My Humble Beginnings...
I got my first camera when I turned 16, and fr om then on it was rare to find me without it on hand. I forced impromptu photo shoots with friends, took pictures of everything and everyone that I could, and when it came time for graduation, I knew my path was headed towards making a career out of my passion for photography.
I attended the Hallmark Institute of Photography in Massachusetts, and graduated in 2010. After graduating I moved to NYC to intern with Studio D in Hearst Tower, wh ere I worked on accounts like Cosmopolitan, Elle, and the Food Network, all while sleeping on an air mattress in a 3-bedroom apartment shared by 6 people, a dog and a bird– it doesn’t get more NYC than that!

10 Reviews for Samantha Turco
Samantha was down for any location, added in her suggestions, and made me feel excited from the get go. Our downtown Worcester engagement shoot was EVERYTHING - fun, relaxed, and she sure knew how to hype up my outfit choices. She was open to poses and made us feel completely comfortable. It was so nice to be able to get the feel of how things would go prior to our wedding.
Leading up to our wedding we spoke multiple times, she laid out details, asked for a shot list of everything we were looking for and communicated frequently which eased a lot of wedding planning stress. The day of our wedding was pure magic in every way and Samantha was no exception. She was there for me in more ways than I expected a photographer to be. She wiped my makeup when I cried, fixed my veil and train, communicated with all the other vendors throughout the day, and ALWAYS had a smile on her face and great energy. Before she left for the night I already had a handful of beautiful edited wedding photos that she surprised us with.
AND THE PICTURES! Wow. I genuinely spent so long scrolling through our album that I started to have wrist pain (LOL). The way that she edits shows her dedication, her craft, her passion and every picture has LIFE that makes it feel like you are truly reliving the day. There is not one photo I can think of that she didn't capture- she got every detail. I could write a novel on the excitement I had working with her. I would recommend her 10 out of 10 times (even though I want to hog her all to myself). Samantha you are incredible as a person and behind the lens and I can't thank you enough for capturing our best day ever.
