Marketing and Commercial

I have worked with Desautel Hege (DH) on promo photography for the Anthem Award-winning Washington Friends for Life campaign and with the Association of Washington Business (AWB) on the Washington in the Making 2040 campaign.

My photography has been praised for taking a photojournalistic approach and adding a natural feel to marketing campaigns. I would love to do more of this work.

You need versatile images and a photographer you can trust.

I got you.

Short term consulting

With over a decade of experience producing fundraising videos, I have had plenty of time to critique and reconcile the oftentimes tokenistic and savioristic nature of these videos. I have developed my own methodology for ethical and consent-based storytelling that every organization should utilize.

Basic photo/video training

I have mentored youth, artists, and communications staff on best practices for quality photo and video capture and using editing software (Adobe Lightroom, Premiere) to create better media assets with confidence.

Anything else that aligns with the scope of these offerings

Please contact me to discuss! I can also offer references to other BIPOC freelancers.

I have experience across creative industries.

Let's work together.

Testimonials

Amy has become our go-to event photographer! She's very skilled at capturing the minute, intimate, and detailed moments that make an event memorable. She is able to get a wide variety of shots that truly capture the spirit and vibe of each event, while remaining unintrusive and respectful with artists, performers, and attendees. She is reliable and easy to work with, always delivering a great (and succinct) selection of shots on a quick and dependable timeline.

Working with her was seamless, and her candid style ensured nothing felt posed or staged, giving us an authentic record of the day that we can share with the community and look back on for years to come. Her work has had an incredible impact, helping us showcase the joy and creativity of the event and the impact of public art on the community.”

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Amy across multiple photoshoots, and each experience has been filled with care, intention, and artistry. From initial planning to the shoot itself, and through every step of post-production, Amy brings clear communication, creativity, and a deep sense of quality to everything she does. Our sessions are not only fun, but also empowering and affirming. Amy creates a space where I feel seen, celebrated, and completely at ease. I’m incredibly grateful for the beautiful images she’s captured—some of my absolute favorites. Thank you, Amy, for your vision, your presence, and your magic behind the lens!

Amy was amazing to work with! She was very positive throughout the entire working process. After the first draft of the project, I knew that she would be able to provide a wonderful finished product to our team. It was a huge relief to be able to trust Amy with the design process and execution; it took a huge load off my plate! Amy has a great creative vision and is all-around a very competent, detail-oriented, and charming person to work with!

Amori's work changed my life. She got me through a high-conflict divorce by planning and executing a divorce photoshoot to celebrate me. Throughout this process, I lost hope multiple times, but Amori proactively put together a Pinterest board to keep me strong and remind me of the end. The divorce photoshoot itself was such a therapeutic and empowering experience. I honestly would've paid money just for the experience itself; the photos were a nice bonus. She was so good at directing me and making me feel confident and natural. I'm someone who doesn't know how to stand or what to do with my hands, and I felt so at ease during the photoshoot. The 2 hours we spent together, plus how beautifully the photos came out, helped me rebuild my confidence and self love. Additionally, Amori photographed my divorce party. She did such a great job capturing my favorite moments from it and making me feel gorgeous the entire time. She knew exactly what lighting to use in each room of my venue. She asked me for any special requests for photos and she nailed all of them. Amori is an extremely talented photographer, and it shows. I absolutely cannot wait to work with her again for any and all of my photography needs.

She is creative in lighting, poses, and the physical environment - she has a great eye! Her warm nature is caring and compassionate, making her subjects comfortable and at ease. I will be finding ways to work with her again and again.
