Here are some of my favorite photos from Se Jin and Jenna’s Libby Hill Park Wedding in Richmond, VA. It was a perfect fall day when these two beautiful souls decided share their vows with only their closest family around. Jenna’s brother officiated the ceremony, which was so very special! Se Jin’s parents could not attend due to travel restrictions, so they called them in FaceTime right after they said “I do”. There is something extremely lovely about intimate ceremonies, such as this one.

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.
