hi friend..

 Welcome to my little creative corner of the world. I'm so glad you dropped by! I'm a traveling wedding photographer based in Colorado. A vintage loving, interior design obsessed mother of three living in the shadow of the Rockies.

Over the last 7 years I've worn various hats in the wedding industry but I've found my creative home behind my camera and I bring every bit of that background experience to your wedding.

When I'm not out photographing your beautiful faces and memories, I'm home, documenting the moments with my family. Most of the time you'll find me in the backyard on the trampoline with my family, trying to convince everyone it's a good time for cookies.

Native to this incredible state you can also find this family of mine spending a fair amount of our spare time exploring, all while I'm juggling a camera or two. There's an endless amount to see.

"Samantha, we truly don't believe anyone else could've captured our engagement shoot and wedding day better. You made us feel so comfortable, seen and heard through your photography. It is unreal how fat everything went and we are still processing it all. 

The photos came out AMAZING and we are trying not to let it all go to our head how good you made us look. Most importantly, you made us feel like ourselves on one of the most important days of our lives. Thank you SO much!"

"I can't say enough good things about Olivia Shane Photography. Sam herself is so genuine and cares about your story, your family and client experience as a whole, taking the time to really get to know you. From the initial consult to the delivery of the gallery she is so attentive and detail focused. She listened to everything I wanted for my shot list and eased all of my concerns. Day of she stayed on top of it and did not miss a single moment. We just received our full gallery and she truly captured every special moment. Not to mention her editing style is BEAUTIFUL! If you are looking for a photographer for your wedding, book now!!!!"

Where do I begin? Samantha at Olivia Shane Photography is the BEST!!! She’s is amazing to work with. She’s so genuine and makes you feel so comfortable while taking photos when we were so nervous. She was able to get us out of our heads and got amazing engagement and wedding photos. She’s also super willing to work with pups! At our wedding she captured so many special moments of us and our guests. After sending them out to people, everyone kept complimenting her photos. So many amazing candid and normal shots. Again, she made us feel so comfortable and since you spend a lot of time with your photographer on your wedding day it’s so important! I recommend her to anyone and everyone!

We couldn't be happier with our experience working with Sam and team! We hired her for both our engagement session and our wedding day, and she exceeded all our expectations. The number of photos we received!—far more than we found with other photographers.

Sam has an incredible eye for detail and truly captured the essence of our special moments. She made us feel comfortable and at ease, which really shines through in the photos. If you’re looking for a talented photographer who delivers outstanding value and beautiful work, look no further! Highly recommend!

"Samantha took our family photos this summer. Our toddler was hiving quite a rough morning but Samantha let him get his wiggles out and she still captured tons of smiles. She was so patient and kind. We look forward to future family photos with Samantha as she is so talented and great with children. I highly recommend working with her!

your once in a lifetime moments
