Eco Enthusiast | Soulful Storyteller | Lover of Funky Adventures

SAMANTHA NIEMAN or “Sami” is a one-of-a-kind blend of creativity, sustainability, and a touch of wanderlust. By day, she’s a Sustainability Consultant at Hillside Solutions, where she turns “trash talk” into meaningful conversations about recycling, composting, and saving the planet one dumpster at a time. (Yes, she’s probably the only person who can make garbage glamorous.)

When she’s not saving the Earth, Samantha is Samantha Goes There—a soul photographer with 15 years behind the lens. From intimate elopements on mountaintops to healing retreats in lush jungles, she captures moments so raw and real they practically breathe. Think soulful storytelling meets passport stamps.

But that’s not all—this gal has range! (Not me writing this about me lol) Samantha loves bringing people together, whether it’s for a deep chat over monthly spiritually guided work shops or teaching photographers how to guide couples into zen before their big day. Her passions for mindfulness, connection, and fun are as contagious as her laugh.

In her spare time, you’ll find her crushing it at CrossFit, organizing fun socials clubs, or marinating in a sound bath. She’s also busy plotting eco-friendly revolutions and creating dreamy visions of the future.

Samantha is living proof that you can do what you love, make an impact, and have a blast doing it. Wherever she goes, she’s sure to bring a little sparkle and a lot of heart.
