About

Hi! My name is Amy Trucks. I was born and raised in a very small town called Manistee, Michigan in the United States. I currently live in Dublin, Ireland with my husband and three rambunctious children. I credit my creativity and love of arts with the wonderful supportive community and teachers that I had growing up in my small town.

 

I discovered my love for photography while living in New York City. I started with a simple phone camera taking photos of people on the streets and sharing on Instagram. From those images, I was incredibly lucky to be asked to photograph fashion shows, concerts, sports and other events. I found that I loved photography so much that I invested in camera gear and started educating myself on the art of photography. Photography is not a skill that can be perfected overnight. I find that I am always learning, adapting and changing, which is why it interests me so much and keeps me forever on my toes. 

 

While living in New York City, I met a charming Irishman whom I now call my husband. I made the move to Dublin Ireland in 2015. I took a short hiatus from professional photography to have children but in 2020 I decided to leap back in with both feet. 

 

I adore getting to know new people while photographing them and I find that relationships that are built in the space of only an hour or two can be lifelong and memorable. 

​

My photos have been featured online at fashionrockslive.com, luckymag.com, deadline.com,  downtownmagazinenyc.com and in print in Life Sunday Independent, The Irish Times and SOHO Fashion Magazine. I am an award-winning photographer through the Irish Professional Photographers and Videographers Association in multiple categories.
