Amber was nothing short of amazing before, during and after the wedding. From planning in advance on how to minimize the chaos during family photos to ensuring that we captured eve...
ry moment that was important to us on that day and working with us to a final product that we were thoroughly satisfied with. We loved our photos and the mini video compilation she made for us. I type this as I am sipping on the wine she gifted us for our wedding, a year ago. Thank you so much Amber!
Jay and Tamika were amazing! We couldn't have asked for better photographers to capture our wedding day. They were so attentive to our needs. Unfortunately, the coordinator we hire...
d didn't keep our event running smoothly, but Tamika stepped in bringing us water, checking in, gathering important people, etc. At the end of the event my aunt (the family photographer), cousins and sisters raved about how professional they were. They dressed nicely and demonstrated that they were prepared. They were punctual and throughout the planning process made our lives easy. We felt confident after speaking to Amber, Tamika and Jay during our planning calls, because they asked the best questions so they could understand our event and what was important to us. And we feel they captured the moments that were most important to us.
They brought such good energy to our event and we're incredibly grateful that they were able to be a part of our special day. They flew from Texas all the way to Wisconsin. They will definitely feel like friends by the end of the event.
Photographers are such an essential part of special events because they capture moments you don't think of or don't even see.
As an interracial couple we needed a team who could capture our different complexions with no problem. We were also looking for photographers with a photojournalistic style who could capture the emotion of the event and they did! We enjoyed reliving the day from different perspectives through our photos. And the photo quality is amazing! We're just thrilled.
Amber was AMAZING!!! Photography is maybe the most important part of any wedding, and not only did she capture our day perfectly, but she was kind and helpful every step of the way...
. She was encouraging at every step and a calming presence the day of. We got so many photos and they're all BEAUTIFUL. My wife(!) and I are beyond grateful to Amber for all her wonderful work. Looking through all the photos she provided brought back so many memories of our day, and we know they'll continue to do so for years to come.
Amber was amazing from beginning to end. We never doubted her or feared that she wouldn’t show up or be fully present. She was great at thinking of things you don’t/can’t on your w...
edding day & has a way of somehow being everywhere all at once. It’s been over a year and I’m still reviewing my images frequently & gawking! You won’t regret going with Amber!
Hiring Amber for our engagement session and wedding celebration was a no brainer. Our planner had a host of photographers lined up for us to review. When Ambers portfolio came up w...
e didn’t need to see the rest. Her photos were beautiful, vibrant and so creative. Her personality at our first meeting was reassuring that we had made the right decision. More than that Amber is understanding and goes out of her way to ensure her clients are happy. We had to postpone our 2020 celebration and Amber came to our house to take photos of our backyard ceremony to ensure that we had photos of our actual wedding day. When we got our photos back from our 2021 reception, I could remember each piece of the night because her photos were so detailed and special. They were phenomenal and worth every penny! Whenever I’m feeling down I look at my wedding photos and my day is turned around so quickly. Don’t waste anymore time looking for a photographer. Hire Amber and don’t worry about anything when it comes to your wedding. She will not disappoint and definitely understands the assignment!
Such a pleasure working with Amber and The Amber Studio! Professional, patient, and easy to communicate our vision. Quality, classic products! Did not disappoint! 2 years later and...
we are still ordering prints!
As the mother of the bride and a photographer myself, Amber impressed me with her previous work. It was difficult to schedule in person meetings with vendors for my daughter’s wed...
ding due to COVID; I looked at many photographers online, but kept coming back to The Amber Studio. When the bride and groom met Amber in a zoom call, they fell in love with her and her work. She is outstanding!! The photos she took at my daughter’s wedding are beautiful and the colors are so vivid. She offers a variety of prints (sizes, acrylic, canvas, etc.). She doesn’t skimp on proofs (we had over 1000) and she gives you both the high resolution print files as well as smaller files for web sharing. We paid for the second photographer which is also well worth it! They were both easy to work with and very unobtrusive. I could not be happier with the time Amber put into these beautiful photos and the quality of her work - the only problem is which ones to choose for printing because there are so many wonderful photographs!!!😊.
Amber was the only photographer we looked at and interviewed! We knew the minute we started talking to her that she was who we wanted to capture our day. The photographer was the m...
ost important vendor we chose and we couldn't have asked for a better one. We are an interracial/multi-cultural couple and our concern was that someone wouldn't be able to capture the special culture moments and get the lighting right on our skin tones. Amber knocked it out of the park!! She made us comfortable throughout the day as well. She would make us all laugh to get genuine reactions out of us and she really took her time with the shots. We had a wedding party of 25 (including us) and she handled it with patience, humor and grace! One of the things we appreciated most about her is that she captured every single moment we wanted perfectly and without us knowing. She was extremely discreet, like she wasn't even there! We can say with 100% certainty that Amber was the best and the only choice for our wedding day photographer!
Our wedding pictures are so stunning, they have been featured in two wedding mags! Amber was a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. I cannot recommend her enough : )
