“Everyday it seems another young photographer shoots their modelesque friends sporting fashionable clothes with an expensive camera and posts them to Tumblr insinuating that they’re the next Raya or Alex Prager. While the web is saturated with plenty of terrific amateur work, Amber Asaly stands out from this pack of countless social-networking savvy individuals. Amber built her career from hard work and genuine character, and her quality body of work stands the test of reblogs and social network hype.”
