"All I've got is an idea."

PERFECT.  BRING ME THE SEED

You've got a launch, a feeling, a new product or offer, or the half-formed idea you woke up dreaming about at 2am.
Here's where we go from there:

01

I CREATE THE CONCEPT

I activate my powers of curiosity, find the story underneath, and turn your ideas into a visual point of view.

Narrative + storytelling
Metaphor
Creative direction
Moodboards + references
Shot concepts

02

AND PULL IT ALL TOGETHER

Then I build the visual ecosystem around it and figure out what we need to make it real.

​

Locations + environments
Sets + props
Wardrobe + styling
Lighting + atmosphere
Team + talent

03

THEN, WE BRING IT TO LIFE

I hold the plan, direct the room (or field, as it were), and leave enough space for the unexpected.

​

Lighting + atmosphere

Posing + movement

Grounded production

Experimentation + play

Plenty of “wait…what if we tried this?”

04

YOU LEAVE WITH A LIBRARY THAT TELLS A STORY

Your gallery will include the memorable hero image your web designer is begging for...and the full range of useful photos your business needs.

​

Hero + campaign imagery
Website + launch assets
Portraits + personality
Working + lifestyle scenes
Products + details
Social + email + PR

What might my shoot involve beyond photography?

Hair + makeup (HMUA)

~$250–$500+

Studio rental

~$150–$250+/hr* in TPA Bay

Assistant / lighting support

~$200–$500+

Props + materials

~$50–$500+

Models / talent

Varies by project

Specialty set pieces

Varies by concept

Travel

Quoted by project

While not every shoot needs a production budget, we can also take it further and build a set, rent a studio, bring in hair + makeup and assemble a team. When your idea calls for more, here are a few costs worth considering:

*Many studios have minimum rental periods. In addition, for Signature Shoots using a rental studio, plan for a minimum 4-hour studio booking.

Want me to travel to you OR travel together to another location!? (Epic, right!?)

Know someone else who should get in front of my camera while I’m in town? Introduce us! If they book a shoot for the same week as yours, I’ll waive your travel fee. You make the intro — no selling me on my behalf required. ;)

WE DON'T DO RUN-OF-THE-MILL BRAND PHOTOGRAPHY.

We haul beds to the beach at 6am. We leap into lakes with you and hike mountains in Guatemala at the crack of dawn and lead exceptionally successful travel brand shoots even when our front tooth falls out (...all true stories).

 

And most importantly, through every step, we reinforce the boldest version of your brand.

 

Want to wear a pink tulle robe, a gold crown and pose amongst ceramic cheetahs at a public garden? Great. Your brand shoot is YOUR hero's journey -- and when you, me, and team give it our all -- the reward is soo worth it. Between my exceptionally creative mind, previous editorial experience in NYC, and grounded presence on shoot day, you're going to love how your brand experience feels AND how it looks.

"If you're looking for a creative sounding board, fearless photographer, branding expert, and make-it-happen queen, Sami is that person!

I had so much fun seeing my wild photoshoot idea realized into beautiful portraits that were exactly what I was looking for and more."

"When I got my photos back, MY JAW WAS ON THE FLOOR. The photos captured something so authentic that I had never seen in myself before.

If you’re thinking about booking with her--do it! You’ll walk away feeling like the most authentic, beautiful version of yourself."

"I can’t wait until I have the chance to get in front of her camera again!

Working with Sami is truly an honor. I’ve never felt so comfortable in front of a camera. I can’t say enough good things about her and her work!!
