HEY! I’M AMBER
LET'S HANG OUT AND MAKE SOME MAGIC!
I am known for leading with my heart first and foremost. It is the compass of my life and it has never failed me. I am open, genuine, honest and approachable. I want all my clients to feel like we have been friends forever.
The core of what defines me; typical Gemini (always up for an adventure), kitchen dance parties (especially if we are talking choreographed dance routines), singing loudly in my car (with the windows down of course) and a deep love for all animals (especially our cat, Sky). My two beautiful children and husband inspire me to be a better human and artist every day.
Capturing emotive, creative and heartfelt images is what drives my work. I love to play in the light and shadow. They both have a very special place in my heart. Just like life, one can not exist without the other.
No matter how you stumbled upon me, I am so happy you found me. Thank you for taking time out of your day to look through my work and connect with me. If what you see inspires you, speaks to you and gives you all the feels, make my day by reaching out.

Photographing families have always been the heart of my business. Being a mother and wife, I understand how precious these moments really are.

FUN FACTS ABOUT ME
-
MY ARTISTIC HEART
Creating and expressing myself through art is an important aspect of who I am. I was a theatre geek in high school, dabbled in writing and love to paint (even though it's not my strong suit).
-
OBSESSED WITH ASTROLOGY
Astrology is my guide in life. If you know, you know. My astrology signs are: Gemini sun, Pisces rising and Taurus moon.
-
LOVER OF MUSIC
Music is the soundtrack to my life. I always have music playing in the background. I love to dance and love dance music, but I am a fan of really any type of music (just not country, unless it's Beyonce).
CLIENT REVIEWS
You will not find a more down to earth, talented, easy going and genuine photographer in Calgary. Amber has a way of making you feel at ease while she captures stunning photos of your family. We have done family pictures, as well as maternity and newborn photos with Amber and have been impressed every time. Our only regret is not discovering her earlier.
SMYTH FAMILY - CALGARY, AB
"Amber has taken pictures of my family on many occasions. They are pictures I go back to time and time again! She is so organized and great at preparing us before the actual shoot, even offering styling advice. During the session she is great at making us feel comfortable especially when we feel silly and she has such a calm and engaging presence with the kids that their true personalities shine through in the pictures."
ENGSTROM FAMILY - KANANASKIS, AB
"Amber captured our small winter wedding in November of 2020 and we couldn't have been happier with her work. Our engagement photos and wedding photos turned out better than we could have ever imagined. We also loved working with Amber as she was organized, professional, fun, and a great person to be around."
