Amy was absolutely amazing! She responded quickly to all our questions, and explained everything in as much detail as we needed. She was friendly, supportive, and understanding the...
entire time. She was very understanding and respectful of my concerns about some potential guest behavior, and while everyone behaved, I feel like she definitely would have handled it gracefully.
We had multiple visibly LGBTQ+ guests, and a variety of skin tones, and she made everyone feel loved, beautiful, and welcome- and they look that way in the pictures!
She listened to what we were looking for, and definitely captured it. If having a great photographer is a non-negotiable like it was for us, DEFINITELY reach out to Amy!
We knew from her portfolio Amy was the absolute perfect choice for our wedding photography, but actually working with her was above and beyond what we expected. From our consultati...
on all the way through receiving our photos, Amy's communication was detailed and thoughtful. She answered every question, took time to get to know us, and helped resolve any snags that came up in our process quickly. Her experience (especially with our venue) was invaluable to us on the wedding day-- she helped us make on the fly decisions and understood our vision and executed it perfectly. Many of our wedding guests have commented on how they felt Amy was always around getting photos of everyone, and her hard work showed in the beautiful gallery she delivered. We are beyond thrilled with our photos, Amy captured the vibe of the day and all our loved ones perfectly. It's also a bonus that her values shine in her work.
We love Amy! From our engagement photos to our wedding day, she was absolutely wonderful to work with. Amy is so thoughtful, creative, and very experienced. We had an amazing time ...

Amy Ann was awesome to work with! We live in VT and we planned a wedding reception in our home state of OH, she made the planning from afar feel easy/approachable. November felt li...
ke a blah time to take photos but Amy proved us wrong! She took so many beautiful photos of us & captured lots of fun moments during the dance party! She even had the idea to round everybody up & take a group photo of the whole reception party (which we used for our Thank You cards). Her photography business is LGBTQ+ friendly as well, which was really important to us :)
As a lesbian couple, we were nervous about feeling awkward and uncomfortable with our wedding pictures. Within minutes, Amy abolished all of our fears and we had an absolute blast....
Amy captured every moment perfectly, from the romantic to the hilarious. The pictures were beyond anything we could have hoped for and we treasure them so much.

possible. She always responded quickly when we needed to get in touch. We thought her prices were very fair, and we absolutely loved the finished product! We will treasure our photos forever. I would definitely choose to work with her again!
Amy Ann did a great job for us. Flexed with our desires (for warm photos on our unphotogenic couch) and made them colorful and reflective of the event.
The only downside is that s...
he is so busy it takes awhile to get them back! A full three months before we got our wedding album. Worth the wait for us but if you're impatient it could be a concern.
Amy did an amazing job for us at our wedding and reception. She went above and beyond to make sure we got every shot we wanted!
Amy was such a delight to have at our wedding last month! She made everyone feel comfortable taking photos. She asked in advance if any of our guests would need any accommodations ...

Amy was absolutely amazing from start to finish. When we reached out to her, we were able to get a consultation quickly. During the consult she was very reassuring and accepting of...
us and our situation. She was in contact with us every step of the way and communicated clearly and professionally. She even stepped in to help with a potential food stain emergency during the reception. She was well prepared and organized through the whole process. She was willing to travel to a hotel for getting ready photos, then to a park before going to the venue for outdoor photos, she was with us for 8 hours on our wedding day. She captured all of the important moments like getting ready, the ceremony, the cake, et cetera, as well as all of the moments in between. There were times we didn't even know she was there because she captured things organically. She also was helpful with posing for portraits when we weren't quite sure what to do. She was a delight to work with!
Having Amy as our engagement and wedding photographer was a huge joy! She is extremely talented and super easy to work with. Wedding photographers play a really instrumental role i...
n making sure the day goes smoothly, and Amy did a great job in moving us through the timeline. I really appreciated her communication in the months leading up to the wedding. She was very thorough and timely. We feel really lucky to have worked with her, and we are over the moon with the pictures she delivered. 100% recommend!
Looking for a professional who communicates well even before you meet her? Are you hoping for an inclusive, talented photographer for a reasonable price to capture the best photos ...
and the vibe of the day? Amy is your gal! She was the best choice for our wedding! 10/10 recommend!
We can’t recommend Amy enough as a wedding photographer. Even before booking her, we loved how inclusive her portfolio was and how we could see couples like us represented in her w...
ork. She was great at communicating with us through the entire process, including initial questions, payment reminders, schedule creation, travel parameters (the wedding was on a Sunday in Buffalo, NY), and day of updates. We got to meet up in person with Amy when we were in town, and she alleviated any of the stress and questions we had throughout the wedding planning process.
When our wedding day arrived, Amy demonstrated her amazing ability to navigate location changes and make the most of different indoor and outdoor spaces. Our April wedding arrived with some rain, and she helped us adapt with clear umbrellas on hand and checking in with how much outdoor time/locations we felt comfortable with. Despite our ceremony having to move inside, Amy made us feel at ease, never rushing us and still keeping us on schedule. Throughout the whole day she would keep checking in to ensure we got any additional shots we wanted, including some post dinner shots that are some of our favorites!
And last, but certainly not least, the photos themselves. The quality of the photos was amazing, and there was plenty of variety in them. We loved the photos of us, but also really enjoyed that she took pictures of all of our guests as well. If you’re looking for a talented photographer with tons of experience, and who will put you at ease during a stressful time, Amy is the one to choose. We can't wait to book her again for future life milestones!
If I could give Amy a thousand stars I would. I have been following her for years hoping she would be available when the time finally came for me to get married because her photos ...
always seem to capture so much authenticity, personality, and warmth. When my husband and I made the decision to throw a small backyard wedding just three weeks later, I figured it would be impossible that she would happen to be available, but by some miracle she was! Not only was she available, but as the first vendor we booked, she provided invaluable insight and recommendations that really helped make planning our wedding in just three weeks possible! On the actual day, she was an absolute professional, working with a tight schedule and repeatedly adapting in an unusual and small space. She collaborated so well with our other vendors. Most importantly, she was kind, thoughtful, and surrounded us with positive energy. I was in the middle of a course of chemotherapy and she really went above and beyond to ensure that she wasn't over extending me. There was one group photo that I started to talk myself out of taking and I so appreciate her encouragement for us to take it because it is by far my favorite picture of the day!! Now, our pictures: 1000 stars, they are beyond perfect. My husband and I are NOT photogenic people, but seriously we look like hollywood celebrities in these photos. I have truly never felt so beautiful in my life. I remember not understanding some of the spots she had us stop to take pictures and when you see the final product, it's because she has an artists eye for perfect lighting. In addition to the posed pictures, we have the most wonderful collection of candids of all our wedding guests. Amy authentically captured the essence of warmth and love that pervaded our day. I will treasure these pictures forever. Amy, I cannot thank you enough for everything!!!
We can't say enough good things about Amy! From the moment we met her, we knew we were in great hands. On our wedding day, she made both my wife and me feel completely comfortable,...
allowing us to truly enjoy the moment.
Amy came prepared with fantastic ideas for locations and poses, which took so much pressure off us. It was such a relief to know we could just show up and let her guide us. Her creativity and attention to detail made our photos not just beautiful, but also incredibly special.
We felt truly cherished throughout the process, and we can't wait to have her capture more of our special memories in the future. If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also makes you feel at ease, Amy is absolutely amazing!
We have had the pleasure of working with Amy twice. She captured our engagement photos just over 3 years ago and then our wedding in June, this year. All of the photos are amazing!...
Working with Amy is also a pleasure. When we were looking for a photographer, Amy responded quickly and communicated clearly. Over the past three years, she has consistently done that. Due to her vast experience, Amy had wonderful recommendations for locations to capture our first look at the Hilton Columbus Downtown and throughout the Columbus Zoo where we got married! Also, since we wanted to capture as many moments as possible during our ceremony and reception, Amy recommended adding a second photographer colleague of hers during those hours. Between them, every moment was captured. If you have any doubts, please look through the other reviews and posted photos. I personally don’t believe you could have a better experience than with Amy!
We worked with Amy for both our Indian and US weddings, and she was wonderful! She was willing to work with our very early timeline for our Indian wedding, even flexible when we n...
eeded to start an hour earlier on short notice. Amy is professional, communicates well, and made the photography process one of the least of our concerns-and if you've done even a little bit of wedding planning these are "must haves" in your vendors. We will cherish her photos for a lifetime and are forever grateful for the work she created. She even took the time to hand deliver our USB with all of our photos to us.

g day. She was constantly able to find cool spots to shoot and was so great at disarming us and getting us to photograph naturally. She also did a great job of handling some difficult family members, which is not the easiest thing to do
We love that she publicly supports same-sex weddings and it was really important to us to have her as our photographer so the same-sex couples in our families would feel welcome. Thank you, Amy Ann!
We met Amy at a wedding showcase at Franklin Park Conservatory about a year before our wedding. She was easy to talk to and we loved her work- so we knew right away she was a good ...

Amy has a knack for taking joyful pictures while capturing people candidly and authentically, which is exactly what we see when we look through our engagement and wedding pictures! We loved working with Amy and look forward to doing so in the future too!

n an incredibly emotional day, book Amy. She was kind, attentive, and creative. When we didn’t know what we wanted, she guided our way to decisions that were authentic to us. Forever grateful for her support through this process!
Amy was the best photographer I have ever worked with! We booked her for my wedding photoshoot early in advance since I immediately fell in love with her style once I saw her profi...
le. The vibrant color, the candid emotion, and effortless charm are unmatched and exactly what I am looking for. To get a sense of the experience, we also work together for our pre-wedding photos at Ohio State campus. Amy showed genuine care about our stories and needs and make my camera-shy husband very comfortable throughout the process. She knows the campus and all the good shooting spots very well so the process was very seamless. Similarly, on the wedding day, even though the timeline was very tight, we felt completely at ease knowing Amy will capture all the important moments and she definitely delivered beyond our expectations! We love the authenticity of every photo. We felt so much joy and was reminded of all the emotions on our wedding day when we look at the photos together and that is something completely priceless.
We 100% recommend working with Amy. If you want an authentic documentation of one of the most important days of your life, Amy is who you want and need!
A 5 star rating is simply not enough. After having Amy's excellent services for our engagement shoot and our wedding at Franklin Park Conservatory, we cannot imagine choosing anyon...
e else. Amy is truly a one of a kind photographer. Up front, she is kind, professional, accessible, and a calming force during the stress leading up to a big day like a wedding. On the day of the event, she remains completely invisible until it's time to do family and bridal party photos. Overall, she is an experienced photographer and a lovely, pleasant person.
For our wedding morning, she brought an equally amazing second shooter with her who covered the groom and groomsmen in their suite while she covered the bride and bridesmaids. The duo assisted with the overall event timing and coordination while capturing some incredible photos throughout process. After the reception had been running for a few hours, prior to her prearranged departure from the event, Amy came to us to shoot some special golden hour shots in the garden where we'd been married that afternoon. Those photos look like they were taken straight out of a fairy tale. We simply could not have asked for more. If you want to have your special day captured in the most incredible ways imaginable, hire Amy!
Amy was so easy to work with and I was very impressed with the photos, especially the ones of my husband and I directly following our ceremony. They were natural and intimate witho...

I also really appreciated her coverage timeline, I used that to help get all my vendors on the same page.
I highly recommend Amy, she exceeded my expectations!
Our priority was to find an inclusive wedding photographer who was LGBT friendly and who captured real emotion in candids. Amy did just that! She was communicative, professional, f...
lexible, accommodating, and proved the perfect wedding photographer for my wife and I for our big day. We couldn't recommend her more highly and will definitely be returning to her for all our future life events with photography needs
We can't say enough amazing things about working with Amy and we would highly recommend her to anyone looking to work with a photographer for any reason! We recently worked with Am...
y for our engagement and wedding photography, and from our very first interaction with her we knew we wanted to work with her for this very important part of our wedding day. In our initial meeting, Amy was friendly, professional and expressed genuine interest in getting to know us and our love story. Throughout the process of working with Amy she was dependable, organized and communicative with us. We truly cannot imagine our wedding day without Amy! Her input for the photo timeline truly made our wedding day schedule very easy to follow and even allowed time for us to enjoy the cocktail hour with our 180 guests- something that was very important to us! On top of all of this, Amy's artistry as a photographer is unmatched. We absolutely love all of the photos she captured- from the portraits to the big moments to all of the small, tiny behind-the-scenes details that we nearly would have missed if Amy had not been there to see them and capture them. We are truly so appreciative of her work and feel very thankful to have these photos to remember the best day of our lives by, forever!
I couldn't possibly say how wonderful Amy is to work with and how amazing her work is! I booked Amy for what I thought was a fall photo session that turned into a surprise proposal...
. She caught the best shots of one of the best moments of our lives. From there, we hired Amy for our engagement session, wedding, and I did a boudoir shoot with her. Amy is always fantastic to work with, assisting with any questions I had (Wedding timeline? What to wear to engagement pictures? How many family photos does one need? How do we do an album again?). Amy has captured our best moments, and we're hooked for life.
Amy has wedding photography down to a science, but she’s also an incredible artist! Her communication was always prompt, and her emails had very specific instructions that were eas...
y to follow. We used Amy for an engagement shoot in the Spring with multiple locations, and she was very accommodating to make sure we got the shots we envisioned (and MANY more based on her guidance). Amy also shot our rehearsal dinner and our wedding. She asked us questions about the types of photos we wanted, how to incorporate family and different groupings of people, and she absolutely delivered! The more “staged” photos were phenomenal, and we will cherish the candids she captured for the rest of our lives. We love that she delivers the photos digitally so that we can print, add to our digital picture frames, and share easily with family. We highly recommend Amy as a photographer for any occasion, and we are so grateful to have had her as a part of our love story!
Amy was amazing to work with! We were familiar with her work by following her website & Instagram. We knew she was inclusive & that we could feel comfortable working with her. S...
he set all expectations regarding the timeline, cost & paperwork. Her communication was timely and professional. She kept us on track & sent reminders. Once our wedding day came we reviewed the details again & she went to work capturing every special moment. She was so pleasant & easy to work with. She directed us for most of the photos, but also allowed us to suggest other ideas. Knowing she was there allowed us to focus on each other & be in the moment. The photos are beautiful & we still can't believe how good she made us look! We highly recommend her!
We had Amy Ann as our engagement and wedding photographer and I am so happy we chose to work with her! From the start, Amy was extremely organized and communicative. She was also g...
reat at making us feel very comfortable in front of the camera. For our wedding day, she did a great job of keeping things moving/on track without making us feel any pressure or stress. Definitely recommend working with Amy Ann!
Amy was the best through every part of the wedding! Communication and quality before, during, and after we’re all amazing! Hire her!
Amy is fantastic! My wife and I are both a little camera shy, so when it came to our engagement and wedding photos, we wanted to make sure we had a photographer that made us feel ...
comfortable. Amy was perfect; she is very personable and also has a great eye for making sure you always look your best in a photo. This made it so easy to relax and enjoy the experience. Also, we loved the tone of her photos (timeless, vibrant colors). We both love our engagement and wedding photos and are so thankful we chose Amy to capture our special day!
Amy is a true professional and a gifted artist. From the initial meeting to the final drop off, Amy was organized and thoughtful in the way she conducts her work.
We had an unu...
sual experience where Amy was not able to actually take our wedding photos. However, Amy had a back up plan that met our specific requirements and communicated so well there was almost no stress added to us. The way she handled the situation was extraordinary.
All of this, plus the beautiful photos, will have us using her talents in the future and recommending her to anyone who needs a photographer. Thank you, Amy!
We love Amy. We were looking for an inclusive LGBTQ+ friendly wedding photographer. Our friend told us all about Amy as she and her family did photos with her. The first time we me...
t with her, she was easy to talk to , invested in us right away and was so informative about all her different offerings. She highly recommended engagement photos as a part of our package. We went for it. As I was super shy with getting photos taken. This was a great way to ease into it. Our engagement shoot was beautiful and so fun. Amy went above and beyond taking us to all the cool spots of German Village. The pictures ended up amazing.
By the time of our wedding, Amy knew my now wife and I well. We were pros with what Amy asked of us on our wedding day and felt so comfortable. She showed us a few pictures a long the way. She literally outdid herself, pictures looked amazing not even edited yet. Amy does the little things which leads to so many big things. Amy felt apart of our friends and family on that day.
We couldn’t be more happy that we chose her to be apart of our special day. We can’t thank her enough.
Amy was absolutely amazing to work with, and we're so thrilled with all of our wedding photos! She captured nearly EVERY single detail on our special day, and we feel we look like ...
absolute superstars. Thank you, Amy!!
Amy was wonderful and so are our pictures! She really captured every special moment from start to finish. Amy was a nice calming presence for us during the lead up to the ceremony....
There are so many amazing pictures that it is hard to choose which ones to order prints of and frame! We will cherish these photos forever!
Amy is nothing short of excellent. My wife and I are so grateful to her for capturing both our engagement and our wedding PERFECTLY. We’ve decorated our home and offices with so ma...
ny of her photos— not only are we obsessed with them ourselves, but we also receive compliments constantly. People are shocked by how bright they are, as well as how beautifully she captures emotion and movement. We knew that one of our top priorities in planning our wedding was investing in an incredible photographer, and we would absolutely make the same choice if we could go back in time and do it all over again.
It was also really important to us that our photographer be explicitly inclusive. We’re a lesbian couple, and I’m non-binary, so we didn’t want to feel uncomfortable with our photographer on our wedding day and have that discomfort translate into the photos as well. Amy always made us feel respected and like she genuinely cared about us as people. Her social media demonstrates clearly that she works with a wide variety of people representing a wide variety of identities, and she is someone who will celebrate you just as you are.
Amy is also very professional, clear, and timely in her communications. Even with the unforeseen circumstance of her having a baby about a week and a half before our wedding, she always kept us in the loop and had researched backup plans A-Z to make sure that we’d be covered no matter what. We trusted her so much that we didn’t worry about it at all, which is an invaluable thing when you’re a week out from the wedding and worrying about EVERYTHING.
There is no better photographer than Amy for all your life milestones. We’ll certainly never use another!
Amy did such a fantastic job at my wedding. She captured so many moments that me and my family will cherish forever. She was open and flexible to my wants and style of pictures I p...

ake charge and lead the photos, and in a way that is gentle, patient, and kind! Her eye for knowing a special photo is truly a talent. I don’t think you can find anyone better. She was such a bright spot in our day and throughout the entire process. You will absolutely not be disappointed if you decide to choose Amy.
Words can not express our appreciation for Amy as our wedding day photographer. She was so detailed oriented and truly was one of the reasons our day ran so smoothly. Amy’s organiz...
ation and attention to detail never left us wondering if we had missed anything. If there was anything that was unclear or we had a question about her response time was speedy. Amy truly captured every special moment of our day and didn’t miss a beat. We have received so many compliments on our photos and we can’t wait to use Amy again in the future.
Amy is fantastic! She really took the time to understand me and my spouse, and how we wanted to be portrayed. As a queer couple, that was so, so important to both of us. I'm not al...
ways the most confident or photogenic person, but Amy made me feel incredibly comfortable and beautiful on the big day. And the photos themselves--wow! Luminous, joyful, and beautifully composed. She captured all the big moments, and lots magical little moments too. My spouse and I have a giant montage of wedding prints in our dining room, and it brings us joy each day. I would recommend Amy in a heartbeat to anyone.
