I have found my dream photographer!! I'm pregnant and had the most magical session with Amy. Not…read moreonly did she make me feel powerful, she brought out my inner goddess. Her energy makes anyone feel seen and known. I have the most magical photos from our shoot that are anything but pastel/basic. That's just not my jam. She knew what I wanted from an artistic point of view and BROUGHT it full force. They are seriously some of the most beautiful photos I have ever seen, while authentic and raw at the same time. I can't wait to shoot with her again after my son arrives!!

So, somehow I find a beautiful girl that agrees to marry me....hard part over, right? WRONG!!!…read more After contemplating a traditional wedding that involves parents, guests, caterers, lots of money, and even more fighting, we decide, what the hell, let's just elope!! At the last moment. Perfect....what do we need....minister....check.....car and driver....check....photographer....let me defer to the soon to be wife on that one! So, wife to be does her research and gets good ground level intel and gives Amy at And How! a call. She saw her work and heard great things about her. Wednesday is the wedding day...and she was calling on MONDAY. (I wasn't lying when I said it was at the last moment). Even though Amy had a shoot booked for that day, she so kindly rearranged things a little and, BAM, we got ourselves a photographer. Wife to be had several ideas of locations, shots, and even examples of what she wanted. Amy loved all of that and there was a lot of back and forth between the two to come up with some great locations. On the big day, Amy was right on time and ready to go. We had a blast with her as we drove to a bunch of different locations throughout Nashville. She had some great ideas, and between her and my wife, we really ended up with a ton of amazing pictures. Honestly, after seeing what my wife wanted to duplicate and seeing what Amy actually shot, I thought that Amy's work was better time and time again. Amy was great to work with and actually made the entire process a lot of fun...which is no small task with me. I loved her and her creativity and the way she worked. Thanks Amy!!

My daughter had both a full senior session and a mini…read moresession. Both went fabulous! My daughter is a stickler for details and perfection and Erin didn't miss a thing. The whole experience was designed around my daughter. Erin spent time before the session getting to know here and helping her make clothing choices for the shoot. For the full Session we had makeup done and Erin was there to oversee every detail. The locations she had scouted were fantastic. She caught every hair that was blowing and every wrinkle and fixed them. Nothing was rushed, nothing was time over. From the full shoot to now, my daughter lost weight. Erin designed a mini session to allow her to capture some of the new look as well. We couldn't have been happier. I have to admit to being a true skeptic about the whole Senior pictures idea. Was I wrong. It was worth every dollar!

Not only that, but he truly brings the personality of our family to life in his photos. He listens to our requests and makes sure that our session fits our needs. The experience of having someone help you with wardrobe styling, planning where you'll hang your photos on your wall, helping you choose your favorite photos and place your order, then coming to your home to hang your prints is like none I've ever seen. It's truly a concierge service that is worth every penny. Photo sessions with Kevin are a true delight and give us lifelong family memories to display in our home, but it's the care and attention to detail that he shows throughout the process that makes his services unique.
