Sam+Chris

These guys just blew me away with their professionalism, expertise and very personal service. They are so easy to work with. Both Sam and Chris are down to earth people, easygoing and flexible but also very hard working. They offered creative suggestions while at the same time respected our "vision" as a couple. They made me feel like a star on my wedding day and the pictures made us look like models. They just seem to understand light, shadows and color in a way that other photographers don't. My best advice to future brides is to splurge on the best photographer you can find because the pictures are what last forever (not the music or the food). It was only when we finally hung up our wedding pictures that our house felt like a home. Sam and Chris definitely know how to capture that love and energy and they are worth every penny!

My wife and I were just married this year, and we used Sam+Chris Photography. This is easily one of the best decisions we could have ever made. Having received a degree in Broadcast Production, I know a bit about photography and camera work, and I have to admit--Samantha is the consummate professional when it comes to photography. She has a phenomenal artistic eye and a deep understanding of her craft. Sam and Chris are a fantastic team, easy to work with and completely in sync. We had the privilege of using their services for our engagement pictures and wedding photos. Sam+Chris offered a variety of affordable package options, leaving my wife and me feeling that we had freedom over our choices without breaking the bank. The process of shooting was even great. After speaking to us both to find out what we had in mind, Sam and Chris tailored the entire process to our personalities and needs. For our engagement pictures, Sam suggested some great ideas, and we enjoyed an adventure traveling to some picturesque locations around New Orleans. While posing for pictures can sometimes feel unnatural or awkward, they made shooting a comfortable, enjoyable experience that didn't feel at all like work. If anything, I was almost disappointed when it was over since we were all having fun. Throughout the day, Sam demonstrated real intuition for the best shots and poses. She chose gorgeous angles while proposing creative ideas for poses that conveyed the relationship personality of my wife and me. Additionally, she exhibited a knack for knowing when to improvise and experiment, following her instincts to generate some stunning material. For the wedding, Sam and Chris brought the same level of quality, traveling all the way to Florida to capture our beach wedding. Through their vision and expertise, Samantha and Chris perfectly captured our special day in a way that will help us relive it forever. The beach shots are incredible, and their knowledge of lighting and angles helped facilitate the entire process. Moreover, Sam and Chris captured some touching, tender moments from the wedding--moments that only a true photographer could really capture. So many weddings look the same in photos, but Sam and Chris displayed prowess by conveying a real sense of individuality and personality in our photos. Furthermore, we were amazed at the writing-with-sparkler shots that Sam recommended (what a neat photography trick!). Sam and Chris really showed off their excellent teamwork skills while pulling off this highly-involved, exciting part of our night. In the end, the remarkable work and artistry speaks for itself. The breath-taking photos are a tour de force. My wife and I love the finished product, and we are so absolutely grateful for all of the hard work Sam and Chris put into making our engagement and wedding so special. They are such a joy to work with and be around. I can't express enough how happy we were with our decision, and we'd gladly recommend them to everyone.

We used Sam+Chris for our engagement pictures and for our beach wedding in Pensacola, Fl. Everything about our experience with them was amazing! All of our pictures were incredible. I got so many compliments on them. It was really difficult to choose just a few favorites to hang in our home. They are both very friendly and easy to work with. We got a ton of fantastic pictures at a great price. Every moment was captured perfectly. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for engagement and/or wedding photographers.

Sam and Chris exceeded expectations in photographing all of the events of the big day. I especially loved the way they captured of all of our guests celebrating at the reception.
