Got married 10/12/14. I found Sam through a friend of a friend who used Sam for her wedding day and i absolutely fell in love with her work and knew I had to have her on my wedding...
day. Best decision I ever made. She is an amazing person and photographer she made me and husband fell so comfortable and captured our relationship and our love for each other in each photo she took.
The things I could say about Sam would fill a book because she is nothing short of amazing. She talked to me on the phone about anything and everything she calmed my nerves and always reminded me that it’s gonna work out even if it doesn’t go the way you expected. Not only was she my photographer but I would like to think of her as a friend as well.
Sam did my engagement photos and traveled all the way down to LBI after flying in from California the night before. If that doesn’t show how much she loves her Job and the person she photographes then idk what will. I was truly blessed to have Sam as my photographer and if I could do it again I would absolutely use her. She just didn’t know engagement photos and wedding she will also be doing any other future events in my life because she is amazing! 1000000/10 recommend Sam for your big day or any other life event you have going on.
BOOK HER NOW! Sam is easily one of the best photographers in the wedding game (I'm a creative director... I am extremely picky). Not only is she extremely talented but she is a ga...
l's gal! I told her my wedding photograph fears and she truly calmed my nerves, made it fun and gave me everything I could ask for. My entire family & friends loved being around her. Simply put... she is just rad. Do not hesitate to have her there on your special day. She will only make it more magical.
Sam did both our engagement and wedding photos and they are absolutely AMAZING. We could not be happier with how everything turned out!! The quality of each photo is unreal. On top...
of that, Sam made the entire process as easy and seamless as possible. She is friendly and genuine - she's someone you want by your side on your wedding day. Cannot recommend Sam and Mountain Peak Studios enough!!
Sam is absolutely amazing and a dream to work with. From our initial consultation to our wedding day Sam made the entire process seamless and so enjoyable. She captured all of the ...
joy and love we felt on our wedding day. Every single photo is amazing, looking through them felt like reliving the day all over again. We couldn't be happier that we chose Sam to be our photographer and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to capture their big day.
I tell every single person who asks not only how important choosing a great wedding photographer is, but how choosing Sam will be the best decision they make for their wedding.

don’t think I most couples understand how much time they will spend with their photographer throughout their wedding day. Your photographer gets there while you’re getting ready and spends just about every moment with you until the night is over. Not only should you want someone who takes gorgeous photos, but you should also want someone who is genuinely fun to be around so you feel like you’re spending your day with a friend vs someone you’ve only met once or twice.
One look at her website or Instagram will show you that Sam’s photos are stunning, but on top of that she is such a genuine, caring, and fun person to be around. Myself, my husband, and all of our friends and family felt like we were hanging out with a close friend all day long. She made us feel comfortable while taking photos and did a great job of capturing photos in ways that felt natural and fun vs stiff and posed.
The weather didn’t cooperate for us the day of our wedding but that didn’t stop Sam. She ran around outside in the cold, wind, and rain taking outdoor property photos with us because she knew how bad we wanted them and never once complained or even stopped smiling and hyping us up. She kept assuring us the photos were gorgeous and no one would be able to tell how crappy the weather was and she was 100% correct. I can honestly say that as a bride dealing with rain on her wedding day, the only thing that kept me calm was knowing Sam would take amazing photos no matter what the weather or other circumstances were.
Because of the weather, we didn’t get to use our floral arrangement set up on the outdoor arbor and we were pretty disappointed about that. During cocktail hour Sam grabbed a few umbrellas and asked if we’d want to go outside and see the unused ceremony set up and take a few umbrella pictures in the rain. Once we got to the ceremony spot, there was a stunning sunset and even though it was raining heavily at that point, Sam had us set up for a few photos that turned out to be not only some of my favorite photos of the day but also one of my favorite moments of the night. She stood there in the pouring rain while we ran around and danced and she managed to perfectly document the emotions and feelings of a newlywed couple.
I cannot say enough great things about Sam. She is so incredibly talented, her prices are more than fair, and she will do whatever it takes to make sure she delivers the wedding photos of your dreams. Several of our friends are already planning to work with her for their weddings after seeing how our photos turned out. If we had to plan the whole day over again, I would choose Sam every single time.
I cannot say enough positive things about Mountain Peak Studios! My husband and I are not super comfortable on camera but you would never know that from our engagement and wedding ...
photos and that's a testament to Sam's talent. She did an incredible job on our wedding day wrangling our wedding party and families and the results were unbelievable. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone.
We can honestly say, we love Sam. From the moment we met her, we knew she had to be our photographer. During our engagement shoot, Sam made us feel comfortable and her style truly ...
captures the spirit of each couple. We were so psyched about our engagement photos and we had so much fun. Our wedding had to be postponed due to COVID and Sam was very flexible with shifting our dates and working with us.
When our wedding day finally came, Sam was totally on it. She kept track of everything we wanted, reminded us gently of the pictures we hadn’t gotten yet, recognized when we needed a break from pictures, and was engaging with our friends and family. All of our guests were raving about how great she was to work with. Our wedding day would not have been the same without Sam as our photographer. She is a kind, funny and special person, who puts all of her energy into her photography…and it shows! Months after our wedding, we continue to look at the pictures every single day. We couldn’t be happier!
I just got married on 6/20/20 and received all my wedding photos and I could happy cry all over again. Sam is honestly the best and I couldn't be any luckier. She captured my weddi...
ng day so beautifully. From booking her, to our engagement shoot, to the wedding she was the sweetest, calmest, friendliest, and most patient person. I would hire her again and recommend her to everyone.
We hired Sam and Manny for our engagement shoot and for photographing/recording our wedding. We were honestly blown away with how all our photos came out. They were such a pleasur...
e to work and it's clear that they are very passionate about what they do. The 4 minute video Manny put together of our wedding ceremony and reception had me in tears...and it continues to make me cry every time I watch it! Seriously do not look any further because you will not be disappointed.
Samantha is SUCH a talented photographer. When we hired her, we knew we were going to have such a breezy experience with her, but we didnt realize HOW amazing she would be! Her per...
sonality is fantastic, which obviously helps when you're behind a lense and need to communicate and connect with dozens of people you've never met! But thats not all......her work is FLAWLESS. Her ideas were one of a kind, and the end results are nothing short of perfection. She gave us exactly what we were looking for, and MORE. Towards the middle/end of our wedding night, she made it a point to come up to myself and my husband and we went over a little list that she had because she wanted to make sure we got all of the shots we asked for. That meant so much to us, considering we were all over the place and had no way to keep track of anything!! We can't wait to get all of our pictures back so we can relive the most magical night of our lives. Thank you SO much Sam!!! xoxo Katie & Jim
Manny and Sam were so easy to work with for our wedding videography. We hired Manny after we went back and forth on video having already had a photographer booked for quite some ti...
me. We weren't sure we could invest in this service financially but we are glad we did! We are just 2 weeks out from our wedding, so we are waiting for our highlight video and other film, but we had a very positive experience working with Manny and Sam the day of! They know how to film like flies on the wall, but not miss a thing! They made us feel extremely comfortable, and were very professional. My parents commented on how they were filming all night but you would never notice them because they weren't in the way - this is exactly what you want in a film team! We cannot wait to see their work come to life!
I am so thankful I got Sam and Manny to do the photography and videography for my wedding. They made my family and bridal party feel so comfortable. They showed up on time and got ...
amazing photos without getting in the way of the events. I adore the photos they took of us and the final video we got. I would definitely recommend booking them for your wedding.
Sam & Manny are absolutely amazing and a dream to work with! From day one they perfectly captured our vision from the engagement session to our big day. Sam and Manny are truly pas...
sionate and genuinely love what they do and that comes through in the quality of their work. All our photos and wedding video turned out more beautiful than we imagined. If you’re thinking about booking them for your wedding, do it!! You wont be disappointed.
