"She just brings out this joy in people and then captures it on camera"

Literally THE BEST!!! Amy completely put me at ease with her down to earth, fun-loving personality. She is one of those that actually loves what she does and cares about her clients. She has a way about her that she just brings out this joy in people and then captures it on camera. She goes above and beyond and is quite the seamstress too. If your zipper ever brakes, don’t worry – she’ll be there to save the day. I cannot recommend her enough!



About Amy

 

A dramatic rock formation rising from water is illuminated against a dark coastal backdrop.
I AM: a mom of 5, a hiker, an artist, a musician, a melancholic, an introvert, and INFP

I WANT: to hike the Pacific Crest Trail, to renovate a cabin in the North Cascades, more hours in the day

I BELIEVE: love is love, your race matters, your gender identity matters, facts matter, in science

I LIKE TO READ: autobiographies, books about psychology, historical fiction

I MISS:  when my kids were little, my grandmother's garden, life before social media

I COLLECT: Starbucks mugs from every place that I visit, snarky tee shirts

I CANNOT: turn away a stray animal, go to bed early, resist a flea market

I DON'T LIKE: temperatures above 75 degrees, MAGA, crowds, country music, close-mindedness, dating apps, flavored coffee

I LOVE: backpacking, my guitar, Seattle Kraken hockey, thunderstorms, the smell of the trail after the rain, cold-press cotton watercolor paper, chai tea, tragic movies, sad music, new paintbrushes, Doc Martens, the smell of cedar, hammock camping, banana slugs, berry picking, my dog Maverick, trout fishing, Gregory Alan Isakov, painting, wallpaper, houseplants, my 5 incredible kids (25, 23, 21, 19, and 12)

To all of you rad couples


First, I just want you to know that I'm so glad you're as cool as you are. What would the world be without go-against-the-flow types like you? (Robots. It would be full of robots!)


Second, I think you should stop reading this and click here so we can just have this conversation on a zoom call already! But since we're not on the phone yet, I want to tell you that I LOVE LOVE LOVE that you're considering eloping, because you're doing this for you.


Whatever brings you here...


whether it was a frustrating or deeply disappointing family situation...

...or maybe a decision NOT spend a gajillion dollars on a party when you could travel and adventure together...


...or maybe you're just a true romantic that wants to exchange vows with Irish castles or black sand beaches in the distance instead of a commercial wedding venue...


Whatever your reasons, I want you to know that I have MAD RESPECT that you know what you want and aren't afraid to go after it. Your love deserves this. You deserve this. And I am so stoked for you!


I CANNOT WAIT to connect with you.

"Amy felt like an extension of our family."

“Amy felt like an extension of our family. From the first zoom meeting she was so friendly and fun, as well as professional, that my wife and I felt an instant connection with her. Throughout the process she was so helpful, going above and beyond... My wife and I are both normally so awkward, but she made us both feel so comfortable in front of the camera and captured the most beautiful and amazing photos! Watching her work, and be inspired, made us both excited and helped us enjoy the process even more. I look through our album almost weekly. The emotions she captured take me right back to our special day. I can't gush about her enough. Love you Amy!"
