Hey There Lovelies!

My name is Amy Hodges, the creator behind Hodge Podge. I'm a wife, a mother of 3, an imperfect perfectionist. I crave neatness and order but somehow appreciate the beauty in eclectic clutter. I prefer anything old and worn over shiny and new. And, I love shooting people ;)

Someone asked me once if I ever photographed anything for fun. My immediate answer: skies! I've always been drawn to texture and light, not only in my photography career but as a floral designer. One day not long after this question was posed, each piece finally seemed to fit together: Yummy, golden-hour light. Beautifully epic sky views. Texture. Connection - All of these elements marry to create cinematic, wall-worthy pieces of art, featuring your beautiful face <3

"I love how Amy puts a different spin on photography. We wouldn't trust anyone else with some of the greatest moments of our life. We have used Hodge Podge for Family Photos, Senior Pictures and Weddings and I have never been disappointed in the originality and craftsmanship of her work!"

"Amy is the most creative person I know. Her creativity leads to fun and unique photo shoots. She is patient with children and has an amazing ability to capture their personalities. She has preserved many of the milestones in my family's life, and I look forward to many more photography sessions with her!"

"We loved working with Amy [of Hodge Podge Photography]! She perfectly documented every moment and detail of our special day! I will continue to work with Amy in the future because the creativity is endless, the experience is always a blast and the finished product is completely professional and beautiful! I recommend Hodge Podge to all of my friends!"

THE LITTLE THINGS? THE LITTLE MOMENTS? THEY AREN'T LITTLE.

THE GENTLE EMBRACE, THE TWINKLE IN HER EYE, THE BEAUTIFUL CHAOS:
FROM THE TINY DETAILS TO THE GIANT MILESTONES, LET ME TELL YOUR STORY. LET ME CAPTURE THOSE AUTHENTIC MOMENTS, THE PERFECT IMPERFECTIONS. I WANT TO DRENCH THEM IN SUNSHINE AND MAGNIFY THEIR SIGNIFICANCE.


PHOTOGRAPHS
ARE TANGIBLE MEMORIES THAT TRANSPORT YOU BACK TO ALL THOSE LITTLE MOMENTS.
 THEY'RE MUSIC TO THE EYES,
POEMS WITHOUT THE WORDS,
 READ NOT WITH EYES, BUT FELT WITH THE HEART.

: TWIRL THE DRESS. SOAK UP THE SUNSET. LET THE WIND BLOW, TUMBLE IN THE WEEDS.
I'LL CAPTURE EACH FLEETING MOMENT LIKE FIREFLIES IN A JAR.
