From the day we booked our engagement session to over a year later on our wedding day, Sam has been an absolute pleasure to work with! Not only is she a great photographer, she's the hype woman you need during photo sessions who makes you feel like you've known each other for years. She's professional, trustworthy & quick to send sneak peeks. I'm thrilled to have found her & I can't wait to use her beyond our wedding day. I can't recommend her enough!
Working with Sam has been amazing! We’ve done our engagement photo shoot with her and have her shooting our wedding in March! The photos turned out amazing and she knew exactly how to pose and work with us! We are not the most photogenic couple and she made us feel so comfortable and had so many ideas! She also had location recommendations I haven’t seen before that made for amazing photos I’ll cherish forever! Can’t wait for our wedding with her, I know the photos will turn out amazing!🤍 Will also be booking her for future shoots🫶🏼
About this vendor
Sam Richter
PHOTOGRAPHER
At Sam Richter Photography, I believe your wedding photographs should feel just as beautiful as the memories themselves.
Based in the St. Louis area and available for weddings throughout Missouri, Illinois, and beyond, I specialize in timeless, editorial wedding photography with a soft, romantic, and intentional approach.
My style blends refined, artfully composed portraits with genuine, unscripted moments.
I believe the most beautiful photographs happen when you feel comfortable, confident, and completely present. I’ll offer gentle direction when needed while allowing the real emotions, natural movement, and meaningful in-between moments to unfold organically.
More than anything, I want you to look back on your gallery years from now and remember not only how your wedding day looked, but exactly how it felt.
For the lovers and the in-betweens. I’d be honored to tell your story. 🤍
Sam Richter Photography offers top-class wedding services in Edwardsville, IL.

Just a girl with a camera, a love for pretty things, a little bit of chaos, and a whole lot of heart. Mama to a fearless, thrill-seeking little boy who keeps me on my toes. Usually chasing golden hour, romanticizing the little moments, and on coffee run!
