Chase + Blaze Creative
By Sami Jo Harberd
Unfortunately, I do LOVE:
Sending you sneak peeks within 24 hours
Including allll of your
animals in your shoot
Outfit changes.
Enough said.
Saying "I can edit that later"
and actually doing it
 
Howdy, I'm Sami Jo.
Your light-chasing friend.
 
I'm a ranch wife/rancher, mom of two, cowgirl, barrel racer, hairstylist, coffee addict, and your friend who's always asking to take your photo when I see you snapping a selfie! Based in the heart of Weiser, ID my love for cows, horses, ranching, kids, sunsets, and taking photos has collided with a passion of capturing candid moments that tell a story and portray an emotion. I first picked up a camera, to freeze moments of my kids, and it transformed into an uncanny obsession. I now have my Canon R6 Mark II permanently attached to my hand. Along with photography, I enjoy working on the ranch with my cowboy, cooking + hosting dinners, and boating/wake surfing. Not to mention, I'm a holiday enthusiast, always decorating our home in the spirit of the season. Although I love everything past those city limit signs and I wouldn't trade life in the country for anything; I can't live without my Amazon Prime and Walmart grocery delivery.
I strive to keep my sessions professional, yet light-hearted. I love to make you laugh and I'm not apposed to an inappropriate joke, or embarrassing myself to make your kids crack a smile! I also have an eye for stray hairs, dirty jeans I'll hustle to wipe off, and poses that "just look natural."
I'm so excited to see where my passion for photography takes me, and I whole-heartedly appreciate everyone who supports me along the way ❤️
