The photographer you NEED

Amy was absolutely incredible. She ran the whole day with calm professionalism while still feeling warm and personal. She handled every crazy moment flawlessly and never missed an important shot — the photos are some of the most gorgeous I’ve ever seen. I can’t imagine how we would’ve gotten through the day without her.

The Best Photographer We Could Have Asked For

I can’t sing the praises of Amy and Al Gawlik Photography enough!!! She was absolutely incredible in every way. She showed up early with a great attitude, got started right away, and knew exactly what she was doing with a fierce confidence that immediately made me feel comfortable and let me know I chose the right person to capture our special day. And then when we got the pictures, I couldn’t help but cry. They are all so beautiful and that’s coming from someone who is the least photogenic person so ever exist. I felt beautiful on the day, but the pictures really showed it. She knew where to shoot, how to have us pose, and what people to have in what pictures to make sure everyone was involved. These photos mean so much to me and my family and I will cherish them forever. If you want someone who is going to give you top notch, quality photographs for a very reasonable price and with a great attitude and lots of experience, please go with Amy at Al Gawlik Photography.

Chapel Dulcinea

Amy was so amazing! My husband and I had a very small family only wedding at Chapel Dulcinea and had the pleasure of having Amy as our photographer. She very very flexible and able to work with us within our budget. She was able to capture everything we wanted in 1 hour. She was great at telling everyone what to do, how to pose, when to come in or move out, etc. She was very friendly and made us feel so comfortable. We will definitely be considering her for any future needs!

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.

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.

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!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
