Joshua Tree & Palm Springs Elopement Photographer
THE WOMAN behind THE LENS.
My name is Amelia, people call me Ames, Meals & Meej.
I’m a photographer based in California, here to capture moments, big & small. Weddings, elopements, portraits, and more.
I grew up in Joshua Tree , CA & I have loved watching it blossom throughout the years. People seeing the tranquility & beauty of this beautiful desert.
I am extremely close to my family & love that I am near them as I raise my little Presley.
My husband & I have been together for over a decade & basically live a sitcom household where we live near the in-laws and people drop in whenever.
With life’s ups and downs, I have truly found that my career is so precious. Thank you for being here, reading my words, enjoying my work & supporting small businesses, let’s get to know each other even more!

Terra & James
“Amelia took the most beautiful photos of my boyfriend and I for a special date. She had this effortless way of making whoever is in front of the camera come alive and makes the moments that she’s capturing compelling. I feel so blessed that I have the tangible memories in my hands that she made a possibility for me & I will absolutely be using her for my engagement shoot, my wedding, and hopefully all the special times in my life after… to many more years of using her talented expressions to showcase on the walls of my home for the rest of my life. A true artist.”

“Amelia is an AMAZING photographer! Fun, creative, talented & professional, she’ll make you feel both comfortable AND beautiful in front of the camera.
Her direction, cues and fun loving attitude made the whole experience SO wonderful which ultimately led to the most lively, beautiful photos. She also delivered them so fast after the shoot! I couldn’t be happier & truly cannot recommend her enough! I already can’t wait to book another shoot with her in the future. Thank you Amelia ”
Alexandra & Louis
"My fiancé surprised me with an amazing photo session in the desert with Amelia for our engagement photos and it was one of the most magical moments ever! Amelia just knows how to capture love …and the sun, and the wind in your hair, and the desert. We feel so blessed to have had her witness this precious day.”
