Welcome! And thank you for visiting my website; I hope you enjoy the images and feel a connection to what you see!

I'm Sami, I was born and raised in the suburbs of Chicago. I've traveled far and close, but I keep coming back to Chicago. I love this city and everything in it. I love photographing every part of the city and suburbs, whether you want to go down by the river walk off Michigan Ave, your favorite neighborhood bar, or your new home you just bought; I want to go to a location that you love or has special meaning to you. 

I've been a professional wedding and family photographer since 2011. The summer after I graduated from Southern Illinois University in 2010.

Hundreds of weddings later, I still get excited for the bride to get in to her wedding dress. I love capturing the emotions of the bride seeing her dad for the first time, or one of my favorites, when the bride is walking down the aisle to her soon-to-be-husband.

I'm going to be just as excited for you to marry your best friend as your family and friends are! I can't wait to hear your story and what makes you smile!
