Sam is amazing. He really pays attentions to details, he’s very professional, dependable and I value his work. When we first talked over the phone I felt overwhelmed with wedding planning and heightened emotions and Sam knew the struggles I was going through, he reassured me that my ideas would be workable. Sam is a great photographer and everyone should hire him for their photo events!

Details: Wedding • 25 - 49 guests • Indoors • Flash drive

It was a delight to work with Sam as our elopement photographer. He was very easy to work with in planning our photography needs. He was able to structure a package for us that met both our budget and vision for capturing our marriage ceremony. He responded quickly to questions. He arrived on time, and was very skilled and professional. And, most importantly, he over-delivered above our expectations. Our photos were beautiful, just as we had imagined. I recommend him if you're looking to capture the special moments of your life.

We had an amazing experience with Sam! His patience was truly commendable, and the clicks were done with such natural ease. Plus, the edited photos were incredibly high quality. Sam is an exceptional choice for family photography sessions or any other photographic endeavor you may be considering.

Had a wonderful experience with photography for our private wedding! We were given ample photos to choose from, and we never felt rushed. He was clear with instructions, pricing and what to expect, and delivered on all fronts. The whole experience was professional, warm and comfortable. Would highly recommend! Our photos turned out beautiful.

I booked Sam for two separate sessions within days of each other, he was punctual and delivered quality pictures. He took my vision and requests into consideration but, as a photographer, added the finishing touch which made my pictures come out that much better. My daughter’s sweet 16 pics came out amazing and I’d book or refer him in the future.

Details: Birthday party • 50 - 99 guests • Outdoors • Physical proofs or prints
