Where do I even begin with Amber... I have personally known her since I moved to NC 10+ years ago at the early seasons of her photography business. As a person, she is remarkable and kind hearted to everyone she comes in contact with, which rea...lly helps gets the butterflies away when you are in front of a camera :) I have since hired her for my senior portraits our engagement photoshoot, our wedding, our baby announcement, my bridal portraits, and recently our family photos. I absolutely love her style of photography and I really never want to hire anyone else for anything. The only reason I would hire someone else is if Amber was not able to HAHA. She is very honest and upfront about any questions you may have. She is VERY easy to talk to and has a sweetness about her spirit. I personally, and my husband, wanted vendors in our wedding that we didn't just 'hire', we wanted them to be more than a vendor, because they are apart of the biggest day of our lives, and Amber was that for us.
With our Wedding, we originally were scheduled for Nov of 2020 but then.. COVID. So.. we got our closest loved ones together and had a very small intimate wedding VERY short notice. She was able.. THANK GOD.. to still be our photographer on such short notice.
I will say.. The one vendor that was unable to be at our wedding we originally booked was our day of coordinator and that put us so behind for the timeline of the wedding / pictures :( so if you are reading this GET A DAY OF COORDINATOR !!!! Your photographer will THANK YOU!!! I hate we didn't have that to help our photographer. But, if Amber was stressed.. I wouldn't have been able to tell. She was as calm and cool as a cucumber and just went with the flow of the day.
Every photo has brought back an emotion to that day. She has done a phenomenal job at capturing the moment. It is so cliché' to say but it is true, she captures every moment. The wedding ay goes by SO incredibly fast you barely remember to eat. (well.. maybe that was just me LOL), but getting that gallery and looking back on the moments that I couldn't capture from memory, really solidified why getting a professional photographer is so important. Not just a professional, but a photographer that is passionate about her work and will exhaust every effort to ensure you love the pictures she captures on your day.
Amber is everything and MORE you need on your day and we love having her apart of all of our special moments in our lives, it means more than just a vendor.
