north carolina wedding

Sitting in photography class my senior year of high school had me feeling more in my element than I ever felt before.  Who would have known that the fateful day of choosing photography as an elective back in 2008 would lead me to where I am today. 

I’m Sam, the lead photographer and co-owner of Northern Red Photography.  My husband (the other half of Northern Red and the brains behind the business aspects of the company) and I established Northern Red Photography, LLC in 2015.  My pursuit for my love of photography had always been more of a hobby, a hobby that had been thoroughly refined during my college years where I minored in photography at the University of Rhode Island, learning the basics and perfecting the craft.  While my husband was serving in the US Army and were living in Fort Campbell Kentucky, a whopping 1075 miles away from our entire family, we welcomed our first child into the world.  It was this moment that we realized just how important capturing these moments of our first born’s life were not only for our memories but to share with our family back home.  I knew I was meant to capture these moments not only for my family but I wanted to be able to capture these moments for other families as well.
