A Carmel Valley Photographer for Vibrant, Heartfelt Photography

Photography is not simply about pressing a button. Photography is about taking raw emotion, transitory expression, and small, defining moments and holding them in your hands forever. AGS Photo Art doesn’t simply photograph, but holds memories for a lifetime.

Some people don't enjoy being in front of a camera, but that's when we come in. Instead of stiff, posed photos, we create a relaxed, friendly environment in which to simply be yourself. Whatever your heart's desire for your session, whether it's full of emotion for your weddings, full of laughter for your engagements, or full of personality for your portraits, we work with your individual vision in mind.

Great photographs don't necessarily involve skill, but in getting to know you. By getting to know you, we make each photograph a reflection of your personality, your style, and your story. Every shot is taken with purpose, in taking in real, unposed, and lasting moments.

Memories can fade, but photographs can stand forever. Let’s preserve your cherished memories in breathtaking picture keepsakes. Get in touch with us today, and let’s make something lovely together.

Candid, Classic, and Completely You

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!

“Incredible wedding photographer!”

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.

Her photos capture this beautiful natural light and make everything classic, lovely, and the style is so perfect for California, especially Monterey. I felt so comfortable around her. She did our engagement, Indian pre-wedding celebration (Sangeet), my boudoir photos, and our wedding, and she was by far our favorite person to work with!
