Amber Stinson

My creative energy goes towards taking photos of a wide array of subjects. Anything that I find visually beautiful, interesting, captivating or moving I enjoy capturing in a photo. As a result, my photographic content ranges anywhere from landscape to portrait to abstract. I am particularly drawn to minimal scenes and fully stand behind the principle that less is more. My ultimate goal is to capture essence, evoke emotion, and maintain full presence and appreciation of each unique moment.
