scroll down for the magic
The little years are loud, messy and gone faster than you expect. I photograph families in a way that feels natural and relaxed. No pressure for perfect behavior, just your kids being themselves and you getting to be present with them. My goal is simple: to give you photos that bring you right back to this season of life.

Meet
Sam
When I became a mom 12 years ago, I realized that my children will only be this age today, but their smiles can last forever. As I documented our lives through photography, those moments turned into memories that I will cherish forever. I want to be able to give this priceless gift to each of my clients.
I'm a true born and raised Cochrane, Alberta girl. My favorite place to shoot is the Rocky Mountains - where your family, the landscape, and the moment come together in a way that just feels like magic.
Boy mom of four who knows how wild and beautiful family life really is.
client praise
Our photos speak for themselves - Sam knocked it out of the park!
While making us feel completely at ease, she took world class photographs and we couldn’t be happier. We get comments on both our engagement and wedding photos on the regular and both of us end up raving about Sam and our experience.

Sam was our photographer at our wedding last month and she is AH-mazing.
She came totally prepared for the day! I still can't believe how many photos she took and she even gave us a beautiful memory stick to view them. She has a great attitude and was super easy to work with. You won't regret booking her for any event you have!

Timeless Memories that are a genuine reflection of you
Creating lasting moments through my lens is something that has evolved from a hobby, to a true passion over the years! I shoot every single session based off the unique personalities in front of my camera, rather than "my style" or what I think the finished result should look like. I want you to be able to proudly hang your session photos on the wall of your home as a true representation of you, rather than just a "perfect shot".
