    The Sweetest Soul With Extreme Talent!

    Amelia was without a doubt our favorite vendor from our wedding. We got to chat and get to know her a bit more before we booked and then had a dreamy evening capturing our fall engagement photos. She makes you feel like a million bucks and gets you smiling so big you have to take a smile break! There was a chance of rain all day on our wedding day and her presence was so calming, spinning it to a positive that the lighting was perfect for photos. She works amazing with family and getting them in to place for photos. Her art of capturing the perfect moment is priceless and her editing style does not take away the natural beauty of your surroundings. The photos are absolutely timeless and we will enjoy all our photos forever and ever. We cannot wait for the next excuse to get professional photos taken by Amelia, she truly is the brightest light and trust her to capture every important moment in my life. Book Amelia now!

    Talented, helpful, sweet, & fun!

    My now husband and I had to change wedding photographers to someone more local than our og photographer due to COVID. Amelia was very flexible with our quick change. She helped us not only plan our pictures but also our wedding timeline! She has a lot of experience which helped us make small changes to make our wedding events go smoothly. She has a very outgoing, kind, and fun personality. We had a lot of family pictures that we wanted and we were worried that we would not have time. Amelia was very efficient and made sure we got all the photos we wanted. Our family members said she was very enjoyable to work with too. My husband and I are in love with her quality and style of photos! She captured our wedding day perfectly! Highly recommend hiring Amelia!

    Awesome Photographer

    Amelia was an absolute delight to work with! We had to change our plans and cancel our photographer last minute due to COVID-19, and Amelia was willing to be our photographer with just under one month's notice! She was incredibly flexible, and very personable. She met with us over video chat, and helped us to feel a lot more confident in our photography timeline for our special day. She was able to go through our various family photos very quickly, and had great ideas for different poses and places to go! If you're wanting a photographer that will make you feel comfortable, get a bunch of good photos, and have lots of ideas, choose Amelia!

    A true joy to work with!

    We had the best experience with Amelia for our Engagement Pictures and for our Wedding this fall! I chose Amelia based on reviews on wedding wire and it was not a mistake! She is fun, bubbly, and makes you feel comfortable being yourself! She captured our wedding better than we could have ever imagined possible. Photos were STUNNING and we received them back so so quickly! I feel lucky to have found such a great photographer but even better person! I know we will be calling Amelia for years to come for family and futures baby photos! She was a true joy to work with as well as her assistant Erin! Thank you so much Amelia!

    One of the best photographers I have ever worked with!

    I had the honor of working with Amelia at a wedding this summer. I was the videographer. Amelia was a pleasure to work with and I was highly impressed with her attention to detail, creativity and how she interacted with everyone during the wedding day. She even found time to edit a few pictures in between the wedding and ceremony and was able to show them during the reception. After the wedding I was able to see the pictures she took and read the blog post she created detailing the wedding day. What amazing pictures and uplifting and positive comments in her blog. I would love to work with her again and I have already recommended her as a photographer to some of my wedding clients.

    Very organized and made our special day easy!

    Amelia did a great job of making our special day a breeze with her organization prior to our wedding. She was able to capture beautiful shots throughout the day and the finished product exceeded our expectations. She has a friendly and fun personality that puts you at ease during the whole wedding process.

    Highly Recommend. ❤️💙

    Where do we even begin! Amelia exceeded our high expectations. Our original photographer fell through two months prior to our wedding and thankfully we found Amelia Renee Photography. This turned out to be a blessing in disguise. The photos and video she captured and edited for us were stunning, creative and thoughtful. My mom found Amelia Renee Photography and told me that out of all the ones she found Amelia knew how to “capture the essence of the couple’s personalities”. Turned out to be so true. 😊 Amelia was super easy and fun to work with, I felt like I could be honest and upfront about anything. Highly recommend!

    I've known Amelia since college. (About 7+ years at this point.) After graduating and being able to see her photograph for various friends' weddings over the years, I knew I felt very confident in her abilities as a photographer. She did an incredible job capturing my wedding day. With her being one of my dear friends, it was extra wonderful to have her squealing when shots looked good and saying encouraging words as we smiled for the camera. I whole-heartedly recommend AmeliaReneePhotography for your future engagement, wedding, family, senior pictures -- You name it!! She is talented and determined to capture your charm and your radiant self!!

    We loved having Amelia photograph our proposal, engagement and wedding day! It felt so natural to work with Amelia, and we were so impressed by the moments she captured. She was so willing to work with us throughout the entire process. The end products are scattered around our home and we treasure the memories that she so perfectly got on film!

    When I was planning my wedding, the two things I wanted to spend money on were flowers and a photographer. To quote my grandma, flowers make it beautiful and a photographer makes it lasting ;). I’m so glad we decided to hire Amelia to take our wedding photos! They are STUNNING. We got a large print of one to hang in our living room and we ALWAYS get comments on it when guests come over. Her editing has a clean + natural look to it, which I love. Amelia is incredibly easy-going and just knows what she is doing as a wedding photographer, which makes the pictures one less thing to worry about on your wedding day. We had her do some family pictures for us after our baby was born this fall and she knocked them out of the park, even when our baby was crying the whole time (ha)! Thanks, Amelia!

    Amelia photographed our engagement session and wedding day. We were so pleased to work with her and she made us both comfortable in front of the camera! She came with her own creativity, but also is super willing to get the shots you want. Her editing skills are on point too. Amelia was willing to travel to Minnesota from Iowa, too, which was a huge plus. Amelia is personable and professional. Highly recommend!
