About Me

Hi, I’m Amy — the owner and creative mind behind ARB Art & Photography and ARB Studios.

Photography has always been more than just a passion for me; it’s a way to tell stories, capture emotions, and preserve memories that last a lifetime. What started as a love for taking pictures soon grew into something much bigger — a mission to help people see themselves, their moments, and their visions in a whole new light.

I’m an award-winning and published photographer, something I’m incredibly proud of, as it reflects the dedication, creativity, and passion I put into every shoot and project I take on.

I work across many styles of photography, from portraits, weddings, and events to landscapes, wildlife, products, bands, and pets. Each project is unique, and that’s what excites me most — no two sessions are ever the same. I love the challenge of adapting my creativity to fit every client’s personality, story, or brand.

Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work with local businesses, councils, musicians, and creatives on a wide variety of projects. Music photography has become a huge passion of mine, and I’ve worked with many bands to capture the energy, atmosphere, and emotion of live performances. One of the highlights of my journey so far was having the opportunity to photograph a band at Planet Rock’s Rockstock Festival in November 2025 — an experience that strengthened my love for live music photography even more.

One of my favorite parts of being a photographer is the collaboration. I enjoy getting to know the people I work with, understanding their ideas, and then turning those visions into beautiful, timeless images. Whether it’s recreating a story, capturing the energy of live music, or highlighting the bond between a family and their pets, my goal is always to create photographs that feel authentic and unforgettable.

Through ARB Studios, I’ve also built a creative hub for other artists, musicians, and professionals in Stoke-on-Trent. The studio has proudly hosted five music videos, regularly holds monthly networking events, and creates themed experiences designed to bring families and the local community together. It’s more than just a studio — it’s a welcoming creative space where collaboration thrives, friendships are built, and stories come to life. Over time, ARB Studios has developed a friendly reputation and become like a family within the community, supporting creatives, businesses, musicians, and families alike.

At the heart of everything I do is a simple belief: photography should be a reflection of you — natural, powerful, and full of life. I’d love to help you capture your story next.
