Purposeful photography fueled by passion for art + connection

Whether she's scaling a mountain, watching couples make out, or raging to deep house music in the desert, Sammy’s camera tells compelling stories you won't soon forget.

Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever... It remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.

— Aaron Siskind
