Short Bio-
Growing up, once I realized I wanted to take photos, I had to learn how film worked. When the digital world emerged, I couldn't have been more excited. I couldn't run out of film and I could immediately view the photos I had taken. When I was in high school, I was introduced to a little program called Photoshop. I couldn't believe the endless possiblities Photoshop had to offer. It was then that being a photographer as a career crossed my mind and it became more than just a hobby.
I have always been obsessed with taking photos. I have also always been obsessed with weddings. So what better than to become a wedding and portrait photographer. In 2010, Amber Shaw Photography was established. I was recently voted Best Photographer in the Best of Utah Valley 2011. I plan to be a household name when it comes to wedding and fashion photography.
My style is modern but traditional. Cutting edge but vintage. Chic but daring. I'm obsessed with creating unique photographs. Whatever your personal style and personality, I can capture it.

Short Bio
I have always been a creative person. I was always interested in art. I used to do alot of scrapbooking, (alot) and had many friends who admired the pictures in my albums. One of those friends hired me to do her family pictures, all I had then was my little kodak digital camera and my brain, and it pretty much snowballed from there. This wasn't something I would have ever thought of doing as a career let alone having my own successful business. So along the way, I have had to learn (alot of times it was by doing things the wrong way) how to get the effects I wanted. Gradually got better equipment and try to learn things along the way. I also make collages with all of my shoots to capture some of the feeling. turning a few pictures into a work of art. The best part of being a photographer is all the friends you make along the way. When I gain a client, they always come back for more, and that trusting relationship goes along way. Helps me to build the self confidence I need in making this successful business.
