What really happens when you step behind the lens at a wedding?
In this episode of The Vendor Confessional, Ivy sits down with Angie from AMRC Photography to unpack the unfiltered truths of the photography world. From navigating the tight-knit (and sometimes intimidating) photography community to making the leap into weddings, Angie shares the lessons she’s learned on building a business that’s equal parts artistry and client care. They dive into why communication is everything, how trends shape expectations, and the little-known challenges of capturing love stories under pressure. With plenty of honesty (and a dash of cheek), Angie reveals what it takes to not just snap a photo but build real connections that last long after the wedding day.
Whether you’re a bride, groom, or vendor peeking through the viewfinder—this conversation is perfectly exposed: raw, real, and just the right amount of grain.
