VAIL WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER
Hi, I'm Sam, a Colorado wedding photographer dedicated to capturing love stories across the West and beyond. I currently live in the Front Range with my wife, hound pup and son. I’ve been photographing weddings for 11 years and and bring this experience to your day with a laidback approach, focusing on genuine emotions and natural moments with minimal direction.
I offer a mix of digital and 35mm film photography creating a timeless, nostalgic feel. I blend candid shots with gentle guidance to ensure your feeling your best in front of the camera. I work with couples that value art and human connection. My goal is to provide a calming presence on your day all while serving you through intentional photography that you’ll love and look back on for ages.
I believe the most beautiful memories aren't posed, but lived, and my approach ensures you remain fully present, soaking in every laugh, tear, and joyous interaction.
Hear It From Them:
Kind words from past couples —
‘‘He’s professional, sweet, and such a genuinely humble person. His work is phenomenal and the amount of compliments we’ve received so far about our photography is overwhelming.’’
I was very picky about finding someone I felt would not only capture our day well, but also make us feel comfortable since we’ve never taken professional pictures before. I’m so incredibly grateful he was available for our date and excitedly agreed to be apart of it. If I ever need a photographer again—I would eagerly contact him!

‘‘The way Sam captures people and the world around him is creative, moving, natural and just downright beautiful.’’
He answered all of our questions and was so incredibly kind and easy to talk to. He drove all the way out to Telluride to photograph our Bridal Veil Falls Elopement. The day of our elopement was one of the greatest days of our lives and having Sam capture it was best choice we made. We felt no pressure to be anything but ourselves around Sam and he is extremely talented at what he does. We will have these photographs to remember how magical this day was for the rest of our lives.
