About AK





(photos by Parris Whittingham)


The people closest to me call me AK or Ams.
I am a wedding photographer based in New York City.
At the core, my style is documentary &
my goal is to capture your day as it unfolds naturally.


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

xoxo, AK
