The BEST experience ever! Samantha is so good at making you comfortable and she makes the environment so fun! My partner and I are not super comfortable posing in front of a camera but with her it was so easy! She also captured our vision and took it to the next level. The photos we received back we’re amazing!!
If you are looking for a wedding photographer in the Las Vegas or San Diego area, I cannot praise Samantha Jacob Photography enough. From the ease of contacting and booking, to the how comfortable she makes you feel, you cannot go wrong. Every photo is amazing.
Samantha was AMAZING! She was able to accommodate our elopement last minute which we were so grateful for! She not only helped guide us on how to pose, but made us feel so comfortable through out the whole process of being in front of the camera. (which was such a blessing since we are both awkward and dislike getting our photos taken haha) She even got our photos back to us SO quick! Her eye for photography and editing style, is seriously a blend of perfection. These photos are everything we hoped for and more. We will forever be thankful for the opportunity of having Samantha shoot our elopement :)
Sam was absolutely perfect! We hired her for our Las Vegas wedding day photo session February 25, 2021. She was cool, prompt, professional and a true artist!! She doesn’t just take pictures, she captures moments and is clearly passionate about her work. Check out her website: https://www.samanthajacobphotography.com/ My wife and I were blown away! Thanks Sam!!

Sam was so great from start to finish! We booked our wedding about a week in advance. She arrived on time and took the best pictures of our wedding that showed off our friends and family, and most importantly the sacrament of our wedding. We will treasure these photos and the positive experience she gave us from capturing our day. She took special care to personally understand us, our family and the things we valued about memorializing on our wedding day.
Samantha was friendly, understanding, and patient. She’s willing to walk the extra mile for a better picture. I guess in our case, she was willing to hike the extra mile. She made us feel comfortable the whole entire time. The shots turned out amazing! We highly recommend her!!
Samantha was wonderful to work with! She made us feel very comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera. She was on time, professional and responded to all messages quickly. We were also unfamiliar with the area and she arrived early to scout multiple locations to find the right fit. We are so happy with how our pictures turned out.
Sam was very professional and made my brother's wedding experience very personal and special. She took excellent photos and captured expressions and emotions from family and friends, that we will be able to cherish for a lifetime. She was flexible, prompt, and shared great communication before, during and after the wedding. I would definitely recommend her!!!
Sam was so easy and fun to work with! Her laid back personality made everyone feel really comfortable - which was important to us because we never get professional photos taken. They turned out amazing!!! SO happy I chose Sam to capture our big day. She is our photographer for LIFE! Family photos, baby photos (soon) you name it!
OMG I could talk about Sam allllll day! I was a nervous nelly for my Las Vegas boudoir shoot and Sam came in with bottles in hand and sat down and started chatting like we’ve been friends for years. Honestly breaking that ice made the difference between photos I love and photos I’m embarrassed by; comfort is key. Sam put me at ease. This was my first shoot but sam made me feel like I’ve done it all before. Highly recommend and would use her services again 🥰
Sam wasn’t only flexible and easy going, she helped me choose what location to do photos and was there before we arrived scouting out the perfect spots! When COVID hit she was responsive and understanding, so when we decided to have a teeny wedding with a short notice she was right there for it. I would love to work with Sam again!
I hired Samantha for a boudoir shoot as a gift to my girlfriend. This was something I had never done before and was a little nervous/anxious about the shoot. I wanted to make it happen though because I knew my girlfriend would love the images as a gift for our anniversary. Samantha made me feel comfortable during the shoot by throwing on some awesome jams, connecting with me on a personal level by genuinely getting to know me and directing me on how to pose. Our session was filled with laughs and just an amazing flow of creative energy.
Samantha delivered my images to me in a timely manner as promised. Her creative touch to the images came out so awesome! I've never been a fan of getting my picture taken but I am so in love with how the images came out and overall my experience with Samantha. I will be booking her again and highly recommend her!
Sam was an absolute joy to work with. Not only did our wedding pictures turn out utterly stunning, it was so fun to take them. Our wedding was outside in the wilderness on a ridiculously hot day and Sam was running around and climbing rocks to get the perfect shots. You could see her completely covered in sweat and working her a** off for us. I was so impressed! If you are looking for cool, sexy, edgy, natural shots Sam is your girl. She is the best photographer and you NEED her for your wedding.
