My "Ideal" Clients

Those who find value in the moment. They are the ones who live extraordinary lives daily. They are the ones who are grateful for the smallest details, and seek to observe what other's ignore. They find beauty outside of the superfluous and superficial. Who believe luxury is not monetary, it is owning a life you love and are loved in. They fearlessly go wherever their stories move them. Sometimes they are all of these things and haven't seen the back of the camera yet!

Hi, I am Amber Reid.

[I SEE EXTRAVAGANCE IN THE ORDINARY]


Here's what you really need to know:


I love people.

You are important, and so is your story.

Vision coming to life is where I take your story and it's importance and deliver!

I have been been in the wedding/events and branding industry for well over 10 years, so I have a lot of unique experience.

This is my full-time job along with co-owning a local studio in my hometown (The Local Archive).

My photographs share pieces of those memories you simply can't capture with words. The memory taking you back to smells at the lake after the 4th of July, the bitter cold that froze you to the bone when you went ice skating in Central Park, or that awesome anxious exhilarating thrill that made you question if you had the time of your life on that first rollercoaster. I'm here to help you reminisce all of those memories, the life you're living now, and the stories you've yet to tell.

So what is the first chapter you would like to start with?

Testimonials
Absolutely loved working with Amber! She made us feel really comfortable and brought so much energy to the shoot. She had a great turn around with the pics as well! Highly encourage you to use her! So talented 🙏🏼

From beginning to end, Amber is the BEST for the job. Any and every shot, she takes pride in. Even in the stressful moments of preparation, her attitude of servitude makes her an even MORE intricate piece of the puzzles. Her warm smile, soft tone and even softer touch on what she does behind the camera allows for a VERY easy time and DEFINITELY worthwhile. Thank you Amber!!!
— Prentis & Deb
