- Sofia HamannHead PhotographerI'm the Head Photographer at SB Blue Photography. I am deeply passionate about capturing memories through the medium of photography. After growing up in San Diego I moved to Santa Barbara for college and have lived there ever since. In my spare time I travel, hike, surf, and sew. I hope we can work together, I'd love to get to meet you!
- Blaze HamannPhotographer/ VideographerI’m a dreamer, activist, and artist. From a young age, the images in National Geographic magazines captivated my imagination and jump-started my lifelong passions for photography & videography. I grew up swimming in Southern Oregon’s Rogue River and backpacking in the Cascade Mountain Range. After high school, I attended Westmont College in Santa Barbara, where I earned a Bachelor’s in Business and Economics. After college, I worked with the Free Burma Rangers, a conflict relief nonprofit based in Southeast Asia. During that time, I developed skills in photojournalism, as well as portrait and event photography and videography. Now, as a freelancer I shoot elopements and weddings alongside my wife, Sofia.
