Chicago native, with a big love for hot dogs and pizza. Now resides in the land of the pines, and not mad about it one bit. After doing hair for 6 years, I suffered a stroke, leaving me unable to use my right hand fully, blessing me with a career change I’ve always wanted to make, just needed that push, and boy did I get one! H E N C E LEFT SHOT

Leen was amazing on our wedding day! Not only did she show up early, but she fully supported us with a smile on her face and was a calm presence when dealing with family dynamics. I also appreciate that she took my crazy long Pinterest board and brought it to life, making sure to get us a couple of editorial pictures. She is amazing at capturing the joy of everyone in the room, all throughout the day. Couldn't recommend her more!

I began this journey several years ago (formerly as Brandi-Lee Photography). Recently, I had decided to transform my brand into a more intentional & creative art. Photography has become one way I can express myself creatively while freezing a moment in time. I'm especially drawn to documentary & lifestyle photography as I love how natural the emotions are in the photos. There is a story to be told & I look forward to helping capture it on film. I like to consider myself as a visual storyteller.

At Untethered Times Photography, I believe your wedding day is more than a celebration—it’s the start of your forever. I specialize in capturing love stories through timeless, natural photography. From the big “I do” moments to the smallest details—the tearful glances, stolen kisses, and joyful laughter—I aim to preserve every chapter of your day so you can relive it for a lifetime.

Untethered Times has been absolutely amazing to work with for my family photos. My son is not a fan of sitting still at all and is difficult to get him to cooperate in general. Emily was fantastic at distracting him and was so creative in doing so! She was very flexible when we had meltdowns, and the photo quality is outstanding that you would never know he was crying just minutes before! She was very personable and made us all feel relaxed. I will only ever use Untethered Times for all my photography needs and recommend everyone to use her.

We came up with a shot list, but she had a good eye in terms of suggesting ways of capitalizing on the venue and working with the space in real time - her confidence in directing us made me feel comfortable and natural. Our pictures came out beautifully, in what I feel is record time compared to my peers’ experiences with photographers, and now have our happiest moments with friends and family captured for us to look back at in the future.

Hi there! I’m Amber, a wedding photographer with a passion for capturing moody, candid moments that tell your love story in the most authentic way. I’d love to be a part of your journey, capturing the honest, emotional moments that make your wedding unforgettable. Let’s work together to create something beautifully unique, just like your love story.

Let me tell you about Miss Amber! This girl not only took amazing photos but she completely came to my rescue! I had my wedding in August, originally I had booked a photographer right at the beginning of the year around January - my photographer I had booked ended up doing what is every brides worst fear, and cancelled on me the WEEK before my wedding!! Unbelievable right! So, as any bride would do - I scoured the internet trying to find someone available and within my budget, with little to no luck with it being such short notice. Amber on the other hand, I found her in a PNW wedding group on Facebook where my mother in law had posted about needing a photographer - and this woman, dropped what she was doing flew out to Portland Oregon from Georgia, and was with me for a FULL 12 hours on my wedding day - literally start to finish. On top of that, she is very sweet and professional and definitely down played how talented she is!! When we got our sneak peek photos back on our honeymoon I quite literally had my breath taken away! The photos are absolutely gorgeous!! I cannot express enough how amazing she was, she completely took the stress of photos of my shoulders (we all know for brides the less stress the better), she posed us, gave us pointers for how to stand, what to say to make each other giggle, funny pictures and serious ones! She ticked every box!! If you are looking for a photographer for any occasion I cannot express enough that this is your gal!! Thank you so much Amber, we will treasure these photos forever!

I got married in 2019 and after I got my wedding photos, I couldn't stop looking at them. I loved how looking back on those photos and reminiscing that day made me feel. I decided that I wanted to explore the world of photography and see if I could give that feeling to others. After my own wedding, I got the opportunity to assist some photographers with weddings to gain exposure to the photography world, and then COVID happened and everything stopped. I thought that would be the end of my journey until I stumbled across a studio looking to have an on call photographer. Now I'm working with couples to give them photos they could look back on.

Nicole took fantastic photos. I really enjoyed my time!
