Kind Words


"Felt like a long-lost friend."


"Could not have imagined having anyone else capture our big day. From our very first coffee date, Sam felt like a long-lost friend and we had absolute faith in her to understand us and reflect that in the photos she took. We were not disappointed, as she summed up our day perfectly and managed to capture all the intimate, unnoticed moments and everything in between."

KIND WORDS


"We both felt so special."


“Sam took the time to get to know both my husband and I and really listened to the kind of images we hoped for. She was both directive (which I really wanted) but also captured the beauty of us being us using her magic eye. You can tell she really cares about what she does and we both felt so special in our interactions with Sam. I would book Sam in a heartbeat to capture our precious life moments and I am in love with the photos.”
