Santa Claws Photo Event

Posted on December 18, 2011

Hi everyone!

Tomorrow is the last day for the Santa photos available at Petsmart. I volunteered last weekend to take photos for this event and wanted to spread the word. In Sierra Vista, they are donating the cost of the photos to the local humane society to support their programs. Please bring your pet tomorrow (Sunday the 18th) between 11 and 4 for the last day of photos. Donate to a great cause and also get a nice family photo. A win-win!

Please go to www.petsmart.com and scroll down to the bottom left to the Santa Claws Photo Event. Click the Event link and then it will search for a Santa Claws location near you.

Thanks for your help! Enjoy the upcoming holidays, Samantha

Here is a sweet dog from last weekend.

For best photo quality please view in medium zoom not full screen. 2011 has been another great year for Samantha H. and we are excited for all that 2012 will bring. Samantha H’s 3rd year…here we come! I am not always available when people need me since I live across the country but I am so happy for the photos I was able to take this year! I am excited for our Minnesota Summer 2012 trip after we have baby #2! Please email for more information if you are interested in a session. I look forward to seeing all of you and for the eventful year ahead.

home!!

Posted on July 27, 2011

Last year I photographed their pre-deployment ceremony and now a year later they are home from Afghanistan! I am so happy for all the reunited families, please take a minute to enjoy some of my favorite moments of the homecoming below. Click the link to see last year’s pre-deployment ceremony.

I know I haven’t posted in a little while. July has just flown by (as Summer always does) and I have been meaning to post photos for awhile now.

I love this one!

the next few photos are happy families reunited!

they are home!!

As I was leaving there was a family walking towards the parking lot. I just loved how they were walking all together with his Army gear in tow. They are all back together and their going HOME as a family. Just makes my heart melt!

Hope you enjoyed the photos,

Samantha





Jingle Bell Jog 2010

Posted on December 14, 2010

I was the event photographer for theĀ  32nd Annual Jingle Bell Jog in Downtown Fayetteville. There were 600 + runners doing 5K’s and 10K’s. I was very grateful to have my logo on their banner and t-shirt (see below). I also gave away a family photo session in their raffle and I am looking forward to meeting the family and photographing them.
Enjoy, Samantha

I loved photographing Katherine’s Yoga class last Saturday morning, it was such a different perspective for me to photograph a class instead of participate. Thank you to her and her class for letting me take these photos. Please visit Embrace Yoga Studio’s website by clicking here. Enjoy, Samantha
