and set my sights on becaming an elopement photographer for places like Yosemite, Zion, Joshua Tree, and more.

Amber mcneal is a Reno-Tahoe wedding + Elopement photographer with a passion for capturing your love in any form or capacity, anywhere in the world.
Behind the Lens
I started taking photos as a hobby in 2016 (thanks to my stepdad!) and when the world shutdown in 2020, I took it as an opportunity. So, during the pandemic, I invested in my education and decided to work towards making my hobby into my full-time career. In May 2023, I finally checked that box and added "full time wedding + elopement photographer" to my business cards.
With each session, elopement, and wedding, my love for this career grows and I found that one of my favorite parts of the job description is helping my couples have the most kick-ass day.
I'm amber. Your photographer with a love for love and a whole lotta honest truths.
I'm not just a photographer,
i'm a professional at keeping new mother-in-laws on schedule.
I'm a lover of every unique love story, regardless of who you are.
I'm an artist that gets giddy over the perfect camera settings for that golden hour light.
Because you and your partner are my soul focus on your big day, and making sure that you and all of your special guests are experiencing the fairytale you've been dreaming of is priority number one.
Capturing moments that will live forever is a pretty nice bonus, though.
yes to all of this
