Hi!  I’m Amber.  I’m a thirty-something year old mother, wife, and filmmaker.  I’ve been making “films” since my Mother received a camera for Christmas when I was 9 years old.  As a kid who moved almost every 2 years to a new state, I’ve always been drawn to this documentary art form of capturing the here and now so you could hold on it to it – and save it for forever.  I started a film club in high school – this led to a scholarship and unique opportunity to live with fellow artists in an old home at the University of Utah where I earned a Bachelors of Art in Filmmaking and Design.  Everyone in my film classes knew I’d show up to class with a film I made that was inspired by happiness.  I’d make films about kids at the bus stop, dance students dancing to class, documentaries on love – some odd stuff compared to the rest of the content there.  I decided to pursue weddings after watching one of my best friends’ wedding film.  I knew that this fit that style I had cultivated for so many years.  It involved working with couples on one of the happiest days of their lives, and creating a film that inspired happiness.  This snowballed into where I am today.  Shortly after meeting my husband he bought me my first Canon camera. – – Sorry Canon, I’m a Sony girl now – –   I have three kids, 7, 6, and 3 years old.  I have 2 sweet puppy dogs, and 14 chickens.  I enjoy an ice cold Dr Pepper and buttery popcorn while playing card games with friends. I snowboard and wakeboard, and love to hike and explore this gorgeous place where I live.  In my teens I traveled the world with my family, and while I still get the itch to go explore more –  I appreciate where I am now.  You can find magic where you are, and that comes back to my philosophy behind film.  Magic exists in the every day, and definitely on those special once in a life time days.  I absolutely love to find it, film it, and document it forever.  I hope this gave you a glimpse of who I am, and I’m eager to get to know you!
