Meet Ami!

The girl behind the camera

Blessed mom of three, photographer, professional list maker, and definitely not a person you should ever put on speakerphone.

I was born in the ’90s and grew up right in the middle of three sisters and two brothers, so I’ve always been surrounded by a lot of people, a lot of noise, and a whole lot of love. These days, I’m a stay-at-home mom to a set of twins who have made it their personal mission to leave me fifty shades of tired, while also entering the preteen stage with my oldest. Prayers are appreciated, lol.

Somewhere in the middle of motherhood, I found photography. I had become so wrapped up in taking care of everyone else that I felt like I had lost a little bit of myself. Then I received photographs of my newborn twins, and something about seeing that season through photographs completely stopped me in my tracks. I could see what I had prayed for, what I had worked so hard for, and what I had created. I could see the beauty in a season that had felt exhausting while I was living it.

That feeling stayed with me.

Photography started as a creative outlet and a way to explore a part of myself again. I taught myself everything I could, spending countless nights reading, practicing, watching videos, asking questions, and figuring things out along the way. What started as a hobby eventually became a business, and five years later, it has become one of the greatest gifts of my life.

Today, I get to photograph couples, weddings, families, newborns, and seniors throughout Western Kentucky and beyond. From wedding days in Paducah to newborn sessions in my natural-light studio, I get to document so many different seasons of life, and I never forget how meaningful it is to be invited into them.

But what matters most to me is the people behind the photographs. I care deeply about my clients and the memories they are trusting me with. I want you to feel comfortable enough to laugh, be yourselves, and actually enjoy the people you’re with.
