I had such a fun and professional experience with Amy, I am camera shy and self conscious about how I look in photos but she guided me and gave me friendly directions to make sure I got the perfect photo! She has a great assortment of outfits and also is very open to any ideas or inspiration you may have. I am so beyond happy with all of my pictures! Thank you Amy!

In the realm of finance, where precision, professionalism, and trust are paramount, impeccable presentation is non-negotiable. Our experience with Amy Dawnelle epitomized excellence in every way. She put my team at ease and made the entire process not just enjoyable but empowering. She really captured something authentic in each of us, which is exactly what I was hoping for in our headshots and team photos. She took her time during the shoot, gave us a ton of options to choose from and was very timely with her post editing turn around. I highly recommended Amy, she's definitely got the eye and the skills to go with it.

Amy is such an amazing photographer! She did our newborn photos and not only are they amazing but she had so much patience and care for our newborn. My husband and I will most definitely have her take more photos soon. Highly recommend Amy to anyone!

UPDATE:
We hired Amy (again) to do senior portraits for our younger daughter in August and it was a beach shoot. What a fantastic experience! Great communication throughout. A very professional experience. The photos are exactly what my daughter wanted and she is so happy. Can't wait to create our grad announcements. And the photo books Amy created for both daughters are treasures. Worth every penny.
We had Amy do our senior portraits and it was a great experience. Amy made my daughter feel so comfortable that she really had fun during the session. The portraits came out even better than we could have hoped! Amy kept in contact and we knew exactly what to expect each step of the way. We highly recommend her.

My family portrait session with Amy was amazing. I’m still over the moon about the results. She was timely and efficient and made us all feel so comfortable. I have two young children and she was able to get the greatest photos of them even while they were getting antsy. I would highly recommend Amy to ANYONE! I will definitely be using her again in the future. Thank you, Amy!

CORONA MATERNITY, NEWBORN, FAMILY & SENIOR PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER
Hey there, I’m Amy Dawnelle, and I specialize in capturing family portraits that feel real and true to who you are. My approach is to create a relaxed, fun atmosphere where you can be yourself and let your personality shine through. Just genuine moments that you can treasure for a lifetime.
What exactly is "modern heirloom" photography, you ask? It’s my process of creating tangible heirloom portrait art with a fresh take on traditional maternity, newborn, and family photography. I want to capture the essence of your family in a more organic, natural way with casual posing and silly prompting as well as focusing on authentic moments that showcase your family's unique personality and dynamics. The result is a collection of images and heirloom art pieces that tell a story and capture who you are as a family.
