About Me
Quiet, cozy mornings with a (strong) cup of coffee. Breathing in deeply after a killer workout. A gentle hand caressing your hair. Long, leisurely dinner parties with loved ones. Golden hour walks at the beach. 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, always-up-for-adventuring Los Angeles native. I nearly always wear black; I tend to prefer the darker side of life, haha. And I have a huge collection of VHS tapes because they remind me of childhood & because sometimes things look better a little fuzzy.

My Background
During my good old days at USC, I focused on a few of my favorite things: English, Film, and Photography. That meant a ton of literature (especially from the Romantic & Victorian eras), a plethora of movies, and the darkroom. It was AWESOME.
After college, I began working at a snazzy post-production lab that specialized in commercial, entertainment, and fine art photography. I went on to become the producer & studio manager for a celebrity photographer, and then I ended up back in the realm of post-production via an editorial retouching house.
...Which brings us to 2012, when I launched my very own photography business. It’s been a wild journey so far, and I’m so very excited about everything to come. Let’s have some fun!
