About Ampersand Photography

Ampersand Photography

I started Ampersand Photography in 2022, but I’m not new to the scene. I’ve been in the wedding photography industry for 8 years as a second shooter and offering limited packages on my own. I also offer family portraits, head shots, milestone sessions, boudoir, senior portraits and more. I love audiobooks, potatoes in all forms (including raw), playing games, peanut butter, ice cream, dogs, and truly just being around people. I love listening to others' stories. I love grandparents. I love people, genuinely.

My clients often say that I provide structure to make their day so much easier than they anticipated, and that they feel naturally comfortable around me. I believe communication is key to your day running smoothly, as well as being available to answer your questions! I don't believe in strangers, just friends I haven't met yet. I love people for who they are, and celebrate the human experience across all of our spectrums.

  • The only photographer you need

    From the initial consult, to the delivery of our Gallery, Sam was the superhero needed to keep things going smoothly. If you’re looking for a photographer who has skills in getting to know who you really are, making sure your personality is as much in the photos as you are, going above and beyond to help things go smoothly, take care of things you didn’t even know needed to be done, and show up in whatever way helps you while getting the job done: you’ve found her. I could not possibly say enough that would capture how great of an experience it was to work with Sam; the professionalism, care, and attention to details are as equally prevalent in her practice as her positive attitude, genuine helpfulness, and kind spirit. That is to say, Sam is everything you could want in a photographer, and everything you need to make sure it’s done with the utmost precision and skill.

    I’ve spent years admiring Sam’s work and finally had the joy of using her this year. She helped bring my creative vision to life for my engagement pictures and will be doing my wedding photography too. She’s so kind, a great communicator and knows how to turn your ideas into realities. I would recommend her to anyone.

    Sam is wonderful. She is easy to work with, quick to respond, and listens to what you want. Her rates are also reasonable. My husband and I worked with her for the first time for our engagement session and she was a great fit. We were able to relax and have fun. She photographed our wedding (and helped me plan the timeline and any other questions I had regarding the wedding) Her work is beautiful! We can’t rate her highly enough.

  • Like working with an old friend

    Sam is the most amazing and joyful person to work with. She really listens and thinks of all the things we wouldn’t have even considered. So far she has knocked our engagement photos way out of the park, and we are so very excited for the creative energy that she’ll bring to the main event!
