Meet Amy & Brian!
Meet Brian and Amy
Hi, I’m Amy Paddock-Stine!
I’m Amy, the lead photographer, hybrid videographer, and heart of Paper Fox Photography.
My approach to photography is deeply rooted in fine art. I graduated from Edinboro University in 2015 with a Bachelor Degree in Fine Arts, concentrating in Painting, Drawing, and Applied Arts, with a minor in Art History. Those years shaped the elements that I use to shape every image: light, color, composition, and emotion.
After college, I returned home to Seneca, Pennsylvania, where I’ve spent the last decade blending creativity and story telling through photography and marketing in the automotive industry. That experience taught me how to work quickly, adapt to changing moments, and create imagery that feels both polished and genuine.
In recent years, my focus has shifted more fully toward photographing couples, families, and weddings. In 2022, Paper Fox Photography captured its first wedding an since then, I’ve had the honor of documenting so many meaningful moments.
My style is true-to-life, timeless, and emotion-forward. I believe the best photographs feel natural and honest, with just enough guidance to let you relax and be fully present. My goal is always the same: to create images that feel like memories, not performances.
Hi, I’m Brian Stine!
I’m the second photographer and main videographer here at Paper Fox Photography.
My favorite part of photography is stepping back and capturing things that most overlook. A laugh, little details, holding hands…
Amy and I have been together for more than 16 years, and we’ve been on so many adventures together. Over the years, we’ve become a true team, from art projects to remodeling our own home, we’ve realized over this time we can accomplish just about anything together. I’m a forklift operator by day, but by night, I’m a photographer, cinematographer, musician, and creator.
I can’t wait to help photograph or video your next event.
Behind the Name: Paper Fox Photography
The name Paper Fox Photography was chosen with care and intention.
Foxes have long symbolized intuition, adaptability, and quiet wisdom. These are the traits that reflect how we approach a wedding day and every shoot: observant, thoughtful, and present, stepping in when needed and allowing moments to unfold naturally. They also hold personal meaning for both myself and Brian. Two small foxes are tucked into the design of my own engagement ring, a quiet reminder of love, partnership, and the stories we carry with us.
Our origami fox logo represents that blend of artistry and structure, carefully crafted yet full of life.
The paper in our name speaks to our love of print and legacy. While your images are delivered digitally, they are edited with printing in mind, whether that’s an 8×10 on your wall, a canvas, or an heirloom album. In a world that lives on screens, we believe photographs should be held, displayed, and passed down. My own home is filled with images from generations before me, and it’s our hope that yours will be too.
Our Love Story.
Brian and I have been together for 15 years and counting. We met on the school bus as children, and our friendship soon grew into a relationship. We were high school sweethearts, and were uncommonly lucky to be able to not just grow up together, but continue to grow together in adulthood.
While I was in college, Brian and I started to realize how much of a true team we were. I would come home on weekends with grand ideas and projects, and we would make them happen.
As the years went by, we’ve taken on project after project… From building giant frames to create my first solo art show to creating parade floats for work. In 2020, we took on our largest project, we finally got married. In the middle of COVID, I might add.
2020 was a life changing year for most of the world, and we were no exception. We became first-time homeowners, we lost people we loved, had a bit of of an identity crisis, and realized how short life really is. That year, we decided that we wanted a more fulfilled life, and we needed to start creating again.
In 2022, we started our business, and we haven’t looked back.

What We Love Most
In our spare time, we enjoy hiking, mushroom hunting, late nights by the campfire, road trips, going to concerts, time at home with our three spoiled cats, and making art together. Brian and I are so lucky to have married our best friend, and now work together.
