Starting as a political news and celebrity portrait photographer in DC, Sam was instantly drawn to wedding photography as a space to promote more inventive ideas. Sam’s focus is on photographic techniques that are deceptively simple but have the potential to transform difficult or uninspiring shooting environments into one-of-a-kind opportunities for every photo made.
I photographed Brian and Anastasia’s elopement 7 years ago, and took one of my all time favorite photos of them:
Well, Brian reached out to surprise Anastasia for their anniversary with another session in San Diego… and I’m so grateful that he did! It was incredible to wander around such a beautiful place and catch up with them after all these years <3
Photographers… you can find deconstructions of images like these and more over on my patreon feed.
Everything edited w/ my profile.
