Branson, Missouri Photographer | About Virginia

About Virginia

branson missouri photographer
You’ll have to excuse the cell phone selfie. I prefer to be behind the camera!

Hey there, I’m Virginia, a Branson, Missouri photographer! If you found me while looking for Amy Fillinger Photography, don’t worry, you’re still in the right place! Amy Fillinger Photography has gone through some changes, which you can learn more about below. Welcome to what is now known as Branson Proposal & Family Photography!

I have always had a passion for photography and have been taking pictures for most of my life. I started shooting professionally as a second shooter several years ago and, in 2021, became the primary photographer for Amy Fillinger Photography. Since then, I have had the pleasure of working with hundreds of clients.

When I’m not in front of my computer editing photos or emailing clients, you can find me spending time with my kids, playing racquetball, listening to podcasts, painting, or enjoying the company of friends and family. Some of my favorite things include coffee, reading, kayaking, trying new activities, taking trips to explore new cities, listening to music, and working on my personal self-improvement.

I specialize in proposals and family photography in Branson, and I love every minute of each session, but proposals are my passion! As the number one proposal photographer in Branson, I find joy in capturing the pure love and happiness between two people during this special moment. It’s a privilege to be a part of such a joyous occasion and to create lasting memories for couples to cherish forever.

 

About Branson Proposal & Family Photography, formally Amy Fillinger Photography

In 2012, Amy Fillinger founded Amy Fillinger Photography, primarily shooting weddings and extended family sessions in Branson, Missouri. Her exceptional work caught the attention of Shutter Magazine, which featured her wedding and portrait photography. A few years later, she expanded her expertise to include proposals and quickly became the most prominent proposal photographer in Branson. She taught Virginia everything she knew about capturing proposals, and now she carries on the title! If you’re looking for a Branson proposal photographer, be sure to check out some of our previous work!

In 2018, Amy began building another business as a travel agent. Virginia had already been working with Amy for years, second shooting or shooting video at weddings and proposals. As Amy’s travel business grew, Virginia became more involved in the photography business, eventually becoming the primary photographer in 2021.

As of October 2022, Virginia is the proud owner of Branson Proposal & Family Photography, formerly known as Amy Fillinger Photography, while Amy continues to focus on her successful travel business.

In November 2022, Amy and Virginia decided to update the photography business’s name to avoid confusion with Amy’s travel clients. Since proposals and extended family photography sessions make up most of their shoots, they chose the name Branson Proposal & Family Photography. Despite the name change, almost nothing else has changed for their clients. Virginia now handles all client communication and takes all the photos. She is not only a Branson, Missouri photographer, but also serves Springfield and the surrounding areas of Southwest Missouri and Northwest Arkansas.

Yesterday evening, I had the privilege of getting Yesterday evening, I had the privilege of getting to photograph David’s proposal to Reba! She said yes! We had so much fun capturing these photos, and I think they turned out great! 
I did have a little scare prior to the proposal, that David’s secret would be given away by accident. As you know, I’m at Top of the Rock often for proposals, so I’m recognized by the shuttle drivers, and they all know what I do. This normally is no problem at all, because I always arrive at least 30 minutes prior to my proposal couples’ scheduled time. Well this time my couple was a little early, and David and Reba were sitting right behind the shuttle driver when I hopped into the passenger seat of one of my favorite driver’s shuttle! Luckily he mentioned a wedding that had taken place at the chapel that afternoon, so I told a little fib and said that I was there to do photos for the wedding couple, so that he wouldn’t mention a proposal! It worked. I think my presence made Reba a little suspicious, but it could have been a lot more obvious if he had started talking about my recent proposals! 🤪

He got down on one knee while Angela was taking photos of the view, and when she turned around, she was totally surprised and said yes! We had a blast taking their engagement photos on the Lost Canyon Nature Trail tour. Check out this sneak peek of some of my favorites! Congrats you guys!!

It’s humid out there, but that didn’t stop us It’s humid out there, but that didn’t stop us from having a great time at the R Family+ extended family session this morning! Happy 50th Anniversary, Sandi & Craig! ☺️ Also, it’s always interesting to see how many secrets sibling groups have to remind each other of when prompted! 🤭
