Hey, I'm Sam, your personal hype girl and wrangler of stray family members who need to be in the group photo. I'm based in Central Minnesota but travel across the Midwest for my couples. I specialize in photographing the beautiful, irreplaceable moments of your special day. My photos tell a story – your love story.
I love working with fun, carefree couples to capture unplanned, emotional moments — the photos you look back on and instantly relive as one of the best days of your life. My favorite backdrop to shoot is a downtown cityscape or a flowery field with tall grasses, but I won‘t hesitate to hike your family’s property or paddle across a pond to get the perfect shot. Just take a look at my gallery!
My top priorities are catering to your unique needs, figuring out the logistics of your day, and ensuring you have a stress-free experience. All of my wedding packages include consultations, wedding day timeline planning, an online album, and a print release.
Rest easy knowing that my focus is on you and your experience before and after your big day.

Sam and her team were one of the best part of my wedding. From the moment we met Sam for our engagement photo session, she immediately put us at ease. I have never felt comfortable in front of a camera, but Sam made me feel like I was meant to be there. On my wedding day, her and the second photographer made me feel absolutely beautiful. They found the perfect spots to get all of our photos, from getting ready to golden hour photos of me and my husband. I love every single one of our photos and am amazed by the fantastic work they Sam and her team did. If you are in the Midwest then I 100% recommend hiring Sam.

My husband and I hired Sam to be our wedding photographer, and when I say perfection, I mean perfection. EVERYONE that has seen my photos say how she did such a great job! From the editing, to capturing special moments, to handling gathering family the day of, and just being SO nice! There isn't a single thing I could say that could have been better. She made a point to keep me on schedule without making me feel rushed, she kept everyone smiling and everyone looking good. I did a ridiculous amount of research finding the perfect photographer, and she was immediately my #1 choice and she was everything I hoped for. Her editing style is what drew me in, and her professionalism was made me know I was selecting the right photographer for the job. I am recommending her to everyone I know!

I found Sam through Google looking for a photographer who could do just an engagement shoot, and Sam was game! She was communicative, the BEST during the shoot (my fiancé and I both said how much fun we had), and the photos are stunning. Same delivered them in the timeframe she laid out and they’re something we’ll treasure forever!
