Hire them!

We are SO grateful we chose So Many Moments Photography for our wedding! Sam and Matt are that rare duo who make you forget the cameras are even there—then hand you a gallery that rips your heart open in the best way.

Even though our celebration was in Central Florida, we knew we had to have them. They were absolutely worth bringing across the country. Now that they’re based in Sandpoint, Idaho, North Idaho couples—quit scrolling—your dream team is already home.

Their approach was everything we wanted: genuine, natural, unobtrusive, documentary-style storytelling. They captured every single moment—unposed, unrushed, unreal. Just pure story. Nothing felt staged or forced, just true memories we can feel every time we look at our gallery (for, you know, the 47th time).

Sam and Matt were easygoing yet incredibly professional—working tirelessly all night while somehow helping us stay present in every moment. And the quality of their work? So breathtaking that some of our photos even went on to win international photography awards (yes, really).

If you’re searching for wedding photographers in North Idaho—or anywhere—who can authentically capture your day, we couldn’t recommend Sam and Matt more. They made our experience unforgettable, and we truly can’t imagine our wedding without them.

We are SO HAPPY we chose So Many Moments to photograph our wedding. Samantha and Matt were so fantastic to work with - from the first meeting to the last. On the day of the wedding they were prompt, organized and professional - and most importantly, a delight to be around! Samantha was fantastic in working with our families for the big group photographs, getting them organized with a smile. Our guests loved the photo booth and the amazing, high quality, color prints they took with them. We are thrilled with the photographs they captured from our wedding day, each and every special moment. I recommend them wholeheartedly!

We don't even know where to start. If you are looking for something beyond your every day, posed, run of the mill photography, then you really must not look any further. Hiring So Many Moments to shoot your occasion is hiring an EXPERIENCE (and an amazing one at that).

My wife and I had the privilege of hiring So Many Moments to shoot our engagement photos and our wedding photos and we are above and beyond happy with the results. They flew to Florida from Oregon to document our wedding for us. Prior to coming to Florida, Sam was remarkable about keeping the lines of communication open. Always quick to respond, she answered all of our questions and guided us through the process step by step. We were never left wondering how everything would work because their professionalism was apparent from the start.

Sam and Matt captured the most amazing moments to really document our special day in a way that's unlike any photography we've ever seen. Their down to earth and approachable personalities made it so easy and natural. The day of our engagement shoot, we were SO stressed out. The second Sam arrived to take our photos, our spirits were lifted by her vibrant positivity. She helped us to relax and was able to capture the joy of our wedding experience -- not the stress we had been feeling in the beginning of the day.

They are also some of THE most creative and talented people we've ever met. We cannot stop looking at our amazingly beautiful and professional wedding album and all of the other digital photos we were given. We both wish we could do it all over again just to have this experience with So Many Moments.

Samantha and Matt Moore of So Many Moments are the real deal. Their personalities are infectious and they never fail to end up with the most amazing pictures around. We asked So Many Moments to take our engagement photos for us and we could not be happier! Unfortunately, we were unable to have Samantha and Matt capture our wedding as well, but Samantha gave a great recommendation for how to find a great photographer in our area! It doesn't matter if you are a classic bride or an offbeat bride, Samantha and Matt will give you the exact pictures you want for your day. They see things that are going on that you didn't even know about and allow you to relive your day in "so many moments"! Their photos are a gift to the bride and groom... they don't waste time on taking photos you're "supposed" to take that you never want to look at again (unless you want that of course!), but instead they capture emotions and mini time capsules that you'll want to look at over and over for the rest of your happily married life.

My first encounter with Sam & Matt was at a friend's wedding a couple of years ago. After seeing their wedding photos and looking at the So Many Moments portfolio, I knew this was the team I wanted for my wedding day!
We live in Idaho, but had our wedding in Oregon; Sam was fantastic about promptly returning emails and was really flexible in making sure she could meet with us in person when we made trips to Portland. She asked all the right questions about what we wanted, making sure that she was able to capture people and moments that were important to us.
On our wedding day Sam and Matt were very professional, but kept things light and fun for us! They did a wonderful job of capturing every moment from multiple angles and we had plenty of laughs when it was just us, Sam and Chris taking pictures after the ceremony.
We could not have asked for a more fun, creative, TALENTED team to capture the moments of a special day!
Sam & Matt are truly the BEST!

Sam and Matt are FANTASTIC, and when I say Fantastic.... it is an understatement... :-) Once we got engaged my first mission was to hire a photographer, and boy am I happy we made the decision to go with Sam and Matt! We had a friend that recently showed us her wedding pictures and they were my biggest nightmare...the sun was so harsh that everyone was squinting or they had terrible shadows on their face.. I looked high and low for someone who was in our budget, photojournalistic, and had 2 photographers (not 1 photographer and an assistant). Sam and Matt were just this! After booking a photographer we became very "go with the flow" with wedding planning. About a month before the big day Sam sent a list of questions for details... it was much needed as she helped me get things in order! We flew them into Rochester, NY and didn't see them until wedding day but they were great!!! They blended into our wedding as if it was natural for them and for us. We never felt they were obtrusive, or in the way of anything we did (this was a huge concern of our officiant and families that they didnt want our photographer to "run our wedding")...so how were the pictures you ask??? When Sam posted the preview pictures on facebook I went crazy! They were AMAZING... she captured only the good side/angle of my husband and I. She captured moments that were mico-seconds...but they were special. She took pictures of EVERYTHING and EVERYONE!! I spent the whole night looking at the 10 pictures she posted originally on facebook... I called EVERYONE to look at them!! I called her to thank her for them too! I told her that for month's I've looked at other people's wedding pictures online and I've thought they were beautiful, and I wished/hoped that I would look half that good in my pictures... and then there I was looking at my wedding pictures... and I looked amazing... and Everyone looked amazing!!! Sam and Matt are FANTASTIC!!

So Many Moments did a simply outstanding job at our wedding. After several months of showing our wedding pics to friends and family, we have received many compliments of the quality and professionalism of our photos. Many of our friends wished they had the opportunity to work with Matt and Sam for their wedding! They made things so smooth and easy and have a speical way of truly capturing special moments throughout the day. I highly recommend them to any couple or anyone in general looking for quality, fun and professional photos.

I've always loved Samantha's work, and getting married gave me the chance to finally be featured in some of it. On the morning of my wedding, it began to snow on Mount Hood; our wedding was at Timberline Lodge. While one of my friends was frantically calling everyone who didn't have 4WD to get up there (vendors included), Samantha casually strolled into the room and started snapping pictures. Big sigh of relief. She and Matt are fun to work with; they managed to get THE SHOT time and time again, without anyone really noticing them working. Once I got my pictures back, my jaw just dropped. I expected there to be a few shots that I would really love, not a whole disc of perfect, beautiful, dramatic shots. Highly, highly, recommend them.

Samantha was amazing. We of course first fell in love with the portfolio on her website, and then she was extremely flexible in putting together a package that worked for our budget. Samantha and Matt are great because they are both very professional when it comes to planning, reliability, and efficiency on the big day, but they're also super fun people to be around and kept the energy up during our formal photo shoots. Also, the client gets all of the photo files on archival grade DVD (in a beautiful keepsake DVD case!) and has rights to reprint without any fees to So Many Moments.

We loved having our photography done by Samantha and Matt, would recommend them to anyone, and have a beautiful set of photos we will treasure forever!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Samantha is a true professional and artist. I had the distinct pleasure of having Sam and Matt present at my wedding to capture every special moment and detail. Now, I have had the honor to work with So Many Moments at weddings that I plan. Sam ensures that you recieve your albums/photos/dvd in a very timely manner and does her best to showcase your wedding in a close-to-perfect light; however, she enjoys showing off the quirks of the day, too! This is a dynamic team that is at the forefront of wedding photography trends...trailblazers!

So Many Moments are such great photographers, that we hired them for our own wedding! Matt and Sam are talented in every single way, and each wedding shoot they do is uniquely tailored to the couple. The photographs catch unique and special moments, and the editing and quality is superb.

I have worked with Samantha at So Many Moments several times, her style is unique and stunning. She is very easy to work with and is definitely one of my preferred photographers. I would recommend meeting with Samantha as, even though her web page is good, once you see her physical work you will be sold.
