My Logo!!! Finally, revealed!

Posted


Back in November, I began working with the amazing creative team at Peculiar Productions here in Greenville. One of our main goals was to build the “brand” that is Amy Clifton Photography. That brand had to be a reflection of who I am as a person and a photographer as well as represent the work that I produce. I quickly discovered how much of ME goes into my photography–my emotion, my quirks, my beliefs–and into the way I approach my clients. One thing that kept coming up in my discussions with the design team as well as surveys and conversations with my clients is that I really, genuinely care about my clients and their stories. I love to create beautiful photographs of you and your life, but I can’t truly do that if I don’t know YOU. It sounds really cliche, but I am honored when someone chooses me as their photographer, because I understand that preserving your memories is a huge deal.

I had a tough time deciding on my logo (sorry TJ!), but once I finally made my decision I haven’t looked back or regretted it for one second. I love it, and I believe that it reflects me and Amy Clifton Photography…”elegant yet edgy, classy but cool, sassy and sentimental, traditional with a twist.” I hope you love it, too!

Wedding Festival!

Posted

I had a great time at the Wedding Festival Saturday, and enjoyed a fun dinner afterwards with some awesome photographers from the area. And then I slept all day today, hehe.
For all of the super sweet brides (and grooms and moms and friends!) I met at the Wedding Festival, thank you for taking the time to stop by and look at my work. I know there is an overwhelming amount of information to take in at an event like that, and it’s hard to get to know someone in that brief time! I can’t wait to hear from you again so we can talk in more detail about your wedding. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy reading the blog and checking out my work from the past year. Talk to you soon!
Here are a few more photos of my booth. 🙂

ACP on Display

Posted

Today is a big day for ACP–my new logo and “look” will be on display at the Wedding Festival. I hope you’ll stop by to say hello if you are there! I am so excited–and a little nervous–about really debuting my work and my business…I’m certainly not new to the photography scene, but I’ve definitely been working behind the scenes, and it’s time to bring ACP to the front!

Here is a quick (icky quality) photo I snapped of my display tonight. I still have a rug and a couple of other things to add when I arrive Saturday morning, so I’ll take some more photos and post them after the Festival. 🙂 I’m looooovin’ my display!

See you at the Wedding Festival! (And hey, my booth is in between a wedding cake vendor and a caterer. Yummo.)

Coming Soon…Liam

Posted


As soon as Kristen and I began emailing back and forth about her maternity photos, I KNEW they were going to be amazing! Had never met her or her husband, but I just knew. Maybe it was all of her creative ideas, maybe it was her enthusiasm for having the session even though a snowstorm was supposedly on its way (um, no), or maybe it was the sweet innocence of their love story…

Kristen and Mitchell began dating the summer before 9th grade…yes, when they were only 13 years old. Kristen told me “After all these years of us being in love, for him to tell me that I am the prettiest I have ever been, and see in his eyes that somehow he really does believe that, is hard for me to put into words. Mitchell and I have literally grown up together and have been together more years than we have been apart.”
I don’t think anymore words are necessary. Liam is going to be loved so purely, so intensely, and I think these portraits truly express that…












Out of the bazillion images that I loved, these last three are my absolute favorites.



Kristen and Mitchell, you are going to be wonderful parents as your love grows with Baby Liam. I can’t wait to meet him! In other news, I will be at the Wedding Festival this Saturday. If you’re coming, please stop by my “studio” and say hello! Also, stay tuned for a b-i-g announcement about my new website. Woohoooo! Kristen and Mitchell’s proof gallery is now online! To view their full session, go to http://www.MyProfessionalImages.com/EventLogin.aspx?sid=132288 . The password is their last name.

Maternity #1: Super-Sneak Peek

Posted

I could not have found a better couple for my first maternity session! Kristen and Mitchell were fun, sweet, creative, and totally not afraid of the chilly weather on Sunday….I actually felt like I was cheating a little, because they had such great ideas! I am so excited to get their whole session ready, but in the meantime I wanted to share this super-sneak peek…

On another note, one of my friends and clients made my day today when she emailed me and said “By the way, I’ve been following your website like an obsessed groupie.” Awww, yay! I am addicted to reading so many other photographers’ blogs, and it’s pretty exciting to know that somebody (even just one little reader) is out there feeling the same way about mine! If you’re out there reading and looking, show me (and my fabulous clients) some love! 🙂
