Quick response, excellent communication and quality work! We hired Sam to respond to a press opportunity that came available with very short notice. His accessibility and updates throughout the process gave us peace of mind that he understood our goals and would capture the event as we intended. Thank you Sam - pleasure working with you.

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Sam and will *definitely* work with him again. He was calm, knowledgeable, patient, and seemed to genuinely enjoy his craft. The end result after spending 45 minutes in his studio was exactly what I was looking for. He was meticulous - fussy almost - about the lighting as well as the angles, which I greatly appreciated - a sign of a real artist. There are many 'photographers' out there but few who are really good - Sam is certainly one of them and a rare breed. I highly recommend him.

Too quick to make conclusion without asking reasons. A pity.

Sam is attentive and positive, which helped me out a lot. He kept up through multiple re-schedules, was very engaging in the process and has been helpful in selecting images. I'd recommend him.
