great smokies.jpg — Adventure Lifestyle Photographer

Hi! I’m Amy.

Welcome to Diamond Wing Studios! I’m a Charleston-based travel and lifestyle photographer and I love sharing my adventures both near and far with my audience of avid travelers. I’ve always carried a travel journal with me whenever I go someplace new, writing and doodling about my adventures. It’s a great way to recall all the tiny details that make a trip so special. After jotting down what I did each day in a journal for years, I wanted to combine my daily musings with my favorite hobby, taking photos. This website recreates my travel journal in a digital world, where I can illustrate my favorite stories with the photos I create. I’m still journaling in the analog sense, but now I can share all those explorations with you, and inspire you to get outdoors and create meaningful experiences while adventuring!
