Canyon Lake photographer.
Canyon Lake is where I send families who want wide water, limestone and a sunset that goes on for an hour. Lakeside sessions, river weddings and small ceremonies on the bluffs are all within a short drive.

Kind words.
If I could give Snaps by Sammie a million stars, I totally would! From our very first phone consult, she's been my ultimate hype queen, cheering me on with every outfit choice and wedding detail. Her communication game? Unmatched. We just got our engagement photos back and we are obsessed. If you want a photographer who's not only insanely talented but also a total blast to work with, Sammie's your girl. Don't walk, run!
Sammie is the absolute best photographer! I'd never done a photo shoot but had one done for me and my husband's engagement and wedding. The photos were breathtaking and were done so quick. Sammie's enthusiastic, fun and kind personality paired with her amazing skills make her the best in the biz. Highly recommend!
We could not have found a better photographer for our engagement photos. Sammie is so personable and makes it feel like she's not taking photos of you. It just felt like my fiancé and I were hanging out with her. She was so great with my dog as well. I highly recommend choosing Sammie as your photographer.
Sammie is an amazing photographer, with such a sweet personality and encouragement. She helps so much with poses and making sure you feel your best self. So blessed to have hired Sammie!
FAQ
Canyon Lake questions.
What time of day is best for photos at Canyon Lake?
The last 90 minutes before sunset. The light turns gold over the water and the wind usually settles. Fall is spectacular.
Do you photograph elopements at Canyon Lake?
Yes. Elopements and micro weddings have their own collection based on hours and location, and the lake and river venues are some of my favorite places to photograph vows.
Is there a travel fee to Canyon Lake?
No. Canyon Lake is inside my regular service area, so sessions and weddings there are priced the same as San Antonio.
