OPE! Hey There! I'm Amber.
The photographer behind One AM Media, a Midwest-based photographer, proud member of the LGBTQ+ community, and professional third wheel. 📸🌈
I photograph weddings, engagements, couples, portraits, seniors, and the occasional cocktail that deserves its own moment in the spotlight. My approach is candid, relaxed, and a little unconventional, creating space for people to forget they're being photographed and simply enjoy the moment. There may also be some sarcasm, questionable jokes, and an unreasonable amount of encouragement to just do the thing.
Whether you're getting married, celebrating a milestone, showing up as your most authentic self, or simply want photographs that feel like you, I don't believe there should be a performance required in front of my camera.
Come as you are. Bring your weird laugh, messy hair, favorite person, pronouns, whole damn self, and whatever beautiful chaos comes along with you.
As a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community, creating a space where people can show up exactly as they are is incredibly important to me. Whoever you love, however you identify, and whatever your version of family looks like, you are welcome here.
I’m here for the real stuff: crooked smiles, ugly crying, chaotic dance floors, inside jokes, questionable dance moves, and the moments you didn't even realize were being photographed.
Because your photos shouldn't just look good. They should feel like you.
Come as you are. I’ll bring the camera, the sarcasm, and everything else.

The Nelson Family
I would highly recommend Amber for your photography needs! Our family photoshoot was fun in the snow, Amber adapted well to Wisconsin's winter and still managed to make a cold photoshoot fun for our two kids! The photos we received are a piece of art there wasn't one we didn't like! We will be a regular of Amber's, give her a try she wont disappoint!

I ABSOLUTELY recommend One Am Media!!
Amber not only does incredible work, but she is such a joy to work with. And she did a phenomenal job of getting our 2.5 yo to smile and come out of her pouty shell! Thank you One AM Media for giving us stunning family photos for years to come!!
