Review Highlights
I love photographing weddings because I believe in marriage. Marriage changes the world, grows families, and displays perseverance, sacrifice, and joy in the deepest ways! It’s such an honor to laugh, cry, and celebrate with couples embarking on the adventure of marriage together— from our first meeting, to engagement photos, to wedding day and 5 year anniversary pictures!
On this page, you’ll find just a sample of the reviews my past couples have given me! Since my first wedding in 2011, I have photographed 200+ weddings in Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Colorado, and Minnesota. Each of these couples have truly been a gift to know.

“Amelia was fantastic to work with! We hired her for our wedding & engagement photos, and they were absolutely everything we wished for. She had a kind, reassuring smile and it was so comforting. Beyond the professionalism and joy she brought, she captured every single moment. It was true magic! We just got to be ourselves and have our moments - we knew she’d deliver on capturing everything. I wouldn’t change a thing about our experience. She’s the best & I couldn’t recommend Amelia enough!”

“Amelia Renee was great in being flexible which was awesome. When we were running behind on our wedding day schedule, she was able to think fast and come up with another plan. She also was super fun to work with!”

“Amelia is the best!
Amelia is wonderful! From meeting her for cupcakes before our engagement photos, showing her around our alma matter’s campus for engagement photos, to the wedding day were she helped coordinate everything. She coordinated a second shooter to get every detail of our day, she sang baby shark to the little ones to get them to smile during pictures, and she made sure my husband and I had everything we needed. She is such a kind-hearted person and truly made our wedding day one we will remember forever!”
