Wow, there is so much we could say about choosing Rick and his wife Liz to capture our day. Filled with so much passion for what they do, they kept the focus on us and from beginning to end I had no doubt they were capturing moments we would look back on forever.
When choosing a photographer we were hesitant because we weren’t sure if there was a perfect fit for us. My husband is shy in front of a camera and having shot weddings myself, I wanted to make sure whoever we chose was flexible and fun. Extremely happy to say Rick and Liz were our perfect match. Incredibly warm to our friends and family, everything was smooth beginning to end. Our photos are beyond what I ever imagined, crisp and creative but showcased who we TRULY are. Incredibly fast turn around and I love how we are able to choose our favorite raw files to be edited, keeps the process very personal! Rick even surprised us with smoke bombs for our Bride/Groom shots! Never thought we would get to do that and so glad we did. Thank you thank you thank you Samos Photography!

We cannot say enough about Rick and Liz! We stumbled upon Rick when beginning our wedding planning journey (pre covid) and I couldn’t imagine having anyone else capture our perfect day and being apart of this crazy process to get married. He was extremely attentive, energetic & beyond creative. As people who aren’t in love with the idea of being in front of a camera, Rick and Liz made us feel so confident and comfortable, capturing the pure energy of who we are as a couple. We had an absolute BLAST with them. If you are questioning who to go with for your photography and videography, look no further. Their work is absolutely unmatchable. These two are the absolute best of the best, you won’t find a better dynamic duo.

We could not be happier and we recommend Samos Photography to all.

Rick was accommodating and adjusted his schedule for us as well as still made sure we had enough pictures from our wedding day not to mention the quality of his pictures are amazing!! We are so thankful to have had Rick apart of our special day for being so dedicated, hardworking and willing to go the extra mile to make sure we still had a special day!

Rick Samos was shot our wedding photos, and we could not be more impressed with the quality of the photos and his professionalism. Rick was open to all our suggestions and made sure the photos we wanted got shot, despite the unfavorable me weather conditions. He’s able to make each photo look beautiful and natural under any circumstance and at any place. Rick gives you plenty of suggestions for photo poses that end up looking stunning! Both of our families and all our friends loved the photos. Rick sends the edited photos in a very timely manner, and gives you the option to edit any of the raw footage. Rick is incredibly flexible and we’ll have beautiful memories of our special day forever.

In summary, book this photographer!!! We worked with Rick for our engagement and wedding photos and they all turned out absolutely stunning. I cannot recommend him enough for his professionalism, creativity, and beautiful photography. He made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. My family and I have been looking at the photos daily since the wedding because we can't get over how perfectly they captured the day. We are thrilled to be working with him again next summer for my sister's wedding.

I came across Samos Photography on Instagram from a friend that I followed. She had her wedding pictures done by him and honestly in that moment I fell in love with his work. Over the months, I kept observing his work and I can say I knew he was the one to take my engagement pictures. I reached out to him and gave him an idea of what I wanted done. He knew exactly what I wanted and did it perfect.
