Measuring my own daughter this morning and seeing she has grown 2 inches in 6 months makes me very sentimental for the days of tiny toes. More of this precious girl and her big brothers later…

About Amy
Hi! I'm Amy! Right off the bat...the most important things in life to me are my family (my handsome husband and three beautiful children), my Jesus and capturing our life in pictures.
I feel that photos are to be shared, they exist to evoke feelings and help friends and family bond even worlds apart. I love meeting new families, taking their pictures and being able to be apart of their memories for just a moment.
I strive to bring every part of me to a session, I'm loud but introverted, I'm fun but serious. I will hug you when I meet you and treat you like part of my family. A session with me is just simply about one thing and one thing only...YOU.
Please feel free to contact me using the Contact link above to inquire about a child or family photo session in the Sacramento, California area. I'm looking forward to it.

Can you hear it? A new mama shushing her new baby to sleep…one of the best sounds in the world.

This is a photo from one of my very first newborn sessions back in 2007. I stumbled across it yesterday and did some re-editing. I love seeing how even when I was just starting out, I leaned towards lifestyle newborn sessions and 5 years later it is still my favorite way to photograph a newborn.
If you are expecting a little one, it is best to have him/her photographed in the first 10 days of life. Contact me before you have your baby so we can get you on the calendar. Often new moms call me weeks after the baby is born and we have missed capturing those precious moments that happen during the first few days of bringing baby home.
Sometimes all a photo needs to enhance the subject is…nothing.

It’s not like me to vanish off the face of the earth…but believe me I had good reasons!! In the very last minute, I jumped on a plane and spent four A-MAZE-ING days in Austin, Texas. Not exactly a city on my “must visit before I die” list but it is definitely on my “need to visit again” list! I am part of the Pinkletoes PT4P and Michele Anderson the creator and founder hosted workshops out of her home studio. It was a dream come true to spend a few days being taught by her, hanging out with absolutely wonderful photographers and making life long friendships. Not a moment was wasted, even our down time was full of chatter about photography and life and FUN.
I came home with some exciting new things for my business. If you are a future client of Amy Schuff Photography, or would like to be…then get excited! Good things are coming your way…
Until then, here is just one photo of the many many I took during the workshop. I’ll be posting quite a few different blog entries as we had the opportunity to photograph numerous beautiful and just plain lovely models.
This little sweet pea will always hold a special place in my heart…
…as Lily called him, this little sweetie belongs to a good friend who came to visit. Just for a night we had a house full of very good friends and it felt really nice. You know how sometimes you see certain people and it just feels like home…and that is what those friends are to us. Baby “Handsome” satisfied my fleeting baby itch…he was just so perfect.
ps. Thank you to all my new visitors from Pioneer Woman’s Beauty Assignment. I feel very honored that the photo of my late Grandma was chosen as a beautiful photo.
