STATEMENT

I believe in Marriage. I believe in the sacred bond between two humans that choose each other. I believe that marriage should and must be celebrated. I believe that your wedding day is one of the most significant days in the start of your forever journey.

As your wedding photographer I take pride in documenting each moment as it happens naturally. Your day is unique as no two weddings or people are the same. I consider it an honor and joy to photograph your day from the perspective of a guest. To give you memories to look back on for decades, to remember how your day felt.

PHOTOGRAPHY STYLE & APPROACH

Documenting your day as it happens with minimal direction

PHOTOGRAPHY STYLE AND WHAT TO EXPECT

You can expect a candid documentary approach to your wedding day. What does this mean? The short version is that Sam will photograph your day from the perspective of a guest. The goal is to photograph the day as it unfolds naturally.

However he will also offer direction and guidance when desired for you as a couple and for group photos so you don’t have to stress about where to look or what to do. The more present you can be with each other and with your loved ones on your day will lead to the best candids!

SECOND PHOTOGRAPHER

I’d suggest having a second shooter if you have more than 75-100 guests. This will give you a wider, yet more focused view of your day, including more photos of you and your loved ones.

Add a second photographer for $950 to any wedding day collection

NOTES:
If you have a second photographer they will be a professional with years of experience photographing weddings. I do not allow second photographers without experience looking to build their portfolios. I am also capable of photographing your entire day without a second so it really comes down to preference.
