wedding CLIENT EXPERIENCE
“BEST DECISION WE MADE”
We couldn’t asked for a better photographer! Sam takes something that is so important and what is most stressful for a lot of people and makes it the most pleasurable experience.
Sam takes photography to another level and I honestly cannot say enough good things about our experience with him. Sam will take the time to make sure you and everyone along feels comfortable and he wants to make sure everyone is having a good time and also makes sure that you get what you are looking for. He is not afraid to literally get down & dirty to make sure he gets that perfect shot. I cannot express that enough, best decision we made ever made was having sam photograph our wedding!
WHY I’M A WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER
On a random Wednesday afternoon, one of my army brother pass away unexpectedly. And although we were very close, I didn’t have any photos of those good moments. We were busy living life in the moment and never pause to snap a photo. As time goes by, I felt like I’m losing more and more of our memories..
(shit… that got dark really fast 😅)
I don’t want anyone to experience that feeling of not having real photographs to look back on. So after years of mastering landscape & travel photography, I pivoted to weddings and everything just clicked.
My purpose is to give people tangible pieces of memories while allowing them to live in the moment so when they look back, they’ll remember all the good moments long after they’re gone
I might not be the best wedding photographer but if you are vibing with me so far, we might be a good match! Reach out and lets chat
