But maybe that's just because I get to basically be the spokesperson for Ouray while I'm at it. 
                                          
I mean, I don’t have to explain the magic of this place.  You’re thinking about getting married here for a reason. 

You’ve seen it, you get it.                                                                        
The amazing views, the charming vibes of the town, the way the sun hits the mountains in the morning. I still take videos of this place all the time, because I just can’t get over how beautiful it is.                                                                        
Photographing weddings lets me introduce so many amazing people to my home every year.
(Are you some of those people?)

I'm definitely living the dream as a wedding photographer...

Ouray

– Erin + Andy

Besides deciding to get married in the first place, hiring Sam as our photographer was the best decision we made in the entire wedding planning process. She captured every important moment of our big day and was so much fun to hang out with. I am devastated that I can’t hold a wedding every month purely for the fact I just want to hang out with Sam! A handful of couples seriously have considered re-doing their weddings purely so they could hire Sam.”


“The number one comment I got from the guests at my wedding was ‘Where did you find your photographer?! She is SO much fun!’

(That's us!)

My husband? A dreamboat.
Marrying him? Best decision I ever made.
The wedding? A killer party in the mountains.



Can you IMAGINE?! Being a guest at the very best party of someone’s life, celebrating their forever union, and being … grumpy?! I, for one, could not believe it. 

And now that I am asked to be a part of other people’s best day ever, to document the start of their life together—I carry that gravity into every wedding day. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not a super serious person and the energy I bring will be fun first, everything else second. 

But knowing how much that guy impacted the vibe of the day gives me the goal of being the best decision you make besides marrying each other.

Ok, maybe just ONE thing … 

I wouldn’t change a thing about my own wedding.

The Photographer? An Absolute Grump!

I love showing my age with old SNL or movie references. I am unabashedly basic about my obsession with plants. And, unfortunately for me, but fortunately for you, I snort when I laugh and dance terribly. It’s so helpful to get some natural photos of you laughing. My humiliation is your photo fuel.

I spent 5 years as a high school theater teacher. So I know how to get you to express yourself and move past any awkwardness, even if being the center of attention isn’t your thing. I’m gonna make you feel as gorgeous as you look. And my photos will prove it!

Proud Theatre Kid

I have … wait for it … 5 kids. I know, I know.  But besides a house full of love and laughter, they have made me truly un-ruffleable.

Nothing on your day stresses me out and I can problem solve faster than almost anyone I know.
