Amy Mikler is based in Orlando, FL and Austin, TX, and is an unapologetic pursuer of pretty pictures. She captures laughter, color, sunlight and the good life for a range of editorial, commercial and advertising clients.

She graduated with a BA in History from the University of Dallas in 1996, and worked in marketing for several years before her photography addiction dominated all her free time and expendable income. She decided she either needed to find a cheaper new hobby (these were the film days after all) or consider a photography career...she obviously chose the later. She completed her studies at the Southeast Center for Photographic Studies in May 2004, and following a few years of assisting set out on her own freelance career.
