More about Amie M....
What do you love about your job?
I love being able to capture moments in time forever. Time moves so quickly, and our memories are fallible, but photos allow us to relive those important moments years, even decades, later. This is even true of portraiture as much as it is true of events; by personalizing portraits, a photographer is able to capture a glimpse of a person’s spirit. I love the challenge of making each portrait session as personal and authentic as possible.
What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?
When photographing weddings, I try to make each one special by capturing the details that set the tone and define the day. Many weddings have similar events throughout, but each couple is unique and even weddings held at the same venue can be completely different. I recognize that and make sure to seek out those elements that really show who THIS couple is and what their personalities and their love looks like. When photographing individuals or families, I use the same philosophy by learning about the person or people I’m photographing so that I can bring out their personalities, not just their smiles.

A fun fact about this photographer
I was raised on the coast of Maine and moved to Texas when I turned 21. I root for most New England area teams, but the Dallas Stars are my favorite team in sports!
