Amy is such a joy to be around. I LOVE her laid back and happy energy. Its very clear that she is confident and happy in her profession and that shows in her work. She did a great job working with me to figure out what shots we would need throughout the day and she worked wonderfully with our dog who was at the ceremony and we wanted photos of. We dragged her every which way constantly all day for photos (sorry!) and she always had a smile on her face and was willing to follow me into the foliage for some of my more 'surrounded by plants' photos i wanted. She truly listens to the wedding party and does her best to make sure everyone is comfortable and happy.

my favorite part is she asks if you would like her help in posing you which was GREAT! With all of the wedding fog in our brains and my husband never posing for photos a day in his life this was very much needed and resulted in some BEAUTIFUL wedding photos. The website she provides with your photos after the editing is also STUNNING its so perfect for just sending off to family and friends, no more extra work on your end!

Amy is also such a pleasure, i asked her weeks after we got our photos if she had any more of a specific time of the night and she went back into her files to try and find some for me which means a lot to me. She captured some of the most beautiful moment of my life that day. The photos with my father for our first dance literally made me cry they were so good. I have a bad memory in general and was so scared that one day ill forget my wedding day, but I know with these photos that ill be able to hold on to the memories forever. (plus she even went above and took some amazing photos of guests alone as well which turned out stunning and my guests loved!)

Thank you Amy for such beautiful photos and such a wonderful experience.

We absolutely loved working with Amy! During our first interaction over text, I was immediately able to pick up on her genuine, fun energy. Due to the pandemic, we were not able to meet her until the actual day of our elopement but there were no worries there as we connected immediately! She is such an amazing, talented photographer for an elopement, especially a nature-based one. She also did above and beyond such as packing an extra pair of boots for our short hike (I forgot to bring one) and was very quick with the editing of our photos. I cannot recommend her enough - so happy I found her. I definitely plan to book her for an anniversary and a boudoir shoot next year. I recommend her to any and everyone!

When planning a wedding, there are so many huge decisions; date, location, food, entertainment, clothes. But the biggest decision, in my opinion, is the photography for the wedding. This is what you will look back on, what you will keep and treasure as a witness to your big day. When your specific memories fade, the pictures will still be there, reminding you of every detail that made up one of the most important days of your life. We were getting married in Orlando, even though we lived about three hours away in South Florida, so I started searching for “alternative” photographers in the area. I contacted a BUNCH of places that had lovely samples on their sites and social media accounts and had some lovely conversations with people that are good at what they do. In the end, however, choosing a photographer was the easiest choice we made for our wedding.

The minute I found The Tattooed Bride I stopped looking. Yes, I happened to be a tattooed bride. Yes, I was thrilled that tattoos were celebrated in her photography, instead of being hidden or covered up. Yes, I was thinking it would be a giggle to have “The Tattooed Bride” on my vendor list. But the decision wasn’t really about any of those things. Amy is a force of energy, she is overflowing with smiles and is artistic without being untouchable. She also creates ethereal work. There is a texture to her photos that grabs you under the solar plexus and takes your breath away. She creates images that are otherworldly but raw and real at the same time. She manages to capture those fleeting perfect moments in the spontaneous, enshrining them and keeping them safe for you to look at over and over again. Her and her partner Tim see the world a little differently, as cliché as that sounds, but it’s the truth. Tim and Amy own the Golden Tarot Ink Club tattoo shop in Winter Park, so they are artists through and through. They know about taking a moment and changing it into something that lasts the rest of your days.

In the year between getting engaged and getting married, Tim and Amy became friends. We went to their shop grand re-opening, Tim created and completed a tattoo for me, and there is no doubt in my mind that they will be a part of our lives moving into the future. Amy spent three days with us (Hindu-American weddings are usually multiple days) and was effervescent every single day. On our actual wedding day, Tim pretty much stayed with my husband the entire day, while Amy was with me and their assistant Hannah was running back and forth. When I changed out of my Indian wedding lehenga and into my wedding gown for our reception, it was Amy that buttoned up the back of my dress and saw me “put together” for the first time. They also were videographers (wow, do they have this down pat) and we are so excited to see the final product. If you need photography (or videography, or a tattoo) in the Orlando area (or an elopement, or a destination) I cannot recommend Amy at The Tattooed Bride enough.
