Full Service Wedding Photography

An editorial approach to the photographs that deserve intention, paired with a documentary eye for everything that naturally unfolds around them.

I firmly believe that your wedding deserves photographs that feel as considered as the celebration itself. I produce photographs that feel elevated, intentional and deeply personal. From the portraits you want to frame to the fleeting moments you never saw coming, my signature approach combines the artistry and direction of editorial photography with the honesty and intention of true storytelling, giving you space for both: time to create the photographs you've envisioned and the freedom to experience your wedding just as it unfolds.

Get in touch

There's a great chance that you care about the details that make your wedding feel like yours. The architecture, the dress, the design, the tablescape, the way the light moves through the room. But just as importantly, you care about the people who fill those spaces and the moments that happen naturally around them.

Maybe it's your grandmother crying during the ceremony, the five quiet minutes you steal away together before dinner, or the people who traveled across the world to celebrate with you. Whatever it is - whatever your story looks like - those are the pieces of the day that you can't necessarily plan for, but you'll want to remember just as much as everything you thoughtfully chose.

I don't think you should have to choose between beautiful, artfully considered photographs and images that genuinely feel like your wedding. You deserve both.

"Ugh, where to begin. What stood out most about working with Sam was how thoughtfully she approached every part. Before the wedding, she asked questions no one else had, about the atmosphere we wanted guests to feel, the timeline, just things that actually impact the experience which we thought was so nice. We knew we had chosen the perfect person to document our wedding before the day was over. & don’t even get me started on the actual photos. I will probably never recover."

"Samantha has a rare ability to notice quiet, meaningful moments most people would miss. At one point during cocktail hour, she pulled us aside for portraits when the light shifted and those ended up being some of our favorite pictures from our gallery. She was calm/ intentional/ completely in sync all day. Our photos feel refined and timeless, which is everything what we hoped for!"
