I am so excited to introduce AW Photography to the public and fellow Yelp elite family and friends…read more Now they are not a new business they've been around for a minute and when you first meet them they have got to be the cutest couple in the world. Alex and Wendy have got two completely different personalities she is from England so it is just hilarious to interact with her because of the different cultures. They know how to bounce ideas off of each other to make the pictures perfect. When I got my photography session I was so very nervous but they have a way of just putting you at ease that within a few minutes you are just having a ball! They do not force you into poses that are not natural which is a huge bonus in my opinion and they learn how to get the best end results even if it's kind of unconventional. For example me I apparently would do a little duck face not realizing it and then I would giggle or I would smile that is the picture that Alex wanted to capture and I had no clue until I saw the pictures in the end and was just amazed. I would highly highly recommend them for any type of event, Christmas cards, whatever you are looking for at least go meet them and I do know that there is one negative review on here but take my word for it say they are a five star company.

We have now used AW Photography for multiple sessions and each time- it's met with patience, enough shots of the family to get good ones and just overall a great experience. We are a family of 5 with 3 littles. They are so gentle through the process and we are grateful for them. They truly do help us create the best memories to keep. Thank you guys so much! We appreciate you!!

We definitely plan to work with him again in the future!

Booking and payment were super easy online, and communication was excellent the whole way through. We told him we got married 25 years ago on a beach somewhere on the Nevada side of South Lake Tahoe (the exact spot is still a mystery!), and when he suggested Zephyr Cove Resort Beach, we knew he was our guy. I'll admit I was more nervous than my husband, but Daniel immediately made us feel comfortable. He's easy to talk to, fun, and knows exactly how to guide you through natural poses without anything feeling fake. We were laughing (actual laughing tears!) the entire time. We had the best time. We just got our proofs back, and I am beyond thrilled. His work is beautiful!! We started at 5pm and he got all the best of the area! Unreal!! You 'd never even know it was one of the windiest days ever! I can't wait to see the full gallery. If you're in the South Lake Tahoe area and need a photographer who's talented, personable, and genuinely cares about your experience, Daniel is the one.

Your business will benefit forever from their services and you'll never be disappointed. I could rant and rave forever about these guys. We've used them for over a year now, and before that at another company for years prior. 5 stars, absolutely recommend.

We originally wanted to have our pictures taken at Lake Tahoe, but weather didn't permit so we got creative and took pictures in her studio. It was quite fun taking so many pictures under her guidance. The studio is cozy and welcoming. She also has a good number of beautiful props and many dresses to choose from. I borrowed 3 of her dresses and also used one of my own. She has quite a collection! They are not your typical flashy maternity gowns but very classy and very much timeless. Definitely consider Christie if you're thinking about maternity photoshoot!

So we hired them as videographers for our own wedding and couldn't have been more pleased! Kris and Ruta were super responsive and easy to work with in the planning phase, which we learned is super important for wedding planning. On the day of, their warm and genuine personalities were such a pleasure to be around, and they worked super well with our photographer. We are so happy with the results- they do an amazing job of creating wedding videos that don't feel stiff and lacking in personality, they instead capture the essence of the day with video clips, audio from speeches, and awesome drone shots. Cannot recommend them more, thank you!

I had originally hired Ruta and Kris for my wedding in 2020 and it was cancelled due to Covid. I rescheduled for 2021, and my wedding was cancelled due to the Caldor Fire. We took the chance to reschedule for 2023, and it was a hit! Bonus - we had Ruta for our photographer and Kris for our videographer. Ruta and Kris were very understanding and worked with us having to reschedule our wedding twice. Ruta was so great with communicating, and they really wanted to get to know my husband and I so that they can capture the moments that were most important to us. I highly recommend Amber Shores for your next event or photoshoot. They are top notch, professional, and an amazing couple.

They are amazing. But what I really love about them isn't their photography... it is their heart and community.

Is book them for their photography but friend them for their personalities.

We loved the flat rate fee and that we had a photographer with us all day. We ended up with about…read more3-4,000 pictures, which was nice (many were duplicates from a slightly different angle, which made it a little difficult to go through, but allowed us to choose what we liked best). Everything was hassle-free like Shan T. said. Brooke is very pleasant and easy to work with and has a wonderful personality. We were ready to go in advance and met with her on two occasions to explain what we were looking for, as well as emailed examples of the styles we liked. However, we felt that we received photos that were completely opposite of what we requested. We all talked about doing fun, outside of the box photos, which she said she could and would do. We feel that our photos were boring and regular and did not fit our personalities or what we talked about at all. She missed key moments (like my dad pulling back my veil when giving me away and/or kissing my cheek). Out of the 4,000 photos, we really liked about 20 (many were of inanimate objects). Some of our guests took better pictures that we actually have hanging up in our home. If we were able to do it all over again, we would go with a different photographer, even if it meant we didn't get them as long.

I met with her months before the wedding, booked the date, and it was hassle-free from start to finish! What we loved the most is that you can pay one flat rate for the entire day - getting ready, ceremony, and reception - and then you get all the work on CDs or a flashdrive. We got CDs of all the photos plus duplicate CDs with the same photos in black & white and an additional CD of artistic photos (black & white with the flowers in red, for example). With this option, we own all the photos and can do what we want. We can post them on Facebook, print them at Wal-Mart, email them to our family, etc. You don't have to pay for a photographer, wait 2 months, then pick the photos you want developed, then have to wait for them to only develop those photos - and then you only have a handful of them. This way, you get everything and it is fun and easy! Brooke is great, I cannot say it enough!! A+
