Today’s business spotlight will highlight local photographer, Amy Marquez and her business IMAGES by Amy. Many of the pictures that adorn my website have been taken by this talented lady. Amy was born and raised in Iowa but has lived in the Kansas City northland for the last 25 years. She and her husband have been married for 20 years and have two amazing teenagers and an adorable 8 month old puppy. Amy says she is a self taught photographer and has been doing photography in our area for over 15 years.

Other than her passion for photography, Amy is also passionate about children, dogs, nature, traveling, watching sports and being a MOM. She loves to inspire those around her and is always “creating” in her head. Her goal when taking pictures is to provide a photograph that reveals the soul of an individual and one that stands out artistically.

Since she shoots on location, she has had the opportunity to do many sessions in Parkville. It offers a multitude of great backdrops for any type of session. The Parkville Nature Sanctuary and English Landing Park provide a perfect nature feel to photos. Park University has some gorgeous architecture and views. Downtown Parkville gives a “city” look with buildings and store front windows. There is also an alley with some cool murals and Amy says she can create an industrial look behind some of the buildings–you can literally get it all in one spot.

Amy specializes in Senior Photography but also does photography for children, families and dogs. She loves to capture moments that families will cherish forever.

Speaking from personal experience, Amy is just as professional as she is talented.

The pictures featured in this post were all taken in Parkville. If you would like to schedule a session, get more information or see more samples of her work, please contact IMAGES by Amy by email at:
