Capturing real and tender moments through the lens,
In a place where the sun shines for nearly 345 days each year, light becomes a language. It speaks through sunkissed landscapes and glittering waves and through its interplay with darkness. Understanding this dialect demands a keen eye, an appreciation for subtlety, and an unwavering commitment to detail.
Amelia Lyon, a native daughter of Southern California, is fluent in light. Her love for natural light and acute attention to detail have made her an esteemed and sought-after wedding, lifestyle, and commercial photographer for over twenty years.
She wields her camera like a prism, capturing not merely the sun's rays, but the luminosity that radiates from happy subjects and the effulgence within human connections. Each click echoes a tribute to the ethereal interplay between light and love.
Amelia's affection for love knows no bounds. Clients quickly become cherished friends, extensions of an already large family.

Simultaneously a guide and an unseen observer, she tirelessly strives to immortalize those irreplaceable moments her clients long to hold forever.
