About AK

AK is short for Amber Knowles. I'm a photographer based in New York
City. I'm keeping this section short because as my blog grows I will
reveal more about myself than I can sum up here. This blog is where I
get honest and hope to grow as an artist and entrepreneur. Please send
me your genuine comments and feedback.

"Why weddings?"  Because I'm a romantic. Because I tear during the father-daughter dance. Because shooting happy people makes me happy.

Sarah & Vivek, a Grand Central proposal

Vivek sent Sarah on a scavenger hunt with dares she had to complete along the way, like yelling “In-N-Out is better” at Shake Shack. Sarah is a west coast native, like myself, so it’s only natural for her to believe so. Eventually, he led her to Grand Central where he was waiting to propose in...

Jenny & Andrew, a Central Park Engagement + Updates!

I am sure someone out there is ready to report me to the general counsel of the world wide web for neglecting my blog for so long.  My excuse is that I have been working on getting a new website and blog up for so long that I neglected to post. But on the positive...
