Samm Blake is a world renowned wedding photographer with a knack for combining her editorial background with the emotion and beauty of weddings. She’s joining me to chat about her background, her path toward weddings, and what it takes to be successful in the New York wedding scene. Listen as she shares her tips and advice for how to book $20,000 weddings.

When it comes down to it, Samm has always had a love of photography. She double majored in photography and journalism, but hated the feeling of invading people’s lives when they were at their worst.

So she switched to the very willing group of people who were excited to share their joy through photography.

Her photography shows raw, real emotions with an artistry and grace that is to be admired. How does she do it? By never becoming complacent in her skills. She’s always learning, always growing, and always down for a new challenge.

We chat about everything from booking out high-end $20,000 weddings, to what gear she’s loving now, and what happened when she raised her rates. Samm was a joy to have on the show and her story is definitely a source of inspiration for me.
