5 Star Review from Natalie & Kyle

“Amazing is definitely named correctly! She truly is amazing in all aspects of photography. When we did our engagement photos with her, she was all for the bumpy ride up a snowy mountain (and even was still willing when we had our grandpa pull us out)When it came to the wedding day, she made sure we got every picture we wanted. She captured the wedding beautifully! She was easy to work with and maintained great communication. She worked well with all the other vendors and made sure to give credit where it was due.We got our sneak peeks on time and cannot wait to get our whole album!! Will always recommend Amazing when people ask for help finding a photographer! She is a great photographer!”

5 Star Review from Micheala & Grant

“My husband and I had the pleasure of modeling for Amazing. Our wedding photos 8 years prior had been a disaster. Amazing made it feel like our wedding day all over again. We had unforgettable moments together and will cherish these photos the rest of our lives. Thank you Amazing!”

-Micheala

I'm Amazing!

I have always loved love - I’m a hopeless romantic and guaranteed to cry at least once at every wedding. Getting to watch people find their soulmate brings me the most joy and is hands down the best part of my job. My goal for every session is to create a fun atmosphere with a romantic, creative, and authentic vibe not only for your photos, but for the experience itself.

I live for the emotional, candid moments – the closeness of a first dance, a couple tearing up during their vows by an alpine lake, the first time you see your person walking down the aisle, the intimacy of being with your partner surrounded by only the sound of nature, all of it! I understand how important this day is and the immense trust you place in your photographer which is why I am dedicated to not only capturing every magical moment, but ensuring that your wedding or elopement day is as beautiful, stress-free, and joy-filled as possible.

Your day isn’t just about saying “I do.” It’s about choosing a day that’s as breathtaking as your love story.
It means trading the ordinary for the extraordinary, the scripted for the spontaneous, and the expected for the unforgettable.

It’s about feeling the wind in your hair, standing on the edge of a mountain, wrapped in golden light, and knowing this moment is yours.
It’s about love without limits, adventure without compromise, and memories that will never fade.

Because your wedding/elopement day shouldn’t feel like just another day.
It should feel like the best day of your life.

And I'm here to capture every moment of it.

Testimonials

"Amazing is just that, amazing! It was overwhelming to find the right photographer for our engagement session and wedding, but I’m so glad we found her! At the time, my husband and I were living overseas but Amazing kept constant communication with us even with the 8 hour time difference. When we finally got to meet her in person she was so sweet and made both us feel comfortable right away. When we got back our photos from the engagement session, we knew we made the right choice! On the day of the wedding, Amazing and her team were on time, professional, and we’re able to get the shots they needed even with our large bridal party. Our photos are absolutely perfect and we couldn’t be happier. I will always recommend her to anyone who’s looking for a photographer and I hope we can use her again for more photos in the future! Thank you Amazing."

"Amazing took our engagement photos and then our wedding photos about a year later. We couldn't be more thrilled with the results! Her work is truly an art form and it's so clear to see how much she loves her career. I chose Amazing over other photographers based on her vibes alone! Her personality is everything you could want in a wedding photographer. She's professional, but without being stuffy. She knows how to have fun, she's friendly, and easy to socialize with. She's trustworthy and reliable as she was always on time. She captured all the joy and beauty of our wedding day and we will cherish our pictures forever!"

Testimonials

"There are not enough stars I could give, or positive words I could say. Amazing was an exceptional photographer for our wedding. She helped make the day as stress free as possible. She worked seamlessly with our coordinator to capture all the best moments. The weather was uncooperative for the entire day, but that didn’t slow her down, she rolled with it. She was out in the rain with my husband and I doing our first look, and then capturing some of the most beautiful before pics. She somehow managed to be both easy going and direct. She had great communication leading up to and during the wedding day. Honestly, if she lived near me I would have Amazing take all of my professional photos! Thank you for helping to make our day absolutely perfect!"

-Samantha

From our engagement pictures to our wedding pictures; all of it was stunning. I wish she lived closer so she could be our photographer for all life’s precious moments. She went above and beyond and delivered more pictures than ever expected. I would recommend her to anyone that ever needs a photographer. Thanks again Amazing, your name says it all :)"
