    Amy was absolutely wonderful! First, our engagement photos: Amy was really creative in getting us hundreds of beautiful shots, and was even able to work with including our husky in the photos! Amy had so many good ideas for us that our shoot lasted over 2 hours. Once we got the photos back, I knew we had made the best decision for our photographer, and I was incredibly excited for our wedding day!

    On the day of our wedding, Amy arrived early and stayed with us during the very busy day. Our wedding party took a limo bus to different locations throughout Detroit to get some group shots, and they are so beautiful that I want to...

    We LOVE Amy! If we had to make a list of the best decisions we made for our wedding,booking Amy would be at or near the top of that list.

    I originally was only concerned about price. My fiance was convinced that engagement pictures were a waste of money, so to win the debate I was determined to find someone who did the engagement shoot for free while still having an overall reasonable fee. After a quick search on WW I was so excited to find Amy's profile. Her photography style was exactly what I wanted (journalistic as opposed to staged poses), her price was excellent, and she threw in the engagement session for free. Once we met...

    Amy was amazing from our engagement pictures all the way to the wedding. She did a great job at directing us to a location for our engagement shoot and putting us into the perfect poses. I'm a huge fan of a romantic lighting/setting and whatever she did with the editing made us look incredible. She also took beautiful pictures of our then six month old daughter.

    Dealing with her as a wedding photography was easy and stress free! She was always on time and kept up with our schedule we had for important picture moments. Amy is very creative and always asked us if she could try something different dending on the scenery we were around. Needless...

    My husband and I have loved our time working with Amy and our wedding day wouldn’t have been the same without her. She’s such a talented photographer and it makes it that much sweeter that she’s also such a genuine person. She listens to what you like and can capture every single moment in such detail that you’re reliving your special day every time you see a photo. We had her do our engagement pictures and she’ll photograph when we grow a family as well. She is so easy to work with and everything is simply natural and so beautiful when working with her. It’s fun just having her around and capturing all the quirks and love you share...

    Amy was so wonderful to work with! One of the most important things for us in finding a wedding photographer (to minimize our awkwardness) was the personality of the photographer. Amy had such a wonderful and friendly personality that we were immediately at ease. On top of that, her skills/style of photography/production were exactly what we were looking for. Incredibly easy to communicate with, Amy knew the style of photos we were hoping for and she provided us with exactly that. Combined with being exceptionally priced, her work has allowed us to relive our big day in a wonderfully colorful and vibrant manner that we will forever cherish. Most importantly, Amy was such a wonderful person with a huge...

    Choosing Amy Peppercorn, was honestly one of the best choices we made about our wedding day! From our very first meeting she was sweet, kind, relaxed (not pushy like some people trying to book a job!) and professional but still friendly enough to really make you feel comfortable. She is organized, and made us feel totally comfortable that no matter what "could" happen on that day, her equipment would work! We knew we didn't want traditional "posed" photos that didn't look like ourselves. Amy's work captures that absolute best part of any wedding, the REAL moments! We had many photographers recommended by our venue, but we chose Amy because looking through her portfolio made us excited for our day,...

    Amy is an amazing photographer and we were so pleased to be able to book her! She photographed a friend's wedding and we loved her style! The price includes an engagement session and she even designed our save the date magnets for us! She is very flexible and is open to picture ideas and concepts! She responds quickly to questions and makes you feel at ease! At the wedding, she was never in the way of the ceremony or events during the reception! When it started sprinkling, she found umbrellas in our wedding colors and we went outside for some umbrella pictures! She didn't let rain get in her way! Our pictures are truly amazing and she has such...

    Amy was fabulous for my August wedding.

    She did our save the dates, invitations, signs, menu and seating cards, as well as our photos. Her graphic design knowledge and creativity was a huge asset to the planning process, and she spent so much time working with me to make sure the idea in my head came out on paper.

    Her photos are timeless. We did engagement photos and wedding photos with her and there is not a single photo I do not like. During the reception, Amy was in the middle of the dance floor taking photos and my brother leaned over to my mom and said "I've never seen a photographer get into the...

    Amy stepped in for our wedding when our other photographer canceled 3 months prior to the big day. Needless to say, I couldn't be more grateful that Amy was the one to capture our special day. For one, she met all of our needs, and catered to us, knowing that we were stressed out and pressed for time. Amy also catered to our style perfectly. We were not your traditional wedding, and she was able to show the vibe of our whole day, just in the pictures. Not only am I in love with the pictures, but the compliments we have received about all of them, are so overwhelming great! I am just so thankful our old photographer canceled,...

    My husband and I had such a wonderful experience working with Amy this past year. There was no hesitation in booking Amy as our photographer after meeting with her and looking at her work. Amy was great to work with and was always flexible in scheduling and working around our schedules. We loved how quickly we received previews after our engagement session and wedding it was great to be able to share these moments with family and friend right away.

    Amy spent the entire day with us the day of the wedding and was one of the most helpful people the day of the wedding in terms of keeping us at ease and on schedule. Amy does a...

    Poor communication, 6 month turn around on wedding pics

    I am writing this as both a bride and a wedding planner that worked with Amy this last year.

    It saddens me to write this and give this rating bc I really liked Amy as a person and was excited to work with her. However, my experiences with her over the last year, timeliness, communication, and quality of photos for both myself and the bride I worked for both warrant a 1 star rating.

    It took me 5 months and 3 weeks to receive my wedding photos, it took her over 6 months to receive hers!! In both cases there are a lot of good photos....but there are a lot of not so good ones....

    Disappointing and exhausting

    Working with Amy was by far the worst the part of our planning our wedding, which saddens me extremely because we had received multiple recommendations to work with her, and were always in awe of her photos. The short story is while Amy is very talented, she is extremely difficult to work with. It's a very stressful time for any couple, and you should only be paying people that are there to help you make the process easier. Additionally, almost all of our other vendors had similar comments and the day of the wedding her attitude was as if she didn't want to be there. After the wedding it took 7 months to receive our photos after being told...

    Unfulfilled Contract

    Roughly 8 months after our wedding, we still do not have our photos. Amy also flaked on engagement photos last summer, so we never had any taken. She routinely says she’ll send them “this weekend” or “by Tuesday” but the deadlines come and go with no follow through.

    Queen of excuses; poor communication;

    We wholeheartedly regret hiring Amy as our photographer and would not recommend her to anyone. Dealing with Amy was extremely frustrating as she is the queen of excuses. Missed deadlines were never her fault even though the deadlines were set by her. We didn’t get our teaser/preview pictures until 3 months after the wedding, and it was only 3 pictures. We didn’t get our wedding pictures until ~130 days after the wedding, and we only received 535 pictures which was ~35% below the minimum specified in our contract (contract stated we would receive 800 – 1600 pictures). When we addressed this with Amy she said she likely had 200-300 more pictures to send us. Why didn’t she send them...

    Stay away, unprofessional

    I would NOT recommend Amy Peppercorn Photography. The entire process from start to finish was frustrating, unprofessional, unexpected, and EXHAUSTING. The last thing I wanted for my big day was to have to worry if my photographer was going to show up, or if I was ever going to get my pictures due to the horrible communication.
    It seems as if there’s was always “reason/excuse” every time. Whether it was her traveling out of the country, tires getting slashed, internet going out, not getting sneak peaks until week 7 after having to ask a couple times, telling me she would send me more pictures once she got to a coffee shop and never receiving them, not getting my...
