Amy Little Photography

e talent for capturing the sweet moments that make a wedding special. Then I talked to her, and we instantly vibed. She even made my fiance lighten up and feel comfortable -- a herculean task! On top of that, she made us look and feel stunning. She taught us two awkward penguins how to model and let our true selves show on film. I still don't know how she did it! And on the day of, she not only was solving problems like a boss, she turned her creative eye into some jawdroppingly beautiful creative pictures in the rain. She's a genius, and I couldn't be happier with how the photos turned out.

d she gave us a lot of guidance. We highly recommend Amy!

happier with the way our photographs came out. She made us feel so comfortable the entire time. Thank you a million times!

ad quite the vision for telling our story. I would highly recommend Amy to all future couples! Cheers.

husband and I are awkward at taking photos, but Amy was able to capture so many new expressions I have never seen of us in photos. I will cherish our wedding photos for years to come.

feel so confident throughout the process. THEN comes the photos which were magnificent and looked so damn perfect. Amy is truly a professional and is extremely talented. I highly recommend her!

to then capture it for all time. She's truly amazing and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to capture their special day.

the whole process and even helped out in coordinating with our venue. The photos came out absolutely stunning too! Much better than anything we could have hoped for. From Amy's help, ideas, coordination, timing, pictures, and just the entire process, Amy was the best choice we could have made. She was very sweet and great to work with the entire time we took photos all around the vineyard for our proposal. Highly recommend!

wind and fog to produce the most stunning photos. She hopped on calls with us to go over details and timelines before the wedding and gave us tips to make everything run smoothly. When my dress zipper busted, Amy spent more than two hours calling her mom (a former seamstress) and helping my husband and mom sew me into my dress so I could attend the reception. Since we lost out on valuable photo time, she stayed much longer than her contracted time to get us as many photos as possible. Her presence was seamless - she meshed with the party so well, and took photos like there were three of her. Everyone in the room was her best friend by the end of the night because of her ability to make everyone so comfortable and have a great time. We were blown away by her talent and her ability to direct us to make us look more natural (a difficult task). She sent us a sneak peak less than two days after the wedding that included hundreds of photos, which was an amazing addition to our minimoon. Amy, you made our wedding such a success, and we're so glad we found you!!!

hotos that we will cherish forever. We are totally not photo people, but during our entire session she was so encouraging and made us feel so comfortable. We walked outta there feeling like a million bucks! The photos are unbelievable. She blew us out of the water, she captured everything from the view to our special laughing moments and we couldn't recommend her enough.

nd scouted the location beforehand to prepare me. She went above and beyond all expectations and captured one of the most important moment in mine and my fiance's lives. I can't thank Amy enough for the support she has given us. The package I purchased came with its own gallery! How cool is that?!

ny, we were supposed to get married on 10/10/2020, but Covid forced us to postpone an entire year, which made things a bit complicated for our vendors and us. Our original photographer ended up pregnant shortly after we postponed with a due date roughly a month before the new wedding date, so we were in a bit of a scramble to find someone to take her place. Miraculously, the stars aligned, and Amy was actually free on our date! She immediately got to work getting to know us and familiarizing herself with our vibe and our vision. To be frank, I was dealing with some mental health issues (who wasn’t at that time!), and she very gently and kindly dealt with my decision fatigue and untimely emails. Leading up to the event, she was professional, on top of everything, and answered my rambling frazzled emails with no snark and all kindness. On the big day, she was on time, brought an excellent second shooter, and captured every single thing I had wanted (and honestly, it’s more impressive when you realize that she basically read my mind because I was not a good communicator.) She dealt with my bonkers family and friends and showed no signs of annoyance when she was trying to herd my family for portraits. I do not fancy myself as very photogenic, but I was beyond happy with all of my bridal pics, and our bride and groom photos looked totally natural and not forced or staged (and we are not folks that take fall photos yearly in almond blossoms, so we had no idea what we were doing!) The candids were fantastic, fun, and captured the mood of the whole event, and we love them. We had been really clear with her that since we had eloped and because we had waited so long for the event, we really did not want to have to “disappear” from cocktail hour for photos and wanted to spend as much time with our guests as possible. She made it happen! All portraits were done before the ceremony (our request) and we only had a couple quick snaps in between the ceremony and cocktail hour but spent almost the entire time with our party. The bottom line is that we found Amy to be worth every penny. I’d be surprised to hear that there was someone in the bay area to be as “totally worth it” as she was in terms of wedding vendors. I would highly recommend her and we are so happy that we went with Amy because we will treasure these photos forever.

our photographer. She also took great care in making sure we were prepared for what to do for photos with planning calls. On our wedding day we had gone a little over time, but she didn't rush us and was very professional. We would definitely recommend her as a photographer for any wedding event!

pictures turned out amazing and I am beyond thankful that my fiance connected with Amy to help make it all come together. She is the best!

Amy's an artist, both in photography & editing. Her rate was reasonable, photo turnaround was prompt, and the website she uses for photo delivery is very straightforward. You'll love working with her!

hotos! Would highly recommend Amy for your wedding.

tic as well. Overall very easy to work with and genuinely invested in a successful outcome... even though she has done it 1,000 times! Thanks Amy!

m to get to understand us, our venue, our timeline, our priority moments that we wanted captured etc. Fast forward to the day of - she was fantastic! She absolutely nailed every single photo - the big moments and the little details. We love the memories that we can share for a lifetime. Beyond that Amy's personality is amazing, shes a joy to be around, and she is incredibly thoughtful. She took the time to send us prints and a hand written note - we are so impressed by her. There are so many stressful moments that you as a couple will go through planning your wedding, don't let this be one of them, hire Amy Little.

fter your event. I can't say enough good things. Hiring her for our engagement shoot and wedding was the best decision ever. From our first conversation, we felt like we'd known her for years and this easy comfort made our shoots fun and breezy —and we're not naturally comfortable in front of the camera. Her humor definitely put us at ease. Her organization ahead of our big day ensured we had a clear schedule and shot list ready so we got all our desired photo moments while optimizing for us to spend as much time as possible with our guests. Have you been to a wedding where the bridal party misses the entire cocktail hour? Not ours! It makes a huge difference. We are over the moon with our photos. They turned out beyond what I expected, especially all these magical candids she managed to get of us and our guests. So much love captured. Highly recommend Amy. She made our day something truly special to remember.

, at all), but she was also an MVP in helping me to plan out and coordinate a surprise proposal. I already had a general idea of how I wanted to propose, but Amy was incredibly helpful in laying out the logistics to pull it off. This is partly because she's so knowledgeable about a lot of the proposal hotspots in the area. For us, it was Catstello di Amorosa in Napa. But even without prior experience in a particular area or venue, it's pretty clear that she knows exactly what she's doing and how to frame a beautiful shot. Amy was the first professional photographer either of us has hired, so as expected, we did feel a bit awkward to start off when posing or taking "plandid" photos. But Amy was a great coach in letting us know what to do or how to position ourselves for a truly natural feel. On top of that, Amy is very, very easy to work with--she's highly responsive, reliably punctual, has great creative direction and is genuinely excited for you and your partner (basically, she's your one-woman hypeman). 10/10 would absolutely recommend!!

nt all that and you are additionally interested in having someone who will make you feel supported about your decisions, talk nerdy on logistics, help you make sure that your plans make sense, be a calming influence on you and those around you during your event, snap your weird uncle right back into line should he fall out of it, reassure you if you need it, and generally be a hell of a good time to be around, you should definitely hire Amy Little to be your photographer. /// Quick recap: If you have excellent taste, you should work with Amy. If you have excellent taste and you’re rad, you should absolutely work with Amy. /// Amy is fucking awesome (can I drop f-bombs on the Knot? Is it like a PG-13 rating — I get one for free, right?). She's also a total professional, and she'll make sure that everything is clear from the get-go and properly set up for success. You'll know what to expect and how everything will go down. She'll check in to make sure everything is running smoothly and brainstorm solutions with you if anything isn't. She'll laugh at your extensive overuse of profanity and make irreverent jokes with you. She may ask your vendors to slightly alter the chair layout when she notices (before anyone else) that they’re a little off balance or not where you’d asked them to be. She'll immediately feel like a part of your family (but the good part of your family that you genuinely like and can be yourself around). She’ll even make people who absolutely hate having their photo taken feel comfortable and at ease. /// Amy also helped us navigate the uncertainty of Covid with tremendous grace and unwavering empathy. Our wedding was originally scheduled for the summer of 2020, and when that went sideways, Amy committed to sticking with us, and she was absurdly patient as we jockeyed dates around. When we pivoted to a smaller event at a different venue, Amy was kind enough to join us to scout the location and discuss timing for the day and the ideal schedule from a lighting standpoint. And if you’re thinking ‘whoa! I don’t need that level of involvement from my photographer!’ please be assured that she follows quintessential vampire rules: An explicit invitation is required. Having Amy as a cheerleader and stalwart beacon of support was huge. And that sort of compassion comes included by default — just like the good kind of family. /// Regardless of what you're having photographed, you're going to have to make a lot of decisions, and a lot of them will be stressful. This one doesn't need to be. Hire Amy. You'll have a stupid amount of fun, and you'll have a gorgeous set of images. And — probably at some point in there — you'll also have ice cream and / or cupcakes. You can't go wrong.

y there for us when we finally had our wedding to capture every moment and then some along the way. I'm personally very critical and Amy's eye for shots, lighting, perspective is unique. It blows other standard photographers out of the water. When first deciding her as our photographer, all of her photos on her profile/portfolio were straight up fire! Every. Single. One. And this is only about her photography skill....Her personality is the best extra bonus anyone could ask for. Amy is the most thoughtful, go out of her way, easy to be around person and we are truly grateful for all that she has done for us and capturing our special life moments. ~Jessica and Ravi

ve languages before the day of the shoot, and she used that information to create the right authentic vibe for us. As a person, she is very sweet, easygoing, and fun, and we had a lot of laughs together. We can't recommend Amy enough!
