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.
