About the Artist

Amber Lokatys is an accomplished photographer whose work is characterized by a dreamy, adolescent aesthetic. With a background in fine art photography, Amber brings a unique perspective to the art world, blending modern trends with classic studio techniques. 

Over the years, Amber has developed a distinct voice in the artistic community, exploring themes of the female gaze and coming of age. Each piece is a journey, inviting viewers to delve into the exploration of young adulthood. 

Amber’s journey into the arts began at a young age while attending Big Picture South Burlington, a high school for the visual and performing arts. After gaining experience in film photography at the University of Vermont, she traveled to the heart of San Francisco where her studies focused on fine art portraiture and classical studio lighting techniques. Upon graduating with a bachelors degree from the Academy of Art University, Amber’s work has been featured in publications such as GirlGaze, Adolescent Content, Local Wolves, Ulta Beauty, and more. 

Recently, Amber has been building her career as a commercial product photographer in the San Francisco Bay Area. Working exclusively with the LVMH owned cosmetics brand, Benefit Cosmetics, her current portfolio showcases a range of beautiful editorial photography featured on a global scale.
