    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.

    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!

    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!

    Samantha is hands down the best photographer. Her professionalism combined with artistic talent and fun personality is a perfect combination. She has made the process so easy when this can be a stressful time, because her calm yet fun approach makes you feel at ease immediately. Samantha will walk you through every step, answer any question quickly, offer recommendations and even suggestions for things you wouldn’t have thought about. You need to hire Samantha for your wedding, I guarantee you won’t regret it!!

    Samantha has taken photos for several of my colleagues, and she came highly recommended by everyone. I absolutely loved the photos she took for our wedding this October. They were sophisticated without being stuffy, and fun without being cheesy. She has a great eye for candid shots in particular. Samantha is responsive, flexible, professional and calm - it was just a real pleasure to work with her before the wedding and during the big day. It makes me so happy even now to flip through the photos she took. She was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and I'm grateful that we have such beautiful shots from such a happy day for us.

    SLY Photography came highly recommended to my now wife and I from a number of people who had used her for their weddings. When we first met with her, Samantha was incredibly attentive to our wants in terms of photography. She helped us create a list of "must have" photos, and she made sure to capture each and every one on the day of our wedding. She blended into the day seamlessly, and while she maintained a professional attitude, she was also just fun to have around! We are so thankful to have found SLY Photography and couldn't be happier with the way our pictures turned out. My wife can't stop looking at them!

    My husband and I were so incredibly pleased with Sly Photography. Sam is a true master at her craft! She was so easy and wonderful to work with leading up to our wedding and also proved to be a calming presence on our wedding day. She was relaxed and laid back, professional and intuitive when it came to finding the best shots. She made sure to check in throughout the night to make sure she was capturing everything we wanted, while never once being bothersome. She seemlessly blended into our day! Most importantly, when the pictures came back, very soon after the wedding, they were STUNNING. I am incredibly critical of myself when it comes to being photographed and there wasn’t one picture I didn’t love. Sam is beyond talented and I can’t recommend her highly enough!!

    I cannot recommend SLY Photography enough! Samantha Yanofsky is a true professional and truly captured each and every magical moment. She was a pleasure to go through the planning process with, a great communicator, and beyond attentive on the day of our wedding. She made everyone feel comfortable while being incredibly efficient. I am so thrilled with how our pictures came out and was so pleasantly surprised by how quickly we received them! Sam is the best!

    Sam facilitated my fiancé and I for our engagement, she helped with the surprise and the arrival of gifts amongst other things.
    Sam’s professionalism is beyond, polite and very giving to make the perfect pictures, as she knows their not just pictures but memories that will last a lifetime. Through the work Sam has produced and in her presence you can really tell when somebody relishes their job through their work and this is top of the class.

    I will be definitely using sly photography for the big day and other things in the near future.

    Thank you once again if I haven’t said it enough

    Sam was amazing to work with. She was willing to fly across the country to our wedding location and was extremely helpful in planning the shots for the wedding day. She also helped to remind us about certain behaviors (holding flowers, etc) that you would otherwise forget about until the pictures came back. We were so amazed with how Sam was able to capture the beauty of our special day. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!

    Samantha is a wonderful photographer, and a genuinely fun person to have buzzing about your wedding. When I received the link to our photos I spent the next hour (and several more since) scrolling through stunner after stunner and grinning like a fool at my desk. During the wedding, Sam was present, but not intrusive, engaged, but not distracting, and did a great job wrangling me, my wife, and our guests to make sure that we got all of the pictures we wanted. Go with Sam and know that you're in good hands.

    Sam is such a delight to work with and she has a unwavering ability to capture the moments that were most important to us. Every possible opportunity she to add value to our event she did and this goes beyond her duties of photography. I will definitely recommend her to others in my family and network. Thanks so much to Sam and SLY for capturing the most special day of our lives.

    Sam is an amazing photographer! She photographed my daughter and son-in-law's wedding perfectly. Their personalities shown through beautifully in all of the pictures; they clearly had so much fun and felt very comfortable with Sam behind the camera. Sam did a great job of checking all of my daughter's requested pictures off her list and used her creativity to think of the best ways to capture the day from getting ready through the reception. The photographs are absolutely stunning. She is very talented and a pleasure to work with. We cannot recommend Sam enough!

    My fiance and I hired Sam to photograph our wedding in July of 2015 after being very impressed with all of her former work. As part of our package, we were offered an engagement shoot. We were a bit nervous as neither of us are particularly comfortable in front of the camera! Sam was professional, flexible, fun and at ease throughout the entire shoot. She knew all the best shots to take and knew exactly where to take us for them. We were comfortable the whole time and the pictures came out beautiful! We can't wait to see what she can make happen on the big day. Can't recommend Sam enough! She is the best.

    Sam from Sly Photography has done our annual fundraiser event for the past 5 years, promotional print work, and head shots. We continue to use her for any occasion or business need. She makes time for her clients and is so quick to send proofs!

    Samantha came highly recommended, as she is from my hometown. At our first meeting, I knew right away I wanted her to do our wedding! We talked as if I've known her for ages, and her portfolio was beautiful. She made us feel so comfortable during photos and easy to talk to. I highly recommend SLY Photography!
