About Me
The best images come from feeling safe to be yourself. I build that safety with preparation, thoughtful timelines, and lighthearted direction. I am equal parts planner and cheerleader so you can relax and be present.
Why I do this
Oh hey, Amy here!
Just your local extroverted introvert with a baking obsession…
You’ll often find me with homemade
pizza in the oven + a book in my hands
I’m an eternal optimist, searching for the silver lining at every curve in the road. I’m devoted to discovering the best chai latte out there and will always have sunscreen when you need it. (The word “tan” isn’t in my vocabulary. Mostly because my skin just straight up doesn’t know how to do that.)
My vacations are typically planned around mountains, lakes, and small towns, especially if there are a few hiking trails and a cute ice cream shop nearby.
In classic Minnesotan style, I married into a VERY Scandinavian family. Like, the “my mother-in-law was born in Norway” level of Scandinavian…and it’s the BEST. My husband Kevin is the zen to my excitement, the charm to my quirk, and is quite possibly the most supportive human ever - both in life and this biz of mine here.
If you also enjoy things like: lighting fall-scented candles, daydreaming about future travels, wine tasting, sharing stories around a campfire, and watching Top Gun: Maverick or Pride and Prejudice…well, we are absolutely going to be friends.
- I communicate clearly and early so there are no last-minute surprises
- I collaborate with your vendor team to keep the day smooth
- I keep family photos fast and organized
- I give you space for the quiet moments you’ll remember most
What it is like to work with me
Where I work
I’m based in Minneapolis with a second home base in Door County.
I travel for the stories that matter to you.
“Amy took photos of our Door County elopement, and I am so glad we had her by our side. She was able to capture the happiness of the day, while including Door County landscapes the entire time. My husband and I have never been more comfortable in front of a camera, Amy kept it light and fun. Not only was she great to be with, the photos turned out AMAZING! The photos are crystal clear and vibrant, while capturing our true personalities. We cannot wait to hang up the photos in our new home!”
