Adventuring around the world with friends
The plan started out as a trip to a US national park, but as we kept changing plans and evolving what we wanted, Sam and Karly were always so there for it and incredibly supportive. We eventually landed on a three day excursion around Switzerland. Having only had short planning conversations over the course of a year, I was a little nervous to see how we all vibed in person, but there was no need.
Quickly, it felt like traveling around with friends. From seeing great spots for spontaneous photos to pizza and bouncing on a trampoline in a wedding dress and road tripping across the country, Sam and Karly really made this the experience of a lifetime. I couldn't imagine this elopement with anyone but them!

Highly recommend!
My fiancé and I always get very nervous before taking photos because it can be kind of awkward at times. Not with this duo! Sam and Karly are awesome. They made us feel very calm and relaxed during our engagement photo session and it really showed in our photos. They both have great eyes for capturing AMAZING moments and my fiancé and I were SO SO HAPPY with the results. They use the outdoors and nature in super unique ways that create gorgeous photos that beautifully encapsulate the moment! We were so happy that we immediately decided to choose them for photography/videography for our wedding! I HIGHLY recommended ThirdEyeSamuel! If you’re looking for Austin Wedding Photographers and Videographers, my fiancé and I 100% recommend ThirdEyeSamuel

Our EPIC photo shoot with Samuel & Karly
We had the most amazing time with Samuel and Karly at our adventurous ‘Trash the Dress’ photo shoot. Wearing my wedding gown in an epic outdoor location while suspended in the sky was an experience of a lifetime! Sam and Karly at ThirdEyeSamuel are THE best Adventure Elopement Photographers and Videographers, and I cannot recommend them enough. They went above and beyond to create an unforgettable experience and authentically capture every moment on camera.. from multiple angles, too! I will forever cherish this day and the many beautiful images and videos

Engagement Shoot
We booked Samuel and Karly for our engagement pictures, and I cannot recommend them enough. They met with us at Butler Park and captured our session so beautifully. Both my fiancé and I are extremely awkward in front of the camera, but they did such a great job of talking us through the shoot. Samuel and Karly are so easy-going and funny and kind, and it just turned into a really fun afternoon for us. The pictures turned out amazing and Samuel got them back to us in just one day! We were able to use them for our wedding announcement, and we have gotten so many compliments on them! If you're looking for a wedding photographer in the central Texas area, definitely book them!

Engagement Photoshoot
Sam & Karly were a pleasure to work with during our engagement photoshoot in downtown Austin. They took us to the perfect locations that fit the aesthetic we were looking for. They provided us with great direction and their calm nature made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. We’ve already recommended ThirdEyeSamuel to our friends and family. We’re extremely satisfied with the end product and can’t wait to work with them again on our big day!

Excellent Photagrapher!
Samuel was an excellent photographer before during and after the shoot. His assistance for my engagement photos was everything I could have asked for and more! His communication was clear and very responsive. He helped me talk my ideas through and make a plan I was confident in. The day of, he was extremely polite and creative with finding the right spots and angles for the best pictures. Lastly the photo turnaround was faster than I anticipated and I couldn’t have been happier with the results. I can very easily recommend his services to anyone who may need him for any event, you won’t be disappointed. I look forward to my next event when I will return to Thirdeyesamuel for all my photography needs.

Absolutely love!
Samuel and his wife, Karly, did such an amazing job filming my wedding. I love the final video, it captured everything we ever wanted. Can’t wait to continue to watch it in years to come to relive our big day. Samuel and Karly were both very professional and knew exactly what they were doing. Karley and Samuel blended right in and seem so down to earth. They were there to capture every special moment! Definitely recommend for anyone’s wedding! We received the video in just 3 days! They also took photographs on top of the photographer I hired, which I can’t wait to see, the preview looked fantastic. Thank you Sam and Karly! Y’all were amazing!

Beautiful and Creative Photography by kind-hearted husband and wife team
So many great things to say about Sam and Karly... Where do I even begin?! It was such a blessing to have crossed paths with these two. They did an outstanding job on my wedding video and photography! Sam had called me prior to the wedding to introduce himself and asked what I wanted captured on camera- it was a nice way to show he really cared about our day. Sam and Karly were thorough, knew exactly what to do and they even arrived hours before the event to make sure everything was set up just right. They exceeded my expectations and left a genuine long lasting impression on me and the wedding guest. We all instantly loved them and their warm, inviting demeanor- as if they were old friends. Meeting them and looking back on the work they did for us brings me so much joy and I'll always be so thankful for them and their hard work. They are a MUST for your next event! Nothing but beautiful and creative work!
