A BIG SOFTIE. JUST A MARSHMALLOW OF A HUMAN
Cute dog videos? Tears.
Sappy commercials? Waterworks.
The Mandalorian? I saw the last 10 minutes and bawled for days.
I’m not ashamed of it. Not one bit. Feeling my feelings is exactly what I do for a living. I mean, it would be kinda weird if I wasn’t able to be present in the moment, right?
My whole job as your wedding photographer is witnessing the sweetest, most emotion-filled moments of your life. I’ll feel your joy alongside you, amp up the excitement when you need it, and invest all my emotion in your story as it unfolds in front of me on your day. Your day is about you, and I'll help you keep it that way.
With love, Sam

& Our Fav Parts


I had to plan and replan my wedding - 6 times. Getting married in the year of Covid upended everything over and over again. But it also illuminated the only thing that was important to us: getting married. Our wedding went from a big party to the 15 people we love most. We made every decision with intention, centering the whole day around who we are, together. Having a tiny wedding gave us time to savor all the time we spent with our closest loved ones & we wouldn’t have changed a thing.
So here is your reminder that your wedding is about your marriage, not the other way around. So however your day ends up looking, I want to give you photos that bring the same smile to your face in 20 years as the one you wear when you say “I do."
So that was our dream day, now tell me about yours!
