(sam I am)'s photostream
|
I love photography, knitting and cooking.
I have one crazy kid and an even crazier dog.
I am a homeschooling mom.
I own my own landscape design business, which is patiently waiting for the economy to recover.........
I love taking pictures, just wish I had more time to do it. I'm always seeking inspiration and improvement. Flickr has been such a wonderful find and inspiration for me. I have made so many wonderful friends, and have been blown away by the talent that I've seen. I get just as excited looking at everyone else's pictures as I do when someone looks at mine.

"Sam is such a creative photographer! I always look forward to seeing her work, especially her signature shallow dof food shots. The thing I love most about her pictures is how she brings beauty to things you wouldn't consider beautiful (snakes, spiders, pigs, oh my!). Thanks Sam, for sharing your visions and humor with us! I consider myself lucky to have found a flickr friend like you!"

"Sam I am has one of the most inspiring photostreams on flickr. sam is the *master* of taking the most simple things and making them profound. Sam's an expert at shallow dof as well and, unlike others, uses it carefully, thoughtfully, and appropriately. Visiting her stream is like a good sip of tea or coffee; a visit here helps to slow down time, taking a moment out to appreciate the little things. She is also a kind contact, and took time to answer a few questions I had very thoughtfully. I continue to look forward to her photos for inspiration and moments of awe!"

Sam is one of my nearest and dearest contacts and friends here on Flickr.
I love her images and respect her skills as a photographer and artist. She has an eye for composition and design that makes me say ooohhhh a lot ! She inspires me and drives me to better.
I could sit and look through her stream and find something new to love every day!
Thanks Sam for sharing your work with the world and I look forward to the day we can sit , chat , click and talk about the 80 degree weather under a palm tree!"14th February, 2010

"One day while browsing around Flickr I stumbled upon a photo of Sam's that was so intriguing I had to see more. Sam had taken an extremely low perspective road shot and commented about needing a "bokeh man" in the shot! Her humor and amazing talent drew me in and I couldn't wait to see more. Her passion for photography and creativity inspire me. I love her nature shots and in particular her love of leaves. Henry David Thoreau once said, "Nature will bear the closest inspection. She invites us to lay our eye level with her smallest leaf, and take an insect view of its plain." Sam has taken nature up on it's promise to not disappoint. I am proud to call her a flickr "friend" and I can't wait each day to see the beauty she shares with us. If you haven't already done so....head to her stream and drink in the beauty!"
