Lake Anna Intimate Wedding - Lake Anna, VA | Stephany + Michael

Michael and Stephany had such a lovely, summer backyard wedding on Lake Anna in Virginia. It is celebrations like theirs that make me grow so fond of intimate weddings. On their first year anniversary I will be photographing their larger wedding reception. I can’t wait! Here are some of my favorite moments!

Kind words from the couple


Hi, I'm Samuel, a fine art wedding photographer based in Chicago, IL. The day you choose to say "I do" to your partner and start a new chapter of your lives together is one of the most special moments you'll have. This day deserves to be captured artfully and authentically so it can be remembered by yourselves and your loved ones for many years. Providing this for couples brings me so much joy!

My approach to photographing couples and weddings is simple: create an experience where you and your partner can feel completely comfortable and actually enjoy yourselves! I focus on a candid style rather than a more posed or staged style. This means that I like to prompt you to interact with each other in different ways, allowing me to capture your genuine personalities and dynamic. It also takes the pressure off being in front of a camera!

If you're looking for a wedding photographer in Chicago, IL who will help you feel free to be yourselves, give you a laid-back experience, and treat you like lifelong friends, we might just be a perfect fit.
