There isn’t another photographer we could’ve been happier with than Sam! From how fun and comfortable she made our engagement shoot, to seeing how AMAZING her shots were on our wedding day. The photos came out beautifully and we are so happy with them. Sam always communicated with us along the way, her professionalism, kindness, and skill were always evident in her conduct and work. She made our fall wedding look like an absolute dream and captured all of the details and moments of our special day. 100% would recommend to any of my dearest friends and family. -

My husband and I are from out of the area and found Sam's work through social media and instantly fell in love with her style. During our initial call, we really hit it off with Sam, who is so genuine, kind, and compassionate towards her couples. Sam made us feel comfortable and kept it light and fun during our engagement shoot (which is not easy to do). She effortlessly captured our engagement session and wedding. She made herself available anytime to chat about our vision, timelines, specific goals and ideas. Sam's energy throughout the shoot/wedding day really helped elevate the feelings that come through in the photos- love and authenticity. Our wedding day was a whirlwind, but the moment of receiving our preview photos absolutely blew us away. We felt like we were living our wedding day all over again! The details she captured and special moments were just stunning and nothing short of magical. She is your biggest hype woman too- my husband and I are still talking about how she kept gassing us up during photos. Having your best memories captured by her is a dream come true. We are so incredibly grateful to have found Sam, she is a true gem. -

We have used Sam for fall photoshoots, our engagement shoot, our rehearsal dinner, and our wedding. She is an absolute dream to work with. She is professional, timely, creative, supportive, and all around the best out there. She goes above and beyond her role as a photographer even to fix my hair and veil throughout the day. She has so many ideas for poses that capture raw emotion. I can't say enough good things about her. She was there for our entire wedding process for anything that we needed, even if it didn't have to do with her photography. She provided next day sneak peeks that were absolutely incredible. She felt like my #1 hypeman on the wedding day. My husband and I are so grateful for her and can't wait to use her again for the future! We have recommended her for all of our family and friends to use. We love you, Sam!!!! You rock! -

Sam was the lead photographer for my wedding, and for one of my close friend's weddings. On top of already being super charismatic, Sam really invests the time in getting to know her couples on a personal level and making them feel comfortable while taking photos -- an experience that can be awkward for many. She knows how to get everyone having fun, and she can adapt to crazy situations and weather changes on the fly. We had to adapt a large portion of the photography timeline on my wedding day because of a bad storm and Sam handled this like a pro. Her editing skills are amazing and I'd describe her style as timeless, romantic, and moody. Sam is truly the kindest person ever and you really want people like her in your corner on one of the most important days of your life. You will not regret booking her!! -

Ashley L. Sent on 11/28/2023Sam: The Forever Photographer
My Husband and I have worked with Sam for the past three years now. In that time, she's given us a gift that we'll cherish forever: timeless memories. Sam was the photographer I originally found while searching for a person to take our couple's portraits for our first anniversary. That relationship blossomed from there to Christmas Mini's shoots, Engagement Surprises, and now the most special day of all, our September Wedding. What makes Sam special is the relationships she forms with her couples. A simple business transaction is always an option, but Sam takes the time to really get to know her clients. The energy she therefore brings to shoots makes her so easy to trust for whatever direction you might have for your special day. In her photos you have the chance to see love shine so naturally, in ways that still feel elevated and absolutely stunning. She was available anytime to chat with us about our vision. We created timelines together and very specific goals which ALL came to life on our day in every single way we discussed. The day itself was a whirlwind, so I really didn't experience it for the first time until we received our photos. The chance to see all the special details I missed was a dream come true. Im so grateful we found and fostered the relationship with Sam that we did. Effortless magic is what you'll gain from a photographer like her and trust me when I say you'll never regret seeing the best memories of your life through her lens. No matter the shoot, I still spend time daily looking at my photos, it's an honor to know that she will be a part of our love story for life. -

I definitely recommend using Sam for photography!! She is not only AMAZING at what she does, but she is such a wonderful person to work with. She brings your wedding vision to life through her photographs and she is so personable and makes you feel completely comfortable. I had some things happen on my wedding day that were out of my control (bad weather being one of the factors). Sam did not make me feel stressed at all. She let me know that there is still plenty of time for photos and that she’s got it under control which put me at ease and she really did have everything under control. She moved through different family pictures and other groups so quickly with plenty of time to sneak away for sunset pictures with my new husband. Every photo that came out was of the highest quality and those moments make me so happy to look back on. She really makes an effort to get to know her clients personally and she does something special/different for everyone depending on their vision and style. I did an engagement shoot and my wedding shoot with her and I still look at those photos almost everyday and my wedding was 5 months ago. I am so thankful that Sam was there for us. She really made our wedding day so special and went above and beyond. She’s also a great communicator and was very efficient with communicating ideas for photos and my vision before the wedding day! I feel like this really sets her apart from other vendors. You won’t be disappointed if you choose Sam as your wedding photographer. She is a high quality photographer and person😊 -

Elopement with Sam
Sam has been amazing! We first met her through a Christmas photo mini session and then fell in love her authenticity and talent. We didn't even think twice about booking her for our wedding. She is so accommodating and genuinely cares about us and our love. She is so friendly to everyone and captured every moment we wanted and even more! Our whole family fell in love with her and can't wait to have more memories documented by Sam. -

Jordan G. Sent on 02/15/2023she's too cool to be this good
Sam Leto is a gift. One of my greatest fears around our wedding day was that we wouldn't feel or look like "ourselves". I had admired Sam's work on instagram and her website, but didn't know if we could ever look as comfortable and natural in front of the camera as these other beautiful couples appeared. From the moment we met Sam for our engagement photos, I understood why her couples look so dang happy. She is the BOMB. My husband and I actually laughed and drank and awkwardly frolicked and danced and did all of the weird things, but somehow Sam captured all of that in photos I cannot wait to hang all over my house. She is funny, cool, relatable, and incredibly talented. I received so many compliments about Sam from my family and friends before they even saw her photos -- she is truly that wonderful. Sam also captured moments from our wedding day in a way that I couldn't have put into words to request, but will treasure forever. She captured the personalities of my most favorite people on our most favorite day, and my husband and I could not be happier! -

I don't even know where to begin. My husband and I have not stopped raving about Sam since our initial consultation. The most consistent wedding advice we received was to hire vendors that we trusted and got along with and Sam went above and beyond our expectations in every capacity. She made us both feel right at home and our engagement session felt like we were relaxing with an old friend (which shows in our photos). She effortlessly captured our engagement session and our wedding, making sure to capture smaller details that we hadn't even thought about until we got the photos back (but we're glad she did). Sam provided us with honest and helpful answers to miscellaneous wedding planning and timeline questions and we believe she's a large part of why our wedding went so smoothly. Sam truly took her time to get to know us and our relationship. She maintained a constant line of communication with us and delivered our sneak peaks and full galleries in what felt like no time. Not only are my husband and I absolutely obsessed with Sam and her work, but our friends and family also constantly bring up how amazing our wedding photos are. Sam will help you capture authentic, timeless, moments that you will want to wallpaper your entire home with, I promise. -

We booked Sam for our engagement and wedding photos and let me just say, she is a DREAM to work with. I fell in love with her work when I was shopping for a photographer to invest in for our wedding, and instantly knew she was the one. She's a natural and her talent really shines through her photos! I was in awe when we received our first sneak peeks for our engagement shoot, and knew then that our wedding photos would blow us away.
It was our first time working with a professional photographer, and my husband and I are very camera shy. Despite that, Sam made us feel so comfortable throughout the process and even gave us direction with how to pose which we were so grateful for. It made the whole session so easy and smooth for us.
On our wedding day, she made sure we were taken care of and was on top of schedule. I was so nervous on the day of, but she reassured me that we would get all the shots we needed, and she didn't disappoint! When we got our final gallery, I was speechless. Everything came out so beautiful, and now we have images that we will cherish and look back on when we're old. Sam's photos are like a dream that you don't want to wake up from. Her style is natural, striking, timeless, and classic. I look back on these photos and tear up every time. It's like I am reliving the day again.
If you're looking for a photographer to capture one of the most important days of your life, please book Sam! She is incredibly talented and the sweetest person you'll ever meet. I am so glad we invested in her for our special day! -

Working with Samantha was a dream!! She is so professional and made my husband and I feel so comfortable throughout the entire process. She delivered so many pictures as a sneak peek before we even got on the plane for our honeymoon! Everyone at our wedding raved about how great she was. Our pictures turned out even better that I could have imagined. We would recommend Samantha 1000%! -

Sam will make your day special!
Hiring Sam was one of the best decisions we made in the wedding planning process. We started with an amazing engagement session that captured so many special memories. For the wedding itself, she was amazing at ensuring we felt comfortable throughout the process, which meant that our photos really reflected our personality and the wedding itself. We really appreciated how she stuck to the shot list we provided for family photos and effectively corralled many personalities, which kept us on task prior to the ceremony itself. When the food ran a bit behind, Sam was kind enough to stay a bit later than originally planned to ensure we got plenty of amazing dance floor shots.
Finally, Sam's eye for detail is incredible and we have been consistently wow'ed by the photographs. Her editing skills are very strong, ensuring that each shot has just the right amount of light but the clean, minimalist quality we were looking for. We've gotten so many compliments on them we've lost count!
Hire Sam if you want an amazing person to join you for your most special day and to beautifully capture memories that will last a lifetime! -

Katharine S. Sent on 08/15/2022Incredibly Talented, Kind, and Fun photographer!
Hiring Sam was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Her photo style was the perfect blend of elegant and fun that we were looking for and we could not be more thrilled with the experience we had with her. From the start Sam was responsive, interactive, and answered all questions incredible quick and with great detail. We had an engagement session with Sam that we absolutely loved (we're super awkward but she made it fun and we loved how our photos came out). On wedding day Sam was on time, had everything prepped and ready to go, and get things calm as our planned timeline went a bit awry fairly quickly. Sam delivered some wedding sneak peaks almost immediately which we were so appreciative of so we had a few shots to review and live back the day right away. If you're looking for a really talented photographer who clearly cares about her work, and her clients, then I definitely recommend hiring her! -

I don’t even know where to begin because Sam was just so incredibly amazing throughout the wedding process! She took the most amazing engagement photos and wedding photos! They are so beautiful and I probably look at them 100 times a day! Sam is so easy to work with, made my husband and I feel super comfortable while taking photos, flexible, super sweet, and very accommodating. She made sure we got all of the photos we wanted on wedding day-I cannot stop looking at them. I love Sam’s aesthetic and the warmth of her photos. I definitely want to work with Sam again in the future for couples photos! Please do yourself a huge favor, and hire Sam to capture all the love on your big day!! -

My husband and I absolutely loved working with Sam as our engagement and wedding photographer! She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, and we enjoyed her sweet, fun, and easygoing personality. We love her style, use of natural light, and unposed photos. Sam helped us create a wedding day timeline and worked really well with our planner. Our wedding photos turned out amazing, and we are thrilled to share them with our friends and family. Thank you, Sam!! -

Fantastic!!
Sam is the best of the best! My husband and I really wanted photos that didn‘t feel stiff or forced, and were completely drawn to Sam’s work. Neither of us are very comfortable in front of the camera, but at our engagement shoot Sam gave us great direction and was friendly, warm, and easy to work with. On our wedding day, Sam and her second shooter went above and beyond to capture every moment. They were incredibly flexible, even braving below freezing temps outside multiple times to get the perfect shot. We love all of the pictures she delivered; we are seriously in awe of how well they capture our day, especially our loved one‘s personalities! We will treasure our photos forever! Don’t hesitate to book Sam, you’ll be so glad you did!! -

5 starts simply is not enough for Sam- she is incredible beyond words and can truly capture genuine emotions in pictures! I can honestly say from the moment I booked with her, I never stressed, had a moment of doubt or regretted my decision. Finding this gem on Instagram was a true blessing. If I had to do my wedding over again, I would pick Sam again and again! Talented, professional, gets back to you, makes you feel 100000% comfortable, and she DELIVERS 👏🏻 -

Absolute 100/10 experience!
Sam was such a joy to work with throughout our entire process. I first reached out to her in 2019 for our wedding in 2020, but even after rescheduling once and cancelling our wedding all together due to Covid, she was extremely understanding and just so kind about it all; she even offered to do a bridal session for us! She was responsive and followed up when she said she would, always had great suggestions of potential locations, and even went the extra mile of reaching out to the proper folks to get any and all permits sorted for us to take our photos at the Arboretum. On the day of the session, Sam made us feel relaxed and helped us to enjoy the session, and I think that really shows in the pictures. She also brought her pop-up changing tent for me, which was so thoughtful! She did us a huge favor when she offered the bridal session, and she did this while juggling an extremely busy wedding season; for this I am so grateful because she didn’t have to do any of that, but it’s truly a testament to how much she loves her work and her clients. I’m so lucky to have been able to work with Sam, and thank her so so so much for having been a wonderful, professional, kind, and AMAZING photographer!! -
