    1000/10 recommend!!!

    Working with Amandarose and her team was an absolute dream. From the very first call with her we knew we were in great hands. She was communicative, thoughtful, friendly, and just such an immense talent. We did our engagement shoot with her several months before our wedding which was a great opportunity to get a feel for her style, both from a photography and personality standpoint. We absolutely loved both, and knew from the moment we started shooting with her that she was the best choice we could have made. She kept in touch over the next few months, working closely with us as well as our wedding planner to nail down wedding day schedules and visions. Talk about amazing organizational and communication skills! Once wedding day arrived, Amandarose's cool, calm, and FUN demeanor was just the best complement to the vibe of the entire day. Both she and her team moved seamlessly throughout our wedding, and the end result shows just that. Our pictures are better than we could have ever hoped for! We have loved sharing them with family friends, and catch ourselves looking at them constantly – we really feel like they're works of art. We've also received SO many compliments on how beautifully the day was captured. We truly cannot recommend working with Amandarose and her team enough!! 💕

    AGS Photo Art's reply:

    Annie & AJ, thank you for the incredibly kind and thoughtful review. I had such a great time with the both of you at your Pebble Beach engagement session and your dreamy Carmel Wedding. Wishing you two the very best!

    Exceptional Wedding Photography

    Amandarose was our wedding and engagement photographer and we were blown away by both by the outcome and the process of working with her. We were looking for a wedding photographer who could tell the story of our day, capturing both documentary style and more traditional photos. She excels at both. We love how she incorporates digital and film while keeping the same feel between the two mediums.

    I would encourage anyone looking for a photographer to find someone you enjoy spending time with - between her trip to Texas for our engagement shoot to the whole wedding weekend, we spent a lot of time with Amandarose and thoroughly every minute of it.

    Three months after the wedding, we still look through our pictures almost daily

    Amandarose captures all the big moments, and little special ones in between

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about Amandarose and her team at AGS. We wanted a photography style that felt timeless, bright, and natural for our wedding, and most importantly, someone who could capture all the little genuine moments throughout the day. We also loved that she photographs in both digital + film.

    We were introduced to Amandarose through our planner, Kaitlin. She made us feel comfortable right from the start. During our engagement shoot, we were both a little nervous and felt awkward at first, but Amandarose has a ton of experience and knows the right cues and vibe to keep couples feeling comfortable and excited.

    During our wedding day, Amandarose and her team were incredibly supportive. They were our biggest cheerleaders and really felt like friends that we had alongside us the entire day. They were also incredibly kind to our guests. We were especially pleased with how her team interacted with our shy flower girl & ring bearer, who absolutely loved her team and as a result, we were able to get tons of adorable pictures of them.

    We have so many photos that we love from our wedding, and really feel like Amandarose was able to capture the feeling and experience of our day from start to finish.

    After the wedding, we had a call with Amandarose to design an album of our favorite photos. She did an incredible job in preparing a draft of the album and we spent a couple of hours fine-tuning the design and getting it just perfect. We are so excited to have this as our first family heirloom and pass it down for generations to come.

    If you're looking for a photographer who captures authentic moments and feelings & feels like a supportive friend cheering you and your loved ones on, look no further than Amandarose!

    Amazing photographer!

    Amandarose is FANTASTIC!! We are so thrilled with how our photos turned out. We chose Amandarose because we thought she had the most artistic eye, and we were right! Amandarose worked with us to get optimal lighting at our venue and golden hour lighting for our photos at Carmel River State Beach. On the day of the wedding, Amandarose directed us and and our guests with grace, ease, and professionalism. Her photos captured the heart of our wedding.

    Thank you so much Amandarose for photographing these special moments we can now treasure forever! Please do not hesitate to use Amandarose as your photographer!

    Incredible Wedding Photographer!

    Amanda was creative, professional and accommodating our unique day as a big blended family. I never had to deal with any family picture drama on the day of the event because we covered EVERYTHING ahead of time. Amanda also taught me how to pose and captured everything we asked and more! Highly recommend!

    In love with our photos!

    AGS Photos team was amazing to work with and the photos are absolutely stunning!!! Could not recommend them more.
    Amandarose was very accommodating and understanding of our vision and budget. She recommended things that made sense for our day and we are so thankful.
    On the day of the wedding, Kristin and Jamie went out of their way to ensure we had all the photos we wanted to capture. They were so sweet and even stayed few minutes later than scheduled to capture our special dances.
    Amandarose did an absolutely amazing job editing and delivering our gallery. Our family and friends were absolutely awed by our photos - looked straight out of magazine! We will forever cherish these photos.

    Amazing Minimony Experience

    Amandarose was beyond helpful, professional, and all around amazing for our fall ceremony. We had to postpone our big October 2020 Bay Area wedding and decided to still have a mini-mony with immediate family in Monterey. From start to finish she was completely attentive and responsive and suggested such beautiful locations. I would absolutely recommend her and we hope to use her for some family photos in the near future!

    Wonderful Carmel Wedding

    After having our once in a lifetime Italian wedding cancelled due to COVID, we decided to do a last minute elopement to Pebble Beach. We were afraid that we wouldn’t be able to get someone to work with us on fairly short notice. We were lucky to find Amandarose....she was terrific. She helped us get organized..listened to our vision for the ceremony and was able to give us options to meet our needs. On the big day, she showed up at our hotel to work with the bride as she got ready and the. Led us to a few locations for pre-ceremony photos. The ceremony was on a cliff over the Pacific and she got great shots of us as well as a picnic on the beach after. We loved the photos she provide us a few weeks after our trip. She was great.....engage her if you can!

    She saved the day!!

    Amandarose did an amazing job during our wedding capturing all the vibes while simultaneously making us feel comfortable. She has a wonderful eye for what looks beautiful on print and was able seize it effortlessly. I want to say her greatest (most valuable in my opinion) quality is knowing the Carmel/Monterey area so well that she was able to offer a backup location to shoot our post ceremony shots. We had the unfortunate pleasure of witnessing Monterey weather change its mind and without skipping a beat she suggested a secondary location that she was 100% certain would not be impacted by the overcast. You really saved the day! We are truly grateful and will definitely be working with you in the future. I will be recommending to all of my close friends in need of photographer.

    Engagement and Wedding Photographer

    Amandarose was an absolute pleasure to work with every step of the way! We clicked right away and she really took the time to get to know us from the beginning and even sent us a nice little gift. She worked very closely with our wedding planner throughout the process including the day of the event to make sure everything ran smoothly and we had sufficient time for pictures. We are so happy with how our engagement photos, wedding photos and album turned out. I highly recommend her and her team to anyone looking for a very thoughtful, detail-oriented and talented photographer!

    Amazing work!

    Amandarose is amazing!

    She made my husband and I feel comfortable in front of the camera, as this was our first photoshoot. Amandarose is super friendly, professional, and easy to work with. She took the time to get to know my husband and I. We let her know what we envisioned for our engagement photos and she recommended a few locations in the area. She was super helpful when it came time to pose for the pictures, adding special details. My husband and I definitely felt comfortable on our wedding date with Amandarose and her team. The pictures came out beautiful! I highly recommend AGS Photo Art for engagement/wedding pictures!

    Great photographer to work with , like a friend

    Amanda Rose was everything we hoped for and more when we decided to choose her as our wedding photographer , first thing she is very professional , very punctual and does what she says she will do , those qualities alone takes most of the stress out of working with a wedding photographer.
    She listens to your ideas and incorporates them into the photos and has many ideas of her own she gladly shares with you , things we didn’t even think about , we got so many great pictures before , during and after our wedding.
    We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great wedding photographer , thank you Amanda Rose for giving us such beautiful photographs to look back on our special day

    Highly recommend AGS Photo Art!!

    Amandarose was amazing to work with! My fiance booked her to take photos of our proposal. She captured all of our joy and excitement from that moment and helped us feel incredibly comfortable in front of the camera. The weather wasn't ideal that day so my fiance and Amandarose had to change up the location last minute. She was so helpful in scouting out a new location and put his nerves at ease. The photos came out beautifully and are such a joy to look at and help us remember that moment. We highly recommend working with AGS Photo Art!!

    AGS Photo Art is Simply the Best!

    Amanda is simply the best! Capturing our most special moments and making us feel comfortable in front of the camera. She was available for all questions, concerns and calming any of our pre-wedding jitters about making sure to capture the small details. Amanda puts you at ease and makes you feel like you've known her a lifetime. I wouldn't trust anyone else to capture one of the most important days of my life. She made sure every single photo was a reflection of who we are as a couple. AGS photo art comes highly recommended for any bride to be!

    AGS is incredible

    It is hard to put into words how incredibly wonderful our experience was working with Amandrose at AGS. We booked her through friends who just adored working with her, and after our experience with her, I must say that we absolutely adore her as well.
    First and foremost, she is one of the warmest, most genuine people we've had the pleasure of knowing. She's more than a photographer – she has become a friend. She’s a great communicator, always goes the extra mile for you, and genuinely cares about the end result (photos) but also your entire experience working with her from start to finish.
    We worked with her on our engagement photo shoot, throughout the months leading up to our wedding, and again on our big day. She helped us create a vision, outline the type of photos we wanted, and was always there to answer questions to make sure we felt comfortable with everything.
    Her talent is boundless; she’s able to find the perfect moments, angles and shots that wow’ed absolutely everyone who has seen our photos.
    Her charm, graciousness, and experience made us feel incredibly comfortable during all photo sessions, despite the fact that neither of us had spent much time in front of a camera. She captured every moment, every perspective; using light, shadows and other elements to breathe life into every picture.
    if we had to go back and do it all again, we would book her again in an instant. Amandarose exceeded our expectations and really was one of the best investments we made for our wedding. The day went by so fast, but she captured the moments to make it last forever.

    We love Amandarose! My husband and I got married last month and were introduced to Amandarose through our local wedding planner in Carmel. As someone not quite comfortable in front of the camera, she made it super fun, relaxed and stress free (much appreciated on the wedding day especially)! She worked quickly to get pictures of our large family and nearly 200 person wedding. We loved working with her so much in our engagement shoot that we hired her for our rehearsal dinner as well! Our photos came out beautiful and she was a pleasure to have at all of our big events to capture the memories of a lifetime! We highly recommend AGS photo!

    An Excellent Photographer

    Amandarose is an excellent photographer with a keen eye. She was very detail-oriented, made sure to cover all the bases, and asked us about a lot of things that hadn't occurred to us. She took time to make sure she knew what we wanted in our wedding, and what we wanted the photos to look like.

    AGS Photo Art is the best

    We worked with Amandarose for our wedding and she was seriously perfect in every way. We were planning our small Carmel wedding from NYC but she made it seamless by sending us information over email and scheduling phone calls so we were ready when the big day came. Not only was she super organized and friendly, the best part was how experienced she was during the wedding day. She easily directed many people and made us laugh and feel comfortable when we did the intimate couples shoot. Afterward, the photos were as gorgeous as we hoped even considering some were shot in really bright sunlight. If you're reading this review, your search is over - book AGS Photo Art!

    There is not much to be said other than, absolutely book Amandarose! From the very first meeting over tacos and Coronas, we knew that she was going to be our photographer. Her personal touches shone through every time we met or spoke with her via phone, email or in-person. Her attention to detail is impeccable and she was 3 steps ahead of us when it came to making sure she captured our day.

    Even before the wedding, she came to meet us (way out of her way) to do our engagement photos which was not an easy spot to get to. Right away, she jumped in and made us feel extremely comfortable with being photographed. Which, unless you're a model, is not something you expect to be strange at first. Amandarose made it as easy as it possibly could be.

    She was confident and knew how to run the show, but not pushy or overbearing. She was always directing traffic with a beaming smile, making sure that everyone involved felt comfortable.

    As the bride, she felt like a friend and someone that I could actually talk to. I loved having her in the room with me on the wedding day and true to form, made me feel special and beautiful.

    If you're looking at other photographers, don't. Amandarose should be your choice!

    After talking to Amandarose and hearing her vision, I felt confident that she was the right photographer for our intimate wedding. She delivered by capturing who we are as a couple with her staging and choice of different shooting locations. Her calming presence and style not only with us but the whole family blended seamlessly into our perfect day.  In addition to the photos, her personalilty, professionalism, energy, enthusiasm for craft, and artistic vision/direction will always be a cherished part of our perfect wedding day.

    Amandarose is absolutely incredible! Not only is she an extremely talented photographer but she is also a wonderful person and a true delight to work with. She worked tirelessly to capture every moment of our special day and even came the night before to capture some extra moments from our rehearsal dinner. Her pictures are stunning and we know we will cherish them for years to come. Amandarose became more than our photographer, she is now our friend. We highly recommend her!
