Hey friends! That’s us over there. We’re two creatives that fell in love, got married, and are now working together to create a magical photography experience for other couples. The first thing you should know is that building a relationship with you is ridiculously important to us. You deserve photographers who get to know the real you and that’s exactly what we do. We want to be so much more than just wedding photographers to you, so don’t be surprised when we help bustle your dress, pin on boutonnieres and refill your drink when it’s low.
Our photography style is intimate and candid. We love the perfectly imperfect moments and capturing those moments you want to relive forever. Your story is yours and we want your photos to reflect that! So while we will definitely make sure you feel comfortable in front of our cameras, we’re also going to make sure you have the best time too! We focus on your interaction and capture all of the genuine, quirky, beautiful, hilarious, loud, intimate moments. The way you laugh in each other’s faces, the tickles and booty grabs, your favorite way to be held, the post-kiss smiles, and how you squeeze each other like you never want to let go when you hug. The little things, the big moments and everything in between. You’ve built this incredible relationship and we are so ready to help you show that off.
It has been so amazing to witness the connection between our couples and their families, the vulnerability they’ve shown us, and forming so many new friendships. Our souls have forever been changed and we wouldn’t have it any other way.
Hey there, we're Sam & Nick!

our story
this is
We met over 10 years ago and have spent nearly every day of the last 10 years together. As much as we love adventure and traveling, we also love our downtime. We have 3 fur babes that get most of our attention, and they seriously might as well be our kids. We have The Office, Friends, and Seinfeld on repeat, but you can often find us shamelessly watching all the MTV reality shows. Somehow we have over 125 Pandora radio stations that we constantly listen to, and whether its 90s board or console games, we play at least 3 a week. Oh, and don't think we forgot, we saved the best for last -- food! We're actually vegan and LOVE to cook! From tacos to pasta, pizza, and Full Thanksgiving spreads, we love creating killer vegan versions of our family and friends' favorite foods. And don't worry, we promise we won't judge the full BBQ buffet at your wedding!

Samantha and Nick are extremely personable. They did an outstanding job and exceeded my highest expectations for capturing the moment that I proposed to my girlfriend. They drove 2.5 hours to the site, got there an hour ahead of time to scope it out, and hid so that we could keep the surprise until the last moment. The photos that they took were outstanding and are very professional. Most importantly, they are good people. Hire them - you will be happy that you did.

I can’t say enough good things about Sam and Nick of Anorda Photography. I am a bit of a high maintenance customer and I picked the perfect professionals for my proposal. Sam is very communicative and quick to respond. She’s great at calming your nerves and fears and is super personable. You can tell she cares about you as a person when you speak with her and she makes your experience nothing but fun. They take some seriously good photos and have an eye for the best light/scenery. Hire Anorda with confidence, you’ll have a great experience!

Sam and Nick exceeded our expectations! They showed up on time, delivered hundreds of pictures, and even created a beautiful 8 minute video from our wedding day. My husband and I cry every time we watch the video and it is something we will cherish forever. They were both super easy to work with and definitely bring a laid-back energy to their style and approach (which is needed for high anxiety brides!). We definitely plan to use Sam and Nick again for any major life event photo shoots needed and recommend them 1,000%. THANK YOU ANORDA!

Let me brag on our photographers. They did our engagement and wedding photos and neither day was what you’d consider ideal weather. For the engagement photos it rained and for our wedding, the fog was so thick that by the end of our time, we could barely see a few feet in front of us. Sam and Nick just rolled with it and were so good at making me and Andrew feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. To sum up: they are a great team who genuinely care about producing the product their client wants, they are very nice but also professional. You won't be disappointed!

I don’t know how I’ll narrow it down to which pictures we display, and what a wonderful problem to have! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. These memories will last a lifetime. My 2 year old still talks about how much fun this day was.

Every aspect of my experience with Anorda Photography was perfect. They are very punctual and professional with communication, and are very personable during your photoshoot. The images were excellent. They allow you to choose areas you would like to take pictures and poses of your choice. If you do not have a preference, they suggest great spots where you can capture the best lighting as well poses to capture emotion, resulting in the best pictures. They don't go overboard with their photo editing software. Your pictures will look very natural if that is the look you are looking for.
