I edited these photos how the client wanted, not how I usually would.

I’ve always loved a bright, airy, and natural feel. But this client asked if her photos could be a little warmer. In the past, I would’ve reinforced that clients hire me for the work and style they see on my page—something most photographers stand by.

Then, while planning my own wedding, I found an amazing videographer whose work I loved, except for the editing colors. When I asked if he could edit using my preferred color style, he agreed, and it completely changed my perspective.

That experience reminded me that while style matters, what matters most is how the client feels when they see their photos. After all, it’s their story. ❤️

Hi friends — it’s been a minute!

I’ve been totally MIA from posting here, but the truth is I never stopped doing photography. Life (and the algorithm 😅) just got the best of me for a while.

It’s actually been FOUR years since my last post — so here are the 4 biggest things that happened in my life:

💍 Married the most amazing man
📸 Earned my bachelor’s in Communications from BYU
🐾 Adopted the sweetest little cat (this is from when he was adopted — he’s now a big 4-year-old!)
🌎 Finally made it back to Brazil to visit my family after so many years

Over the years, I’ve gotten so many kind messages from past clients asking if I still do photos, and the answer is yes! I’ve never stopped shooting, just stopped posting.

I’ll be sharing some of the work I never got around to posting from these past few years. So if you see an old photo of yourself pop up here… don’t be surprised 😉

I’m so excited to be back and reconnect with you all. If you’d like to book a shoot or just say hi, feel free to DM me or text me (info in bio).

xo,
Sami

Happy Valentine’s Day! Are you ready to read about the cutest love story ever?

It includes a failed kiss attempt in a Ferris wheel, he ghosting her, they getting reunited, becoming close friends, and finally after many years later the moment when he knelt in front of her and said, "I didn't believe in soul mates, but looking back on all of these memories, I am sure that we were meant to be together." 😍💕😩

I asked him to tell me about how it all started and it was hard to not write less than four paragraphs. So please head to the blog to read their very cute story. 💕samijphotography.com @ Provo, Utah
