I've always looked at life as art....with the right strokes, colors, and talent...you can create a masterpiece. For me, photography provides the perfect canvas. I see the world through my lens and develop my art in a digital darkroom.
Art has been the one constant in my life. My childhood was spent in a very creative environment, nurtured by two amazing artists. Even though I was surrounded by many sources of inspiration, photography quickly became my passion. My admiration for the work of Ansel Adams led me to experiment with digital darkroom techniques, and from there, I embraced the field of Graphic Art.
For me, the value of photography is immeasurable. I love the energy that it provides in my life. There is always a new challenge waiting for me to accept it and something new to learn. Photography has the power to inspire and communicate to any person, regardless of their culture or nationality. It can release a multitude of emotions, bringing anything from laughter to tears. Most importantly, through this art, I am preserving memories for generations to come.
I am honored to have the opportunity to share my talent and training with others. As my business grows, so does my passion for photography. I hope this adventure never ends, for I am certainly enjoying the journey. Thank you for sharing it with me. -Amy
If I haven't said it already, or enough, THANK YOU! I had NO idea I'd ever have the opportunity to be a part of pictures like these. I mean I thought I was doing good using Olan Mills. I will never look at photos done by Olan Mills, Walmart, JcPenney, or anywhere the same again. It was truly a dream to be apart of pictures that I thought only existed in the magazines. -Brandy
If I needed to have photos of my children or of an event done, this would be whom I would choose. This is a passion for Amy and not just a moment's hobby. She has frozen many moments with the click of her power and has captured those times you might forget. Amy McDow is a wonderful mother, artist and teacher. It has been a honor viewing her work. -Stephanie
I can honestly say that everytime I have viewed Amy's work, my breath has been taken away by the artistic beauty! She is truly one talented mom! -Linda
