hi, hey, hello
my name is sami
I am a natural light, love + lifestyle photographer. My dream and goal is to tell your story as real and honestly as possible.
First off, I am so glad you’re here! I have loved photography for as long as I can remember. In all of middle and high school I had bulletin boards with pictures lining my walls and was the friend that wanted to document everything; always. Being a photographer was never my end goal for a career but now I couldn’t imagine doing anything else. I was gifted my first “nice camera” by my dad in the middle of my senior year of high school after taking two semesters of photography. That camera went from collecting a lot of dust in my garage to being what I learned to photograph a wedding day with. I fully believe I am in this industry because the Lord placed me here and instilled a passion for documenting raw and real moments while getting to deeply connect with people throughout the process.
My goal as a photographer is to tell your story as honestly as I can and to capture moments that can pass by so quickly.
You can make a second in time stand still forever and that is so, so cool to me. I want everything about your wedding day, engagement session, birth, etc., to be fully, 100% you. I’m pretty non-traditional and will always advocate for what you truly want rather than conforming to traditions that feel forced and stale. At the end of the day I want to be your friend.
+ I love Jesus, community + spotify playlists.
+ I will absolutely pet every dog I see.
+ I only drink my coffee black + cold brew over iced coffee everyday.
+ Big fan of Prairie sour beers + I would eat Hall’s pizza for every meal.
+ Also big fan of country music + two stepping.
+ I am a pretty hard Enneagram 4 but also am extroverted to a fault.
