Telling your wedding story as it naturally unfolds , seeking the real over the performative so you can stay fully present in the memories you’re making.

My approach to wedding photography blends documentary storytelling with refined editorial composition, creating timeless images that feel natural, emotional, and true to your wedding day. Rather than forcing moments, I focus on genuine connection, beautiful light, and the honest rhythm of your celebration.

Documenting your wedding day with an honest, artful approach

"Booking Samantha as my wedding photographer was one of my, if not, my top priority when it came to my wedding vendors. Through a personal referral I learned about Sam and knew I needed her to be my wedding photographer - and I’m so glad we were able to work together. Samantha provided a professional and calm experience, yet guided myself and my husband on our wedding day and captured our day beautifully. Overall, the stars aligned so I could work with Samantha and I’m grateful they did I treasure our photos. If you are considering Samantha as your photographer I couldn’t recommend her enough!!" - Jessica + Brooks

"Samantha photographed our engagement and wedding day and we are so impressed with the way she captured our love. She has a kind and down-to-earth demeanor and photographed such that you can feel the emotions of the day through our photos. We are so grateful for her!" - Jamie + Zach

love notes

yours truly, Samantha

Some images stop you in your tracks. Some images invite you to linger and take in the details. My approach includes a mix that tells a visual story of your love and your celebration. Your love will be documented with an editorial eye that preserves the meaning behind the moments.

Images for your legacy.

I photograph a limited number of weddings each year so every couple receives the time, care, and preparation their celebration deserves. From the southern coast to destinations abroad, my work is shaped by beautiful settings, strong composition, and the people at the center of it all.
