Words can't describe how amazing Amy and her team were at photographing our wedding weekend. Amy was so lovely to coordinate with and made wedding planning so fun.

Katarina & Jeremiah

We hired Amy for our Berkshires wedding in September and loved working with her! From our very first virtual meeting we could tell she got us and knew exactly what we were going for. We asked for photos that were more candid and captured special moments instead of a lot of posing and artsy photos, and the results were fantastic! On the day of the wedding we could see Amy zipping around the whole venue getting plenty of shots, reading the room, magically appearing to take photos when she could see guests grouping together, taking direction from picky family members, and I could go on. Above all, we really appreciated that Amy was organized, quick to respond, and a kind person with a calm vibe. She brought those calm vibes to our wedding and we're so grateful.

Ian Stewart & Yen

If you are having a wedding in the Berkshires, look no further than Amy Inglis. Long before our wedding day, Amy instantly made us feel that we were in good hands. She took the time to get to know us, our expectations, and helped to plan out the timeline of the day. On the day of the wedding, Amy was there before we even arrived and helped us prepare and make sure everything was under control. During the ceremony and reception, she was always in the right place at the right time and captured every moment in a special way. She is also very patient, calm, and accommodating, and was a pleasure to work with. We are completely blown away by the quality of our wedding photos, and we cannot recommend her enough!
