“I loved my time with Amaya!! She’s an amazing photographer. I really enjoyed our time walking around looking for cools spots as she had scoped out some neat areas. Our session felt so much more relaxed than a studio shoot. She asked me questions and talked to me about who I am while taking the pictures. She highlighted some of my best features as well as letting my personality shine through. We talked about what I was looking for and she was able to capture that well.”

“Taking pictures can be daunting and intimidating, but working with Amaya was such a refreshing and freeing experiences! I felt like I could be myself and just have fun. Amaya is so people centered; she cares about you as a person and seeks to portray all of who you are. She really took the time to learn about me and chose backgrounds that fit my personality. I felt so beautiful and well portrayed in my photos and couldn’t wait to share them with family and friends!”

“While I am not one to like taking photographs, Amaya made it comfortable and fun. She eased my tension and got me to play around and loosen up, getting me pictures I genuinely felt good in. Usually, I only like a few photos of myself, but I found I came away with more photos I liked than I knew what to do with! Amaya is great at highlighting the best parts of yourself and capturing “essence” while checking the boxes. She is patient, detail-oriented, and incredibly easy to get along with.”

“Amaya is so personable and lovely to work with. She never made me feel rushed and listened to my requests while offering her creative insight. She provided direction which made me feel so much more comfortable. When I first saw my photos, I thought "dang I look good" haha. I had never seen myself making some of the expressions I saw captured (in a great way)! If you're looking for a portrait photographer, I have no hesitation that Amaya will capture exactly what you're looking for and more.”

“Working with Amaya didn’t feel like a typical photoshoot but instead like collaborating with a good friend where we mutually captured moments. I adored the abundance of laughter and smiles that filled our time together. She made me feel at ease and created an amazing experience. When I first saw the photos I was like ‘is that me??!’ Then I was captivated by their candidness. They portrayed my authentic self.”
