Thank you Amy Millard! read more

Amy Millard Creative Studio - Session Photography Near Me

It's been twice now we have worked with photographer Amy Millard: once for a profile shoot for a major magazine publication, and another time for a recent special winery trip to Temecula. This gal really knows her stuff, and I was so impressed with her process. Having worked with other photographers in the past, I was pleasantly surprised at being contacted by Amy prior to the shoot with questions, as no other photographer had done that before, at least not the way she does it. She asked us specific questions to nail down the feel/ambiance we were looking for, our goals as to how we wanted to use the photos, and even discussed attire with us, and what would photograph well. So impressed with this girl and her professionalism! That being said, she's got the kind of personality that makes you forget she's taking pics of you, it's almost just like hanging out it's so natural. That's a gift for sure with photographers. And our pics turned out amazing!! Her photos of me and my husband for the above mentioned magazine thing ended up being some of my favorite pictures I have of us, period. I wish I had known about her for our wedding 13 years ago *sigh* we used another photographer for those, and sadly, his work didn't come close to the quality of hers. So give Amy a ring if you're looking for a great photographer, you'll be glad you did! read more

I used Amy's services for the second time in a row- on a much larger scale and I couldn't have asked for more. Amy is out on maternity leave, but I text hear and within 24 hours she got our 3 day event covered with one of her assistants. He did an amazing job and captured exactly what we wanted. The pictures are the highest quality and Amy and her staff are incredibly knowledgeable and know what they are doing. Cannot get better! read more

Amy is absolutely amazing! She did our engagement and wedding photos. She had everything we were looking for: absolutely stunning pictures with vibrant colors, professionalism and responsiveness, affordable pricing, and most of all very personable and caring. I did not have a wedding planner so Amy really helped me out. She is a wealth of knowledge! I have received so many compliments on our photos...she captured the most beautiful moments with ease and professionalism. She was so easy to work with, unimposing, and so so talented. We now consider Amy a friend! We love every single picture and are so grateful to Amy for their incredible work and dedication....Thank you Amy! read more

My fiancé and I hired Amy for a mini photo session last year. Being newly engaged we wanted engagement photos. We were both a little nervous about having our photos taken on the public beach. Amy worked with us and we quickly forgot there was anyone else in the beach. We had such a great time and our pictures turned out great and we will cherish them for life. read more

I have to say I am so fond of Amy. As a wedding planner, it's important to have great go to vendors on your list and Amy is top notch. Not only has she photographed me and done some design work, but she has given my clients great care too. Having a background and degree in photography, she really knows her stuff. Personally, I don't even think you need to read this as her work speaks for itself. She captures the beauty of a wedding with a creative and artistic style that the images become absolute show stoppers. You can feel the emotion and sweet moments coming through the image and really makes you comfortable when photographing. Being in front of the camera can feel awkward but her sweet and relatable temperament put you at ease and allow for your candid nature to make magic happen! Book her and you won't be disappointed!!!! read more

I worked with Amy on a Coronado wedding recently. Amy has a great schedule created beforehand which was great on the wedding day. Everything flowed perfectly for photos. Amy was also easy to reach when I had a question. I sent a text and would get a quick response. We all worked as a team on the wedding day and the wedding was spectacular! read more

Amy is excellent to work with! We asked Amy to coordinate and execute our corporate head-shot and collateral/environmental photo shoot and couldn't have been happier with the results. She is very responsive, reasonably priced, talented, patient, cooperative, creative, her production turn around is quick and she accommodates our needs. She is now our official corporate photographer and comes back once a quarter to photograph our new team members and update those in need of updating. I highly recommend Amy for your photographer needs. read more

Amy is amazing at what she does! She is organized, caring, genuine, and creative. She photographed our wedding at Loew's Coronado Bay in June, and the photos are timeless. She is always on time, and very professional. We had a destination wedding, so planning was from far away. Amy was easy to reach over the phone, and we easily coordinated everything together. The day of the wedding, she came in and took pictures of us getting ready, and she really put us at ease before our big day. If you are looking for a great photographer who takes care of you, Amy does just that! Our day was captured so special thanks to her and our other vendors. read more
