Pro Type: Photographer

Photographer and Producer of climate, entertainment and women’s focused stories and portraits. Amy is also a visual media educator and ambassador photographer for SanDisk.

She started her photographic life as an entertainment photojournalist. Her work has been published in Elle, Vanity Fair, Variety, the Los Angeles Times, NY Times Magazine, Entertainment Weekly, InStyle, The Hollywood Reporter, Los Angeles Magazine, Photo District News, Rolling Stone, W, LA Confidential, Angeleno, and broadcast on ABC, BET, CBS, HBO, KCET, MTV, NBC, Showtime, and VH1.

Near and dear to her heart is a project she co-crafted with nationally recognized non-profit Step Up Women’s Network called “Photojournalism for Girls ... The I Dream To Project”. The program ran for five years, and taught over 400 underserved teen girls in LA, New York and Chicago the tools of photojournalism as the skills to meet with the very women they dreamed to be.

Amy believes the underlying power to transform lives, markets and communities continues to be the stories we share and looks forward to the opportunity to share yours!
