Welcome to the Amy Paton Photography Blog!

As much as I love sharing photos with you via my website portfolio here, or my Instagram and Facebook, I still find it limiting some times.

Not being able to share as many images as I want, or maybe having so many words about that particular session or event but character limits restraining me…

Well now there’s a blog to solve all my issues!

I actually really love to write. And I love to read about other peoples photography and maybe some of the behind the scenes stuff you don’t get to see.

So grab a cuppa, a biscuit, get comfy and enjoy the longer-form mix of words and images (so many images!) that I can finally share!
