  • A documentary photographer + photojournalist, Amy is passionate about celebrating the beauty of people + culture, particularly in Detroit + the Midwest. She is a two-time National Geographic grantee, featured in The Guardian + LensCulture + exhibited widely, from Les Recontres de Arles to the Detroit Institute of Arts.

"I never really know what I’m going to find, but that’s part of the draw. No setups, no planning, no fancy lighting—just reacting to what’s in front of me. That unpredictability keeps it exciting. It feels alive, like I’m traveling."
