fun frames
THRU all phases
of your love
From budding relationships to proposals,
marriages that bloom into babies,
and all the beautiful moments that unfold in between...
I'm here to capture them in a way that is laid-back and full of laughter.
Just call me the love doc(umen)tor.
do you dig it?
For those who might not love the limelight, but can't imagine celebrating without their nearest & dearest
My kind of people are laid-back and light-hearted; they go with the flow,
belly laugh regularly, and are quick to shake things off.
And they're ALWAYS down for an adventure.
They don't necessarily like being the center of attention, but they couldn't be more excited to do the dang thing & gather their favorite people (whether that's 15 or 150) to party!
Say "I do" to adventure and unforgettable memories!
Hey, I'm Amber, and I'm not just your VT wedding and elopement photographer; I'm also your boutonneire-pinning, dress-bustling, Chuck Taylor-wearing guide, dance floor partner & friend on your big day (and beyond)!

over a photo shoot
One of my greatest passions in life is self improvement. I promise to keep learning new ways of the trade, accept feedback openly and reintegrate it into my business, always teach and speak from experience, and grow with you
thru love.
Growth
As part of my promise to take care of our home here on earth, I follow Leave No trace Guidelines on all outdoor adventures and donate annually to offset my carbon footprint.
Sustainability
I vow to be a fly on the wall as much as possible to document moments that unfold naturally. I may gently guide you into ideal lighting or spark a conversation that will elicit emotion, but I’ll never force you to do anything you wouldn't normally, nor will I ask you to recreate a moment "for the shot".
Authenticity
I am committed to putting in the work ahead of time (sending vendor recs, helping you plan your timeline, etc.) so you can sit back & relax on your big day. You can also count on me to bring the snacks, an emergency kit, and some breath mints for right before the ceremony.
Preparation
Love
is
Love.
All are welcome here, Period.
When you are with me, I will hold a safe and sacred space for you to be 100% yourself
and always do my best to capture you in that way.
Equality
MY GUIDING VALUES
Amber shot our engagement and wedding photos, and captured my husband and I perfectly. She is calm and allows things to flow naturally, but also has a talented eye and is able to move subjects into the perfect shot. There was zero stress on our wedding day with Amber taking charge. She got all of the shots I wanted, with plenty of time left to relax and enjoy the day. Amber even helped keep the night on track when our DJ was late, taking stress off of me- and for that I am unbelievably grateful. She is a professional who knows what she is doing and clearly LOVES to do it.
Also, if your photographer doesn’t wear corduroys and chucks, how could you even trust them????? xoxo"
the best day of your lives
i'll never take for granted THIS OPPORTUNITY to witness & capture
let's be
friends

“I know that day fulfilled its purpose because I am transformed after having that experience."
I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Amber. Her professionalism, her presence, her energy, her commitment to her craft, and her work are completely her own. She's best in the business so of course she has lots of happy clients, but she really makes you feel like you're the only one getting her attention. It's that special.
Her passion for not just photography, but the experience of capturing love and adventure on film, is infectious. Leading up to the big day, she is an ultimate source of wisdom, logistics, and outside the box ideas.
She keeps you grounded and informed without overwhelming you with details.
...from the moment she arrived she was so much more than just someone in the background taking pics. In addition to capturing the most beautiful photos I've ever seen and making each shot feel natural, fun, and unique, she also: glued on my fake eyelashes that were falling off, tied my husband's bow tie, pinned all the boutonnieres, took my dog on a walk, helped with decorations, music, and table settings, danced, laughed, and most of all-- made memories WITH my group. Her vision and presence is second to none...
For your wildest love adventures, choose Amber. for someone who will deliver you a gallery of your most beautiful memories that you can relive forever, choose Amber. For a friend who comes in clutch when you need her, choose Amber. Life is short, get the pictures. Book her now. Just do it."

“If you want a strong vendor on your team, hire Amber as your photographer."
Amber is easily the best photographer you will find and that’s not just because of her unbelievable photography skills. She’s also extremely easy going, fun, communicative, and makes you and your guests feel extra special and comfortable on your wedding day.
We did our engagement photos and wedding photos with Amber and couldn’t speak more highly of her. Our engagement photos were done in the comfort of our own home. Amber has a way of taking the most beautiful candid photos. She would guide us as needed but really let us be us. The photos turned out better than we could’ve imagined.
Amber and her team were amazing on wedding day, again allowing us to be ourselves and capturing all the special moments. She has the ability to take photos from unique angles and is super creative with her shots. Our entire bridal party commented on how awesome she was. If you want a strong vendor on your team, hire Amber as your photographer.
Your wedding photos will last forever and I am so grateful for that thanks to Amber."

“my husband and i feel so relaxed in front of her lens"
I truly can not convey with words how special Amber made our elopement day. From the very beginning, she was easy to communicate and vibe with. Keeping up with vendors as a bride can be so daunting but she made this part feel like a cake walk.
I completely upended our original, agreed-upon plans, and she happily accommodated our new, wild idea to elope months early on our snowboards. She helped coordinate the day and made awesome suggestions that created beautifully captured memories. She provided creative direction when needed while making my husband and I feel so relaxed in front of her lens.
Without Amber’s willingness and raw talent, capturing our dream elopement wouldn’t have been possible. We promptly received an amazing gallery, superbly edited and better than we even anticipated. We will look back at our adventure elopement photos with such admiration until death do us part.
14/10 recommend Amber of Thru Love’s Lens 💛
