Capturing your love from Marriage to Motherhood and beyond. Bo***ir: Facebook.com/groups/oc.boudoir Hi!

My name is Amy (well, duh!) and I am a full-time mom and photographer. I have two children (currently, ages 5 and 1) and a full-time, successful business. I have been photographing the world around me since the age of 16. I studied film photography in Community College in my hometown before making the switch to digital in 2009. I have been in business for a decade and my clients will tell you, I bring a warm, comfortable, stress-free atmosphere to photoshoots and weddings alike. I am awesome with children (lots of practice haha) even those with special needs. I offer flexible hours to fit your schedule with a fast turn around time, I look forward to providing you with natural images of you and your family members that you will cherish for years to come.

A few things years of doing this has taught me to let go of (or at least just be prepared for). Here they are! What did I miss?Comments with mini below get a personal message from me with more details.

Mini's kick off this weekend! Which is your favorite location based upon these pictures?

Today I am 44! 🎉 I am so exited to turn my favorite number 👏🏼 so I am not mad about it at all. These years are evidence of life lived and loved. This morning, I am headed to the Waffle House (my favorite breakfast) with some of my favorite people and then I get to hug my family at my grandpas celebration of life today. While it is a sad reason to all be together, it is a reminder how blessed these years truly are and to live and love to the fullest!
Thank you for being a part of my village, my journey, and my life. Truly, all of you make this such a fun ride! Let’s go 4-4!

I thought for sure it was going to be my new cactus location (more on that spot soon!) but it was the good old Redwood Trees again this year (just like last year). Mission San Juan has one spot left which is surprising it hasn’t sold out yet but I imagine it will be next!
Minis are open in the link in bio.

Story time!
Some clients come back every season. Some come back after three years and never stopped carrying the last photo with them!!
Oh my gosh what a compliment! In case you need an updated photo of your family and sweet littles, Fall minis are open now if you want your next one.

This week only I decided to extend my mini session sale while we open to the public for booking! 😳 I never do this but I figured we could all use a little kick back right now so grab your spot for $25 off.

Link to book directly is in the bio or you can comment “mini” below and I will send it over!

Today she is 18!

The first time I met her she changed so much for me and my life and my heart and I didn’t even know it.

Seeing my brother become a dad was so wild. It was like he grew up overnight.

Every time I saw her, I tried to shoot a roll of film.

Just to remember her that little for a little longer.

Her first birthday was here before we knew it!

And she grew

And she grew

And one day she was a toddler with teeth and a whole personality!

My baby boo

Somehow she kept getting cuter and cuter

And I just kept shooting

And she just kept dancing through life

Paving her own path

Rocking out

And not stopping for anything.

And then again I blinked and she was a teenager

Senior pictures, graduation, and now

College!!

Today as she officially turns into a beautiful adult, I can’t help but to see that sweet little girl in her smirky smile and dimple and sparkle in her eyes. I have always called her my baby boo, my muse, and I am also so blessed to call her my niece. She got me shooting my camera again and has been my favorite photography subject and project since. Being her aunt has been such a joy.

So here is to being 18, Kaelyn! I am so thankful for you and proud of you and I can’t wait to keep watching you grow and do great things. The world is better with you in it! Keep shining your light.

Summer 2026 is almost a wrap! We still have a few fun things planned but here is a peek into how we spent the last few weeks/months. Some of our favorites were Wild Rivers, tent camping at Lake Cachuma, a week with mama in Morro Bay (kids only), fun times with our cousins and family, bike rides, water play (lots of pools), s’mores, the Santa Barbara Mission, feeding the ostrich and emus and exploring Solvang. We ate lots of good food and honestly, for the most part, it seriously all went so well. 🥰 I can’t help but to smile the whole time while watching this montage and somehow I could’ve shared even more! Hearts and lives so full and blessed.

Happy National Camera Day. 🤍 This good old Minolta SRT 101 is where it all began...
Back in the late ‘90s/early 2000s, when the police department was switching from film to digital, they were getting rid of their old crime scene cameras. My dad was a Corporal at the time and he couldn’t see perfectly good cameras go into the trash bin so he brought the whole box home. I told him I wanted to learn how to shoot one so he pulled this one from the pile, showed me how to use it, and sent me on my way.
I spent YEARS shooting film with this camera, developing my negatives in the dark room, before buying my very first digital camera, a Nikon D40, in 2009.
Looking back, it’s kind of crazy to think that one old camera changed the entire course of my life.
Thousands of families, countless memories, a business that’s now been part of my life for over 15 years... it all traces back to this little Minolta and my dad who saw something worth saving.
To celebrate National Camera Day, I encourage you to go charge up that camera in your closet, drop batteries in and maybe even a roll of film, and shoot something!
We are so lucky for the stories we get to preserve and for the simple items that unknowingly shape our future.
I’d love to know... what was your very first camera or what is collecting dust in your closet right now that needs to go for a spin? 📷
