Incredible

Amy is the most incredible photographer I have ever had the pleasure of working with. She made everyone comfortable and added humor to the shoot to put us all at ease. Every time I see her photos I am able to see all the authentic emotions that were present that day. I feel genuinely blessed and honored that I was able to have her as my photographer to capture one of the most important moments of our lives. She truly cares about the couple and capturing these precious moments. If you are looking for a photographer look no further and you will have photos that will last a lifetime.

100% recommend!

I found Amy on the Knot and she was very responsive immediately. She was professional and she really made us feel good the day of the ceremony. Her guidance for photos was easy and she got our gallery to us very quickly. It was a sweet and simple process and we are very happy with the entire process!

Amazing Photos and Awesome Professional

Amy was an amazing photographer for our wedding in Austin. She understood our vision and came prepared with what we were looking for once we shared our Pinterest board. She knew our location and already had shots planned for us at Ma Maison. Highly recommend! She also made us feel very comfortable.

Amazing Experience and Phenomenal Photographer

cannot recommend Al Gawlik Photography enough! Al is an absolute artist behind the camera and such a joy to work with. From the very beginning, she made us feel comfortable and at ease, and on our wedding day in Austin, she captured every single detail with such care and creativity.
Her ability to see and document the most meaningful, candid moments blew us away. Looking through our photos feels like reliving the day all over again—she truly told our story in the most beautiful way.
Beyond her talent, Al is incredibly professional, kind, and attentive. She anticipated our needs before we even voiced them and handled everything with such grace, which allowed us to fully enjoy the day knowing we were in great hands.

AL is awesome!

Amy Lynn was super easy to work with, both during planning and day of. We initially picked her based on online review, because her price was fair and we wanted the digital copies of all of the photos. Day of, Amy Lynn put everyone at ease, laughed with us and was always nearby getting snaps. Definitely recommend!

Amy is the best!

I could not be happier with our experience with Amy. Her work speaks for itself, her photos are absolutely breathtaking. The speed and quality of her editing is astonishing. She was so flexible--she worked within our budget, as well as our various changes in plans over quarantine. She made my husband and I, both generally quite camera shy, feel comfortable and look so happy in every picture. And the details she caught really captured the personality and vibrance of the small reception we held. She managed to blend professionalism with fun and approachability, so not only were the pictures great, but by the end of the night she was beloved by our friends and family alike. Thank you Amy!!!

Amy is a rockstar!

She is seriously the best! We could not have asked for a better situation on our wedding day. Not to mention, she was so accommodating when we had to move our original wedding date to another date. She was very responsive throughout the entire process and was so easy to work with. We literally had so much fun shooting with her during the day. She kept things light, joked around with us but was also in complete control when we were doing our group shots. I would recommend her to anyone that is looking for a photographer for their upcoming wedding. We loved working with her! Amy is first class!

Absolutely Break-taking Photos!

I have worked in the wedding industry for a couple of years and have gotten to know a lot of photographers, but none have blown me away like Amy's photos. She knows how to capture moods and emotions into the photo so not only do they look incredible, they tell a story that keep that moment alive forever. I knew that I needed her to be my photographer and I am so thankful that she was available. My family and guests gave me so many compliments on her directions, timing and personality. Amy knew exactly how to direct us to get the perfect shot and the sneak peek of the photos that I have seen so far are absolutely breath-taking!

Amy is the best!!

Working with Amy was amazing! She captured the most beautiful and special moments from our wedding and made sure that we have memories we will cherish forever. We used Amy for our wedding as well as for my bridal portraits. She was professional, creative, and so much fun to work with. She kept us laughing, was loving and caring with our guests and family members, and made sure that we were comfortable throughout the entire day. Amy captured amazing portrait style photos as well as candid photos during our wedding. We are so happy we hired her and we can’t wait to work with her again!

Such an amazing Boudoir experience!

Since I can remember I have always wanted to do a boudoir session. And when I got engaged, I knew that having a boudoir shoot would be the perfect gift for my husband. As a coordinator in the wedding industry for 15 years, when it came time to plan my own wedding and hire vendors for it, it was really important to me to choose vendors that I had a personal relationship with and who were among the top 1% in the industry for what they do. I never even considered anyone else to do my boudoir photos because of how phenomenal Amy Scarborough with Betty Blue Boudoir (AL Gawlik) is at what she does. I chose to have my session on the same day as my hair and makeup trial run, but her packages do have hair and makeup included in them as well. She helped me ahead of time choose the correct outfits so I felt confident before I ever arrived. The location that she shoots in is absolutely perfect! And don't even get me started on the amazing robes she has available for you to use! I had actually been extremely sick for days leading up to my shoot but once I arrived she helped put my mind at ease and never rushed me. And once we started shooting, she was absolutely perfect at helping to direct me, putting me in poses that made me feel beautiful and sexy and helped accentuate my assets, and was a master at helping me feel completely at ease. And the photos turned out 100 times better than I could have ever dreamed! After the fact, she was so quick in the turnaround time of my photos and helped me every step of the way with choosing photos and helping to design the album which, in addition to the additional prints and awesome packaging, turned out perfectly. My husband still tells me that it was the best gift that he has ever been given! For all of the brides out there looking for a boudoir photographer who will not only provide you with the most breathtaking photos, but will also make the entire process so easy and seamless, look no further than Betty Blue Boudoir! And thank you Amy for making me truly feel like the most beautiful woman and for helping me surprise Bryan with the best gift. The photos are beyond stunning and so much more than I could have ever imagined them to be!!
