We had such a fantastic experience working with Amaris! She captured beautiful photos of me and my fiancé that we’ll treasure forever. What really stood out was how kind and patient she was especially since we’re usually super awkward in front of a camera. Somehow, she made us feel totally at ease, and it shows in every shot. Her energy was calm, encouraging, and professional, and the results were absolutely stunning. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a photographer who brings out the best in you!

Amaris did our engagement and wedding photography and we are so thrilled to have found her on this website . She was very communicative, helpful, kind and professional throughout the entire experience. She made us feel comfortable and confident in our photos , had great ideas for shots and captured so many amazing moments we wouldn’t have even thought to ask for. I highly recommend her for any photography needs.

Amaris was wonderful to work with and I would highly recommend using her for any of your photography needs. During our session we had both family photos and headshots done and both turned out better than we could have hoped for! Amaris is professional, extra patient and very talented. Thank you, Amaris for delivering photos of our family that we will cherish for a lifetime. ❤️

We enjoyed our time with Amaris. She has an eye for what makes beautiful pictures and she is comfortable working with wild little boys.

FAQs
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I traveled around the world for 11 months and fell in love with photography! Capturing the beauty of nature as well as the diversity of people always takes my breath away. Some of my favorite memories I was able to capture through photography and I will cherish those pictures for a lifetime!
Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?
I recently shot a good friend’s wedding and it was a blast! Really knowing the couple and their love story makes the whole day so amazing to capture. I loved getting everything from the small details to the first kiss as husband and wife!!!! The wedding + reception ran for 8 hours, and my editing process took about a month.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Look for a photographer who has a style that you love! Someone who takes a personal interest in you (portraits) or you and your significant other (engagement, couple, and wedding) will be a plus, and add the bonus of such a fun shoot!
