Sam Hurd · Washington DC
About
Sam Hurd is a wedding and portrait photographer based in Washington DC, working in New York and worldwide for creatives in love.
Approach
I have been photographing professionally since 2008 and shooting weddings since 2010, somewhere past 250 of them now, across more than twenty countries. Portraiture is where my direction comes through strongest, so that is where most of a day gets spent.
Almost everything you see here was made in the camera on the day. Prisms, flare, a lens held off the mount: none of it is added afterwards, and none of it is used for its own sake. The idea always starts with the two people in front of it, not with the trick.
Weddings are covered in full, honestly, start to finish. Wedding photography starts at $4,900, and photo and video together, shot with Nathan Mitchell, starts at $8,000. Washington DC is home. New York is a short trip. Everywhere else is a longer one.
