welcome, lovely engaged couple!

my wedding photography style is joyful and romantic, and if you are too, then read on!

I seriously have the best job. Though you'll hardly notice me when it counts, I'll have a front row seat for the happiest day of your life. I'll squeal in excitement when you slip on your dress. I'll cheer at your first kiss as husband and wife. I'll cry with you when you dance with your daddy (and mom!). I'll sing and laugh (and dance!) when the celebration begins.
  
Service is my love language, and it comes from my heart. I want to bring a happy, energetic presence to your wedding day! See that smile? It's a permagrin on my face because I absolutely love my job and making people look and feel amazing and comfy in front of my camera.


hi there! I'm amber

AND I COULD POSSIBLY BE THE HAPPIEST PERSON YOU'VE EVER MET

more about me 

" I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."

- maya angelou

Bright and joyful. Warm and authentic. Not only the photos, but the photographer too. When it involves the happiest day of your life (so far!), it's about so much more than photos. You have to love her and completely trust her. It's the biggest honor and privilege to be chosen for such an important job.

I will tell your unique story from beginning to end. All the big things, plus all the sweet moments you didn't realize you missed. The real and raw emotions, tender touches, belly laughs and tears.




My focus is warm and evenly lit images, creamy skin tones, and vivid colors. When all is said and done, I will create for you a collection of authentic and classic photographs you feel, that will preserve your legacy of love and commitment not only for you, but for your children.

I promise to only add joy to your wedding day. Guaranteed. I am not just a wedding photographer, but a friend who will be crying all the happy tears with you as you walk down the aisle!

My pricing is always all-inclusive! That means you get all the edited photos. They will be uploaded to an online gallery, where you and all your friends and family can choose their favorites, download, share, and order prints! My full day wedding packages include an heirloom album as well- which I think is the grand finale to a beautiful day! I also offer discounted engagement sessions to my couples so you can have lots of beautiful images to fill your walls and home!

If you are planning an intimate Hilton Head Island elopement, I have special pricing just for you! Read all about that here, and be sure to send me a message if you have any questions!

Thanks for hanging with me! Once you decide I am the one, and I have your date available, there's only 2 things to do! I will send you an electronic contract that you sign, and you will pay a 30% retainer by check (or minimum $300), credit card, or Venmo ASAP. That's it, easy! Then it's official baby! 

After you are officially official, we can schedule your engagement session (if you are getting one) for anytime you want!!

Engagement sessions are so important for both of us, and I offer a discount to my couples. Here are a few reasons why I love them:
-You get GORGEOUS photos for your wall (of course!)
-You and your hubby-to-be become comfy with me, and my posing and directing style. Guys hate photos, I know, but so many times my guys tell me I make it fun for them! You want him to get comfortable with me
-I learn what you like and don't like! Are you self-conscious about something? Do you have a favorite side?
-You get to know me as a person, so it feels like you have a friend with a camera following you around all day!
I can also help you pick outfits! My style is bright and airy, so light, neutral colors help me achieve this final look! I also LOVE dresses! They will give you something to do with your hands, and they have lots of movement!

Once we get about a month away from your big day, I will send you a link to a questionnaire. It's pretty easy, it just has some questions that will help me prepare for your wedding day! I will ask for a group shot list, your bridal party's names, your special family situation, things like that. Filling it out on my website is so easy!

Around 2 weeks out I will call to finalize a timeline!  At this time I will also request your remaining unpaid balance. Again, credit card, Venmo, or a check is great!

Yay, we made it!!! I am a phone call or text away, if you need anything at all! I will arrive a bit early to come give you big hugs, get set up, and go scouting for great photo spots! This is the best part, and I always get so emotional seeing my brides! 

I will take tons of photos, and we will have a blast! I will be showing you the back of my camera through the day, so you can see how stunning you look! That will magically melt your fears away, and you will relax and enjoy yourself! I try to perfect the photos in camera so my editing time is minimal, which means you get them back fast!

I will do my VERY best to get your first sneak peek out within 3 days. To top it off, I ask for 4 weeks to have your gallery finished, but usually it's sooner!

I will send a link, and you can view, download, share, and order prints if you'd like. You can also order prints and products through your gallery.  I hope you absolutely love your photos!

If your package includes an album there will be much more info to come! I can't wait to get that album in your hands!

If you choose either of my 2 packages that includes as album credit, then I will get working on it right away!

Usually I will choose my favorites that tell the story of the day, and send you the spreads to review! You can add, change, or delete until it's perfect!
  
I've included albums in my packages for 2 years now, because I think they are SOOO amazing! Digital files are important, but don't you want something to see and hold everyday? Can you imagine your grandbaby on your lap looking at photos on your computer screen? I love them so much, and I know you will too.

"We had the most amazing experience with Amber! She was the first vendor we hired, and from our initial conversation, it was so clear that we had to have her at our wedding! Not only is she an incredibly talented photographer with the most beautiful style, she is such a kind, warm person who will make your day truly special! She made us feel so loved from the beginning, and genuinely felt like a close friend by the time we met her in person on the wedding day. She'll capture the most amazing moments and will make you feel like the most beautiful people in the world! We absolutely love our wedding photos and will cherish them forever. Thank you Amber for being such a huge part of our wedding experience and for taking such gorgeous photos of the best day of our lives! We love you!"

"From beginning to end, Amber has been the most kind and talented person we've ever come across! She has poses ready for anyone (like us) who don't know what to do in front of a camera and it all looked so picture perfect! My favorite thing about her is that when we looked back at our wedding day, she amazed us in being able to capture EVERYONE at some point or another smiling and dancing and that meant SO much to me! She captured every detail, every small sideways gaze and smile, even photos I would not think to have. I know that for every monumental event in our lives, I want her to be our photographer for it all!"

Amber has been such a gem to work with. From the moment of connecting with her we knew she was a perfect fit to capture our big day. Given the 3 date changes due to Covid, Amber stood by us along the way with the most upbeat attitude to keep us with hope that everything would be ok. She truly cares from a heart that is bigger than her camera! Our wedding photos are FABULOUS! We love you Amber!

"Amber was amazing and very versatile. I changed my mind 100 thousand times and she adapted in the moment! She has a sneak peak of my photos right away the weekend of my wedding which was great! Would recommend her to anyone I knew getting married and needing a Savannah wedding photographer!"

" Look No further...book amber!!!"

"Amber was by far the most SPECTACULAR wedding photographer anyone could ask for! She is so incredibly friendly, sweet, and TALENTED!!
I truly believe that Amber can make anyone look like a natural in front of the camera, she was so easy to work with and captured every emotion and moment perfectly! Amber is so professional, her response to emails were so quick, the timeline that she creates for the day of is perfectly organized ahead of time to make sure you don't miss any special photos. Amber really does go above and beyond for her couples and my husband and I couldn't imagine working with anyone else for our special day! Do yourselves a favor and hire this beautifully, bright individual and I promise you that you will cry at every candid shot she captures!!

"my husband and i couldnt imagine working with anyone else..."

""We threw our wedding together in a matter of weeks. My husband didn’t want to wait another year and we wanted to get married at our farm in front of my great grandparents home, because we decided it’s time to tear it down. I immediately texted Amber PRAYING she would be available, as she has done ALL of our other events. SHE WAS! Amber was so sweet. So calm. So wonderful. When I say she captured everything - I mean absolutely EVERYTHING. Our pictures are PERFECT. Amber is so sweet, so genuine and her passion for what she does is SO beautiful to see. Amber, thank you for everything. We’re forever grateful!"

frequently asked questions

1. How would you describe your photography style?

My style is a mix of lifestyle/journalistic, with a touch of traditional photography mixed in. I get the posed group shots like family formals, and the posed wedding party photos. The ones grandma will want. My personal favorites though are the candid shots, details, the things that you didn't even know happened. Sweet moments between people when they don't even know I'm watching. These are usually the ones that are the most special. Laughing, crying, sweet expressions, hugs, hands, children playing. Those that are unplanned and unposed are the best!  

2. We don't know what to do with our hands! Can you help us with posing?

Of course! Gentle and natural posing is one of my specialties! I have taken education courses that have taught me posing for flattering all body types. You will be comfortable I promise, and it won't feel like work at all!

3. How soon will we get to see our beautiful photos?

I know you are so excited, so I post a sneak peek within 3 days of your wedding days! Do you know some photographers don't even let you see the first photo for months?? To top it off, the full gallery is delivered within 30 days at the most!

4. I'm ready to book! What happens next?

Exciting! When you are sure I'm the one, I just require a 30% retainer, and a small electronic contract to be signed. Then we are officially official! I can help you with other vendors too. We can get your e-sesh scheduled, then it's time to kick back and relax! When it gets closer to your date I will help with timeline and anything else you need. Contact me below to make it official!
