About Amy Sims Photography

Amy Sims Photography

Photographer

Amy is a New York-based wedding photographer. She believes that great photography is made when our humanity is revealed. Her documentarian approach is designed to artfully preserve the emotional memory of your day while not impeding on your genuine experience. From the excitement on the dance floor to the small moments in between the big moments, Amy's goal is to cultivate a photographic experience that will awaken your emotional memory of this monumental event for decades to come. Your job is to get married & stay in the moment. Amy's job is to bring those moments back to you. She looks for lovingly offbeat couples.

I think former bride, Chari, eloquently sums it up in her review: “Her style is unique, perfectly capturing the candid and human moments, while beautifully immortalizing all of the details. Amy listens to your wants and really goes the extra mile to capture your vision. She's fun and easy to work with, and we all felt comfortable just being ourselves.”

    Hiring Amy Sims to be our wedding photographer was the best decision we made! Amy was helpful, attentive, and lighthearted throughout the wedding planning process, and we cannot imagine our wedding without her. We hired Amy for her candid and natural style, and she did not disappoint. We spent over two hours with Amy for an engagement shoot before the wedding. We loved her calm and easygoing demeanor, and her pictures were incredible. In the weeks leading up to the wedding, Amy invested a ton of time with us and was always free to answer our questions. She sent us a thorough questionnaire for us to fill out, so she knew exactly what we liked and what we didn’t on the wedding day. Most importantly, Amy was incredible the day of the wedding! Her pictures are absolutely stunning and she expertly managed our massive and energetic families for family pictures. Even though it was raining, Amy found creative solutions for pictures. During the party, she was always in the right place at the right time and captured the best candid dancing pictures. We can go on for hours about how amazing Amy and her pictures are, and we can’t recommend her enough!

    Our wedding day in Central Park was an absolute dream, thanks to our amazing photographer Amy! We couldn't have imagined our day without her. She was extremely professional, very organized, and most importantly brought a really positive energy. She was so easy to work with from the interview to the wedding day itself, which was really important to us because we were organizing the wedding from Canada. Amy is so experienced and really put us at ease. She was great at getting everyone together for photographs and getting the kids to smile by saying something silly. All of our guests loved her. She also anticipated our needs and just knew the perfect time for a snack or a break. Amy has a great eye for the most beautiful pictures. We knew this from her portfolio but it's really cool to see this in action. She would catch the smallest details, like a water bottle, or a brightly coloured jacket, or people in the background. She scouted the most beautiful locations for us and it was really cool watching her frame the perfect shots. And when we got the pictures back, they really were perfect! Amy's greatest talent is capturing amazing candid moments and people's unique personalities. And because she puts people so at ease, she gets the best photos out of them, even if you're a little camera shy. Amy made our day into something truly extraordinary, and we couldn't be happier with the memories she captured for us!

  • So happy we hired Amy Sims Photography!

    We hired Amy to document our 75-guest wedding in Brooklyn. From the first emails to final delivery of the photos, working with her was a total pleasure. We talked with Amy before we hired her, and during that exploratory conversation she seemed to understand our wishes and concerns and gave us confidence we were all on the same page. We could tell she’s experienced—in addition to talented, so evident on her website and in social media posts—and we liked that her photos aren’t overly stylized, instead privileging the people and the moments in front of her. Amy helped us map and pace the photography for our wedding day, relieving us of potential stress. Her camera-side manner while she worked was excellent, both cheerful and assured, including suggesting movements or adjustments that improved the shots. She made us first-time models more comfortable. During the ceremony and dinner, she worked efficiently and without intruding on our, or our guests’, experiences. A number of weeks later, she sent us a polished package of images that we’ll treasure as reminders of our favorite weekend together. Thank you, Amy! --Hicks & Molly
