My Journey to Photography
As a child, I loved art and science. Exploring in my backyard or creating a masterpiece, I became engulfed with joy in the moment. Photography feeds this love, as a delicate balance of art and science. When my second son was born, I decided to learn more about photography, to help me capture all the important but fleeting moments. I fell in love with photography and spent my spare time learning all about it. I realized that photography changed me. I started to see light and composition all around me. Photography made me slow down, and appreciate God’s great beauty, from my child's eyes to a Kansas sunset.
I now have three boys who have been great practice for me. As I captured their lives in photographs, family and friends took notice, and began to ask for my help in capturing their special moments. I love giving people this gift of preserving their moments in a beautiful way. The importance of these moments cannot be measured. I hope to recall these special moments, reliving them again as I look back on my own family photographs, sharing them with my grandchildren.
As a mom to three active boys, I have developed a knack for photographing children. I understand the stress of getting the whole family ready for pictures. I hope to help this process be as painless as possible, so you can just show up ready to love each other, and let your kids be kids. I will work to make the process a little fun, and capture you in a beautiful way. As a mom, I’ve seen it all; not much surprises me anymore. I have dealt with spit-up, tantrums, and bad moods. This experience helps me to remain calm, ready to capture the next special moment.
I feel extremely grateful that people invite me into their special moments, and that I can share my passion for photography with them. If you feel that I could be of help to you, I would love to help you capture and preserve your fleeting moments. Please contact me at amymengphoto@gmail.com.

"Amy took beautiful pictures of my daughter. She took my wishes into consideration and turned them into art I will cherish for the rest of my life." -Tabetha |

"At a time when high quality cameras are relatively inexpensive and readily available, it can be easy to think anyone with a nice camera can take good photos. However, after working with Amy it is exceedingly clear no amount of modern technology can replace a skilled photographer. She is friendly, considerate, helpful, and easy to work with. She made our shy little boy feel at ease and entertained him during each photo session. The artistic vision that Amy brings to the photos has impressed us as much as her ability to accurately capture our family and personalities. The photos have exceeded our expectations each time." -Lisa |

"My family had a wonderful experience working with Amy. With 3 young daughters- 5, almost 2, and almost 1- I was concerned about how our time with her would go. Not only was she exceedingly patient and calm, she managed to take beautiful pictures of my family. I am so please with our photos and our overall experience that I can recommend Amy without reservation and will be using her again." - Elizabeth |
