Sam is a Missouri native and former Northwest Missouri State football player (Go, Bearcats!). After graduating, he went on to play professionally. During his travels with the NFL, he discovered the self-capture photo studio concept—fun, easy, and packed with unreal photos. It had to exist in KC. So he made it happen. Now, it’s yours to experience.
