Best photographer ever!

Sam and DJ were the best!! They were extremely professional but also a blast to work with. They kept everyone smiling all day long! Not to mention Sam went above and beyond and delivered our whole gallery in three days! I’m in love with all of our pictures. :) I would highly recommend them!

Amazing Wedding Photographer!

Sam was incredible! Throughout the process, he was such a delight to work with. Eighty Eight Photo was a recommended photographer by our venue and after looking at their work, we wanted to work with them. Weddings can be stressful and it can be less stressful when you have the help of experienced vendors. Eighty Eight Photo are professionals who make that day seamless.

When my family wanted to have a personalized family photography session, Sam said he could help. We were also really happy with how those photos turned out!

Overall, we are so happy with how our photos turned out and are very happy we went with Eighty Eight Photo for the big day!

Excellent choice

I’m pretty picky when it comes to professional photography. I notice all the details—the lighting, framing, creativity, making sure nothing in the background gets awkwardly cropped out, image quality... honestly, I pay attention to every little thing. I actually spent a few days reviewing portfolios to pick a photographer for my civil wedding. The moment I saw Eighty Eight’s page, I knew I could stop looking. I had found exactly what I was searching for!
On the day of the ceremony, they were super punctual and professional. Sam truly knew his stuff! When I got the photos back (in record time, by the way!!!), it was hard to believe all those shots came from just one person. Seriously! My husband and I were like, 'How on earth did he capture so many angles and details??' He was so discreet throughout the whole ceremony that we barely even noticed him, but when we saw the photos, it literally felt like he was in multiple places at once.
I’m honestly so happy we chose Eighty Eight Photo to capture such an important moment. I’d recommend them in a heartbeat!

Eighty Eight Surpassed Our (High) Expectations

We used Eighty Eight Photography for our wedding and could not be happier. From our very first meeting, Sam was professional, fun, and kind. We were intrigued by the samples of their work and they delivered beyond our expectations. Sam and DJ did the photography for our wedding ceremony and reception and were both so much fun and very professional and talented. They made us and our bridal party feel relaxed and to help us enjoy the day. We didn't realize how the demeanor and personality of the photographers is almost as, if not as, important as their skillset and talent. Sam and DJ had great ideas as to where to take photos and how to pose us. The edits are awesome. We are thoroughly happy with the quality and quantity of photos that we received. We got our finished/edited photos from Sam much more quickly that we expected. We whole-heartedly recommend Eighty Eight Photography.

Engagement/Wedding Photography

If you’re looking for a photographer for your engagement or wedding, I cannot recommend Sam enough! He photographed both our engagement session and our wedding, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

From the very beginning, Sam was incredibly talented, professional, and so easy to work with. He made us feel like we’d known him forever, so nothing ever felt awkward. We spent both sessions laughing, talking, and genuinely having a great time, which made for the most natural and beautiful photos.

On our wedding day, Sam worked so hard to capture every special moment, and we were absolutely blown away by how quickly we received our gallery. I expected to wait his time period he had told us at the beginning of this process so getting our photos back so fast was such an amazing surprise! We are beyond happy with every single picture. We can’t stop looking at them!

Thank you, Sam, for everything you did to make our wedding day so special and for giving us memories we’ll cherish forever!

Best wedding photography!!

Sam and his team were absolutely incredible from start to finish. They took the time to truly listen to our vision and brought it to life in ways that exceeded anything we could have imagined. Throughout the entire process, they made us feel comfortable, guided us every step of the way, and helped make our wedding day so much fun, relaxed, and incredibly special.

When we received our gallery, we were completely blown away. Every photo is a work of art, capturing not only the moments of the day but also the emotions behind them. We will cherish these memories forever, and we are beyond grateful to Sam and his team for giving us such beautiful keepsakes. We truly couldn’t recommend them more highly!

Best Wedding Decision We Made!

There aren’t enough amazing words to describe the level of talent, care, and enthusiasm that lead photographer Sam and his team at Eighty Eight Photo puts together for the couples they work with. Our wedding day felt like a dream! From planning meetings, engagement sessions, to the excitement that was brought and shared with our closest loved ones on our wedding day, Eighty Eight Photo truly made us feel special, and the pictures that were captured absolutely blew us away and exceeded our expectations. Not only did Sam do an excellent job of making us feel comfortable, we laughed and smiled constantly working with him, and that same sentiment was shared by all of our friends and family that he got to meet and work with on our wedding day as well. He’s genuinely one of the greatest professionals you’ll ever work with! If you want some of the most beautiful pictures you’ve ever seen, whether it’s for a wedding, family pictures, or anything else, the best decision you can make by far is prioritizing your selection for a photographer. Sam, his assistant DJ, and Eighty Eight Photo as a whole are truly remarkable and captured the best memories that we’ll treasure for years to come. Thank you guys so much for everything!

The BEST Engagement Photos We Could Have Asked For!!!

This was me and my fiancés first time ever experiencing a professional photoshoot so we felt a little nervous at first. We quickly realized there was no need to feel this way and the whole shoot honestly felt like we were hanging out with a friend. Sam allows for a space of authenticity and comfortably which is shown through his pictures. Between his editing, unique style and artistic creativity his photos really are like no others. Ever since showing our photos to friends and family every single one of them have asked for his name!! We could not have asked for a better experience and we cannot recommend Sam more!

Excellent wedding photographer

I would recommend Eighty-Eight Photography to anyone looking for a wedding photographer in the Cleveland area, or any other area for that matter! Sam was incredible - he got so many incredible shots. He has a great eye, is a great director, and will help you get some incredible pictures even on wet/dreary days like we had! He is efficient with his photos - which is incredibly valuable on a busy wedding day. Also, just a really nice dude who is easy to get along with. The videographer Matt was also wonderful and helped us get some great lighting for our pictures as well as captured a great video of the ceremony! Would definitely recommend!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
