IT'S ME, HI!

Hey! Sammy Steckel here!

Locally known as your hype woman - I'm here to photograph authentic moments of you and your family. Combining the best lighting times, a perfect wardrobe color scheme and those gorgeous photo spots! This is an elevated photo experience you will want to book every year. Plus, we are going to have so much fun together! When I'm not on a creative adventure, I love spending time with my bestie, Matt, serving the local church and spoiling my dog, Minnie.

Fun Facts

I’m a small-town Midwest girl who loves Jesus, my best friend (and husband) Matt, and iced coffee. I’m a bit of a creative triple threat - a writer, designer, and photographer - using every bit of it to create with purpose. We love serving at church, goofing around with our pup and we are expecting this December!

Why I do this

Because getting your pictures taken should not be painful, but pleasant! You'll feel like I'm your cheerleader every step of the way; fixing your hair, hyping up those baby smiles and making everyone feel comfy cozy in their own skin. Each snap of the camera feels like piecing together a one of a kind picture present for your eyes to enjoy.

How I work

We'll schedule a time during sunrise or sunset to ensure you get the best lighting, reduce the risk of squinty-eyes, and avoid the hot Floridian sun! Options from local hidden gems to beautiful unique spots! Afterwards, you'll receive an edited gallery with 20+ beautiful images within 48 hours. If I were you, I'd want to save and share those photos ASAP too!
