Samantha O’Neal Photographer | Reviews

Samantha was the best photographer we could’ve asked for! She has such a warm personality and a great sense of humor; she immediately made us feel super comfortable and made engagement and wedding pictures a breeze. She was great at posing and directing us so we could get the best pictures possible. Just as important, all the pictures she took were absolutely stunning. Samantha was always on schedule and made sure to communicate everything so we knew what was going on. She returned our pictures faster than expected and kept me in the loop during her editing timeline. I can’t gush enough over how wonderful Samantha is and how fun and comfortable she was to work with, as well as how her beautiful her pictures are. I 100% recommend Samantha to any couples looking for a photographer!

Sam photographed our wedding and Vietnamese tea ceremony this past February (2022). My husband and I came in from out of town, and because of the pandemic weren't able to come in on an earlier occasion to do engagements or anything with Sam. She was able to quickly figure out how to communicate with us to get us to pose and do whatever she wanted from us. And we are NOT photogenic. But Sam was just super easy to get along with and an expert with posing, so we were able to get some AMAZING photos out of it. We also had a lot of family and family friends who insisted on playing photographer, but Sam kept her cool and was able to get incredible shots despite constantly getting shoved (literally) out of the way. Lastly, Sam was the only vendor to follow along with our request for all of our vendors to wear a mask throughout the day. Whatever your stance is on these things, I think this small action speaks a lot to how Sam was willing to go out of her way to make us comfortable and happy. Sam was by far one of our best choices in wedding planning, and I highly encourage you to choose her too!

Samantha was absolutely amazing! We loved everything about our experience and photos! My husband is not one for pictures but after working with her, he said “she’s hired for life”! Samantha is easy to work with, we laughed through a very windy engagement photo session with her and our wedding pictures were phenomenal. She is very easy to communicate with and is super flexible with scheduling.  You will not be disappointed with her!

Sam was absolutely AMAZING on our wedding day. Taking pictures is not always my favorite thing to do, but Sam takes all the stress away and does a beautiful job. Her upbeat personality was great for our wedding party, her second shooter worked great with the groom and groomsmen. She had our photos edited and sent back to us quickly. She captured our day perfectly. When I look at our pictures, it's like I'm reliving the day all over again. I can't say enough kind words about Sam's photography. You (hopefully) only get married once, so you want to make sure the pictures are captured by someone you trust. Look no further than Sam O'Neal!
