My fiancé and I had the most amazing experience working with Sammy! She was able to photograph our civil ceremony last minute after another photographer ghosted us.
She went above and beyond to capture our special day, and the photos are more beautiful than I could have imagined. You can tell she is an absolute master of her craft - she knew all the best (and secret!) angles at SF City Hall to get the most gorgeous shots. She was also super kind, cool, and funny, which made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She gave us excellent direction so our photos look natural & romantic yet cinematic all at once.
Our only regret is that we didn’t find her sooner so she could photograph our formal wedding day. We will definitely be booking her again for future photoshoots. Do yourself a favor and book Sammy today!!

"Our family can’t stop raving about Sammy! Saying, ‘Whatever you paid that photographer was worth it!’ Probably the best wedding pics I’ve ever seen anywhere!!
Seriously, cannot thank Sammy enough! She was so sweet, easy to work with, and made us feel so comfortable. We’ll treasure these photos forever."

"Sammy is incredible! She’s a true artist who takes her craft very seriously, which is reflected in the quality of her work. At the same time, she’s very cool and fun to be around, and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera!
She even scouted out photo locations the day before our wedding to get an idea of what the lighting would be like, so on the day she was super prepared and we were able to just follow along and trust her without worrying about anything. We loved working with Sammy and would highly recommend her!"

always remember
It’s not your responsibility at all to keep these dates straight. I’ve got everything under control. I just wanted to keep you in the loop right away so you know how much I’m already thinking about you and planning for your big day.
I cannot wait and am so excited.
