HEY THERE! I'M SAMMIE

I'm an international film photographer based in Toronto & Vancouver.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

I create intentional imagery that captures the essence of love and highlights sustainable brands.

I’ve always been fascinated by the nostalgia of old photographs, so my photography journey naturally started when I took a photography class in high school. This is where I learned to appreciate the craftsmanship behind processing, developing, scanning, and printing my own black and white film photos. Film has been a core element of my work from the start.


My work is all about finding beauty in simple everyday moments — embracing the unconventional, the quirks, the imperfections, and the emotional subtleties. My goal is to preserve your most treasured moments with a unique blend of documentary and editorial styles.


For conscious brands and creative entrepreneurs, I specialize in crafting story-driven imagery that resonates with your audience. With my background in corporate marketing, I understand the importance of intentional and compelling visuals that make your purpose-driven business stand out in a crowded marketplace.

 
 
 
 

My work has been published in The Wed, Over The Moon, Fashion Canada, White Wren, and My Tiny Atlas. Named one of the top 15 photographers in Canada by The Wed 2022.
