We had so much fun chatting and laughing during the shoot. She is very personable and made it super fun. She was able to capture my feelings of excitement, hope and happiness in the photos she took. I look back at those photos often and I am so thankful for her amazing photography skills! I look forward to when she comes back to visit California so I can book a session with her.

Amy is our go to photographer. She did our wedding photos and then our baby girls ten years later…read more She is artistic and creative. She only added simple accessories to bring out the beauty of our twin girls. She captured the most candid moments and create portraits that we cannot do it ourselves. I highly recommend Amy as a photographer.

Amy was fantastic! If you are looking for a wedding photographer, shes as good as it gets!…read more My husband and I got married this summer and we knew that the photos were one of the key things we were going to be picky about. When we found Amy's website, we were blown away by her style and how she used a lot of color in her photos (we aren't into the "muted/dreamy" color scheme that some people use). Amy was so easy to work with and got along great with the people in the wedding. She was not pushy with her ideas, but she always had a plan, which I appreciate! We met with her at a coffee shop late last summer to come up with a plan for engagement and wedding photos. She already had ideas of where to go around the Des Moines area. We took our engagement photos in the fall with the colors changing (right during the middle of the Des Moines Marathon, which threw off our plans a little bit). We ended up taking most of the photos at Drake University, but due to her creative eye, you probably couldn't even tell! Before the wedding, we kept in contact about timelines for the wedding day. She was very helpful in helping us come up with a realistic timeframe for everything. On the wedding day, we took most of the photos before the ceremony (it was an evening ceremony) and she did a great job keeping us on track with the time. She had also taken our ideas of locations and added her own to have many unique backgrounds to our photos. All of our photos turned out great and we are happy to have them for the rest of our lives!
