"There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle."
Hi I'm Samantha Holland!
My passion for photography started after my son was born. I wanted to capture every smile and milestone, each small detail and fleeting moment. They don’t stay small for long…. I now have two little boys, Calvin and Harvey, that keep me busy and fulfilled.
I am a natural light, family lifestyle photographer. I love to work outdoors when the weather permits, and in studio when it doesn't. I love to capture the real moments as they happen and give soft direction. I combine traditional, documentary, and lifestyle photography to capture genuine images for you to treasure for a lifetime.
As your photographer, I will provide a generous gallery of images that can be displayed in your home as pieces of art or archived in an album to be treasured for generations. These photographs will be an investment in your family history. Images from your session often tell a story, capturing a treasured moment in time. I do not try to make you look perfect, stiff, or unnatural. I am not after that "one" shot with everyone looking at the camera and smiling. Sure, I may get some with everyone looking and smiling, but I promise if I do, your love and connection will shine through. Imagine your family as art.
"Flutters of life within me have turned into the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. With 10 tiny fingers, and 10 tiny toes. I kiss each one, and breathe in deep. I want to memorize the way you smell right in this moment."

I will work with you to freeze these moments in time so you can always look back on your tiny little one. As a mother of two, I know how fast it goes and how special it is to be able to look back at your baby as they were in the very beginning of life.
We do not choose who we love, but rather..
our souls choose for us.

At every session, even if it is a family, or newborn, I will make sure you get some photos of just you and your partner. Life gets crazy and its so important to slow down from time to time and enjoy the family you have created together. To appreciate each other. To remember how it all started when it was just the two of you. I love to capture the passion and connection between the grownups in my families!
