I’m honored that you’re considering me to capture your life memories, and I don’t take that lightly! My clients look for a real connection to their photographer. If I’m just another box to check off on your wedding checklist, we may not be the best fit. Good and honest photography takes trust and collaboration. :)
I’ll respond within a day + we’ll plan a phone call to get to know each other and so I can hear all about your plans + I will tailor a perfect photography collection for your day.
If you’re inquiring about an engagement, portrait, or collaboration, you can email me directly at amyvanvlear@gmail.com
Unlike most photographers in this field, Amy’s final images have deep eye-catching colors instead of the usual washed off/faded flat look most wedding photographers use. On top of that she was extremely professional, very friendly and accommodating. I would recommend her to anyone who wants super cool & extremely professional looking images!”
TAMARA & CALEB
“Amy is an absolute joy to work with – we simply cannot say all the things we’d like to since the photos speak for themselves. Thank you Amy for all of your hard work. We’re so grateful you were our photographer. You were exactly the right person for the job... I cannot stress enough, you will not be disappointed with her.”
KAMRON & HANNA
“Amy is the perfect combination of professional, relaxed, and creative! She makes every environment she’s working with so comfortable and natural…she is so approachable and relaxed, so we never felt posed or awkward, and she captured exactly what my husband and I were feeling in the moment. Amy will always be my number one referral.”
LAUREN & SEAN
I never realized how much your photographer is around, and I was so thankful that Amy's enthusiasm and sweetness was a part of our engagement and wedding. You can tell she truly cares about her craft and her couples, and anyone is lucky to have her as their photographer!

WHEN CAN WE EXPECT OUR PHOTOS?
You’ll receive your final gallery within 5-7 weeks of your wedding & within 2-3 weeks of your portrait shoot, depending on the time of year. I promise it’s worth the wait! When I edit your photos I want to make sure every last one of them is PERFECT before delivering, but I still work quickly to make sure you get them as soon as possible.
HOW MANY HOURS/PHOTOGRAPHERS SHOULD I BOOK?
During our consultation I will help you figure that out! But typically for a full wedding day from getting ready to reception (7-10 hrs) I recommend having along 2 photographers. That will help things run along smoothly and allow us to document everything that’s happening at once.
HOW DO ENGAGEMENT SESSIONS WORK?
I have a guide to send you that will help with deciding on locations, activities, outfits, accessories, etc. Then we’ll chat to hone in your vision and collab to create an experience that’s a BLAST and represents YOU. Then we’ll meet up and have a damn good time!
DO YOU TRAVEL?
Yes! I have photographed weddings all over the place and am just a plane ride away. Depending on your location, extra fees will apply to cover travel and all that good stuff.
HOW MANY IMAGES DO YOU INCLUDE?
Every wedding day is different, but a typical wedding will be at least 50 photos/hour of coverage, and engagement shoots will be at least 60 total photos.
HOW DO WE BOOK WITH YOU AND WHAT’S PAYMENT LIKE?
I love to do consultations with all my couples because it’s very important to me that we make a connection! After you fill out the contact form, I’ll respond within a day + we’ll plan a phone call to get to know each other and so I can hear all about your plans + I will tailor a perfect photography collection for your day. Once you’ve chosen your collection, there will be a contract to sign and a 30% deposit to hold your date and seal the deal. The final 70% will be due 2 weeks before your wedding.
DO YOU DELIVER RAW IMAGES?
I believe that one of the big reasons you’re hiring me is for my creative vision and editing style as an artist, which is why I don’t deliver raw/unedited images. Rest assured, you will be receiving all the best photos and won’t be missing out on any memories!
