84 Quiet, cozy mornings with a damn fine cup of coffee. Breathing in deeply after a killer workout. A gentle hand caressing your hair. Long, leisurely dinner parties with loved ones. That joy, that warmth, that comfort: those are some of my favorite things. Photography is not just something that is seen; it is also something that is experienced. I look to those deep connections, those ephemeral moments, that endless love. That is where the spirit of my work lives. Hi! I'm Sam. I'm a nature-loving, taco-craving, sunset-chasing Los Angeles native. And I have a huge collection of VHS tapes because they remind me of childhood and because sometimes things look better a little fuzzy.

Sam is great! Super talented photographer, easy to work with, very reactive with email responses and punctual. If your looking for a LA based photographer for any type of event look no further. I highly recommend.
Sam was our photographer for our wedding. She is incredibly talented and wonderful with our guests. She gave immaculate direction for posing (which we needed). All of our family and friends are still raving about Sam. The photos are jaw-dropping. I am so grateful and elated that Sam was our photographer.
I cannot stress how amazing Samantha is and wish I could give her more than 5 stars! Not only is she one of the most talented photographers I have met (and my husband was a DP), but she also has such incredible energy. She is calm, professional, and so nice and smart! She took so much time to walk us through the process and made us feel heard when discussing our vision, which she brought to life beautifully. She made everyone at the wedding feel completely at ease and captured the heart of the event and attendees. She also was able to get everyone in our wedding party shot quickly and efficiently. I have been to so many weddings where the bride and groom are not able to enjoy their party as much because they are bogged down and Sam was able to get these amazing shots with our most important people, and still get us out during the cocktail hour. She was so nice to guests while getting them to do what we needed for the photos - which is not an easy feat. She also went the extra mile to help us make sure that everything looked great - like swept leaves on the patio to get a better shot for our first look! She made everything so easy and our wedding stress free. I would hire her again in a heartbeat and hoping to do so for anniversary/family shoots.
My husband and I hired Sam as our wedding/engagement photographer and she was absolutely amazing! Not only were her photographs gorgeous, timeless and classy, she delivered them quickly and was such a joy to work with. Her personality kept us calm and peaceful the entire day and we felt so fortunate to have her by our side. Sam is incredibly organized, creative and is very personable. She beautifully captured all of our precious moments and all of our wedding guests loved her as well. Sam goes above and beyond. We highly recommend her. You won't be disappointed! :)
Sam is the best! When I told her I wanted to do a desert shot for my engagement shoot, she was able to immediately suggest a location. And the shots came out super cool! Fast forward to our wedding day, Sam captured every moment of our wedding! This was critical for us, as we opted out of getting a videographer, but we really didn't need it! When I saw our photo gallery, I was reliving the wedding day each step of the way. Sam's super professional, organize, creative, and easy to work with. I will book her for my maternity shoot!
