EXPERIENCE

ELOPEMENTS, WEDDINGS, & COUPLES

I want to capture what makes your relationship special to YOU. To capture what really showcases who you are as a couple. I'm allllll about movement and you enjoying yourselves. One of my top goals is to make our time together as comfortable as possible and to not have you in stiff poses. I'm here to play some music with you and laugh with you while you soak up some special moments with your person. 
When you invest your time and trust in me, I invest everything I have into you, your experience and your memories. It’s not just the click of a button, it is a big responsibility to photograph all of your moments. From the fleeting moments of your spectacular wedding day, to the carefree moments of a date night at sunset with your boo (and me) laughing and having fun.

Frequently Asked Questions

do you use photoshop?

The short answer is no. Don’t get me wrong, I will use photoshop to edit out some blemishes or obstructions in the background, but I cannot add in family members, or alter you in drastic ways. If you absolutely NEED to photoshop Aunt Sally who couldn’t make it, I would happily find an expert that can make that happen for you!

how many images are included?

In my packages I list out the lowest amount of photos I will deliver to you. You can expect to receive about 50-100 final hand- edited images per hour of coverage! After your wedding day, I'll remove any photos you wouldn't want or need (people blinking, blurry, etc) and edit & deliver the rest! don't worry, I won't withhold any images I think you'll want.

do we need an engagement session?

You of course can opt out of your included engagement session, but I really strongly suggest that you don't! My style of photography works best when we've gotten to know each other. An engagement session is the perfect time for us to hang out & spend time together before your day! It's also a great way to get comfortable in front of the camera, and practice makes perfect. It's totally natural to feel a little bit nervous/awkward when you're not used to having your photo taken, but your engagement session will make you two pros by the time the wedding rolls around!

SHOULD I INCLUDE A 2ND PHOTOGRAPHER?

While I'm confident in my ability to shoot all of my weddings solo, I recommend second photographers for larger weddings, or when couples are getting ready separately and the timeline doesn't allow me to be with them both. They can provide another perspective to your day and an alternate angle of every situation! We can chat more about this option on a quick consultation call.

what if you haven't shot at my venue before?

No worries ! I am never scared of shooting at a new place. I usually will arrive a little bit early just to get a feel for the space. But I also do research on your venue before-hand and am confident that I can find all the right places to capture your gorgeous photos in. It's all part of the process and I promise I got this :)

do you create wedding albums?

Absolutely ! Wedding albums are an incredible keepsake to commemorate your day. There's something special about having a physical copy of your photos look back on. If you are interested I have a whole guide dedicated to the different albums I offer and how the process works.

do you travel?

Of course ! I love being able to capture you in your favorite place ! I'd love to discuss details for a custom quote.

Do you send us the RAW images?

Nope ! I don't send any un-edited/RAW files. Most of the magic happens during the editing process, so without that your photos are only halfway done!

" Sam will help you capture authentic, timeless, moments that you will want to wallpaper your entire home with "

"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."

"  The details she captured and special moments were just stunning and nothing short of magical."

"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."

" 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!"

" Effortless magic is what you'll gain from a photographer like her  "

"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. 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."

" She felt like my #1 hypeman on the wedding day. "

"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!"

" She is absolutely phenomenal - hands down our favorite wedding vendor. "

"We don't even know where to begin in our review of Sam for our engagement and wedding photography. She is absolutely phenomenal - hands down our favorite wedding vendor. Her sweet and bubbly personality made it easy for us to be ourselves. This in combination with her special ability to capture the perfect, emotion-filled moment makes her worth every penny. She responses prompting to emails and delivered both of our "sneak peeks" in record time. We received more wedding photos back than we could ever dream of, each snapshotting a precious moment we will now never forget. If you want a talented, dedicated and passionate photographer - choose Sam!"
