    Amber, you and Jess did and AMAZING job. We are floored at how well you captured the warmth and love in the air that night. I can’t tell you how grateful I am – we both are! – and how much it means that we’ll have these gorgeous photos to look back on and remind us of the beauty of the experience. It’s priceless. I can’t thank you enough!

    Amber, these photographs are a gift to our entire family. They are stunningly beautiful, and a fittingly gorgeous, warm and timeless capture of an evening none of us will forget. Thank you, and thank you Jess, for giving us all these incredible images. I wish we could do that whole night again – and short of that, will watch the slideshow over and over again to savor the memory.
