Escoger a Sam como fotógrafo de tu boda es escoger también a una persona maravillosa que va a formar parte de tu vida para siempre.

El trabajo de Sam es increíble, natural y relajado. Sabe capturar momentos que son invisibles para el resto, y captura la esencia de cada gesto, reflejando las emociones y la energía de un día tan especial. Ese es su trabajo y su gran talento, pero lo que le hace realmente diferente es lo gran persona que es y la manera que tiene de integrarse y de entrar en ese día como si fuese uno más de la familia.
Al menos así lo sentimos tanto nosotros como nuestros padres y amigos y ponemos la mano en el fuego para asegurar que así lo han sentido también todos y cada uno de los novios que han vivido sus bodas con él.

Sam superó todas nuestras expectativas. desde el primer contacto se mostró super cercano, daba la impresión de siempre haber sido amigos lo cual influyó enormemente en sentirnos cómodos para las fotos de la preboda y de la boda.
Fotos espectaculares, edición muy sutil, tiene muy buen gusto e ideas increíbles que hacen que las fotos finales sean todas para enmarcar.
También es un muy detallista y se  encargó de fotografiar detalles que hasta a nosotros nos pasaron desapercibidos. Un máquina, no se le escapa nada.
Al dia siguiente a la boda ya nos mandó un trailer con algunas fotos y para el total también fue muy rápido.
Lo dicho, un 10 en todo, lo recomendaré a todos mis amigos y conocidos.
Me quito el sombrero contigo Sam!!!

Sam es otro nivel de fotógrafo. Te acompaña, se preocupa de que todo salga perfecto. Le elegimos para nuestra boda porque nos encanta su estilo: es capaz de capturar cada instante, cada emoción, la vibra del momento. No le ves, pasa desapercibido, pero está ahí para documentar todo lo vivido y te permite guardarlo para siempre, rememorando cada momento a través de cada foto. Además no tiene prisa, se adaptó a nosotros en tiempos y forma durante toda la boda. 100% recomendado.

Sam photographed our wedding on the beautiful Llyn Peninsula, North Wales UK.
We are totally blown away by his photography.  He was fully present from start to finish but so discreet in his approach. Sam captured the emotion of both ourselves and our guests in a way no one else could. He captured documentary style, the journey of our special Weekend from start to finish, with no details missed. Sams portraits, natural images, close ups and landscapes are unique and magical. Sam can capture beauty in the most subtle moment. Thank you Sam for creating an album of memories we will treasure for ever.

Me and my now husband couldn't be luckier to have a chance be photographed by Sam, and meet such a nice person in one. We are really grateful he was available during his travel to Portugal and he took numbers of stunning wedding pictures, just as for Pinterest, at absolutely amazing landscape. It was perfect combination. Thank you so much for finding such incredible place to capture such lovely pictures. Sam has have definitely done some research before the photoshoot. It was fun, relaxed, and just enjoyable time with a person that makes you feel as meeting some an old friend - he is really easy-going, symphatetic and relaxed. Glad to meet him   . We didn't even know there is such an amazing view for the beach Praia da Ursa, despite we are the locals here in Portugal. We are glad for that adventure. It just gave an extra credit to this experience - adventurous trip to this fascinating place!
Sam pictures his images before, see beyond and gives its own character to it. His picture keeps naturality, emotion, cinematography and personality. We just love them. Thousands thanks and many many happy customers to you. Well deserved! ️️

I fell in love with Sam’s work and reached out to him for our wedding. His photos are impeccable, but Sam the person is even better. It was the perfect fit for our bilingual wedding. Unfortunately, the availability of our venue and Sam’s didn’t line up, but even after we came to that realization, he continued to offer help with other vendors and checked in. I can’t recommend Sam enough! I may have to plan another big event just to be able to hire him :)

Sam is the best photographer you can have for your wedding.
We were lucky to have Sam photographing out special day. Apart from being extremely human and kind person, his photos all reflect real moments in the most beautiful way, unlike typical staged photos from many photographers in Spain.

I feel super lucky to find him one day and to have these warm memories forever.
