Amazing Wedding Photographer!

We were lucky enough to book SLY Photography for our wedding and couldn’t be happier with our choice of photographer. Sam made the entire process very easy; she walked us through selecting a package, assisted with planning our day of schedule to ensure sufficient time for photos, scouted creative locations at our venue, and delivered our pictures and a beautiful album expediently after the event. Sam was easy to communicate with, and very professional. She made us feel comfortable, which is evident in our photos, and she did a fantastic job capturing every moment. Sam’s assisting photographer was also very professional and easy to work with. As a team, they did an excellent job capturing our wedding and we would highly recommend trusting Sam with photographing any occasion.

the most perfect photographer!

Sam is the exact person you want on your team for your wedding day! She makes you feel comfortable, at ease and captures the moments with excitement and enthusiasm! Sam gets it- she knows how to get the best images without being in your face or making it feel stiff and awkward. I can't imagine hiring another photographer for any of my celebratory occasions. Don't look any further- and hire her today!

Phenomenal Wedding Photographer

My wife and I could not recommend Sam highly enough! We absolutely love how our photos turned out and she captured so many small moments we would never have known about without her keen attention to detail. Sam is creative and set up some amazing shots as we walked through lower Manhattan right after our ceremony that are going to be memories that last a lifetime! Sam's work is second to none!

First-class photographer!

Sam was a pleasure to work with and we loved the photos. My husband is pretty uncomfortable taking photos but she got him to open up and participate. We have some really amazing, genuine shots of the two of us. The photos from our couples session and reception are all over our house! She's really great at capturing the candid moments that you'd never see otherwise. Highly recommend.
