Around that time my company was looking for a photographer to take full body pictures of our team for our new website. After working with Sam at SMPS, and receiving my headshots from him, I immediately knew I wanted him to work with our office. He was very prompt and kept the environment very easy and lighthearted. He helped everyone relax and made us all feel very comfortable. Our company had all of us do one standard pose and one "fun" pose. He worked with everyone to ensure that our personalities were capture in the shot and highlighted all of our different hobbies with a use of props. He was absolutely great to work with and I am so ecstatic with how the pictures came out. He made all of us look fantastic! I highly recommend working with Sam if you are in need of professional photos. You will not be disappointed!!

Sam is an excellent photographer and such a pleasure to work with. He was professional, polite, had…read moreeverything set up on time so he could help me make the most of our session. I called him for a last minute appointment and he was able to fit me in the same week as I am heading back to college next week. Even before the session, he emailed me once to confirm the session and another to remind me of the session that was happening the next morning. His emails were professional and helpful because they include tips on what to wear and payment information. The total session only took about 45 minutes and he had the shots retouched and completed by the end of the same day. I highly recommend him for any professional head shots you may need, he took my head shots for my LinkedIn page and they came out amazing. I am very pleased with my overall experience and result!

We had the pleasure of working with Andy Sandy for our wedding in Dec 2024 and we're so glad we…read morechose him to capture our day. From our first interaction to receiving the final gallery, Andy was professional, easy to communicate with, and incredibly thoughtful in his approach. On the day of the wedding, Andy showed up early, was calm and collected throughout, and made us feel totally at ease in front of the camera. He struck the perfect balance between giving just enough direction and letting moments unfold naturally. He was really great when it came to the family photos and helped capture some great moments with our little nieces and nephews. The photos turned out beautifully--crisp, vibrant, and full of life.

His eye for detail and composition is truly impressive, and we're so grateful to have such a meaningful record of the day.

Prior to the event, I had made it clear that although we wanted some couple photos, both me and my husband aren't the most comfortable with long photoshoots with posed photos, and that during the reception we wanted to feel fully present and not interrupted for any photos. He delivered spectacularly on both requests! We did a short photoshoot on a beach near our venue in Mill Valley and I genuinely love every photo from that. During the reception, he was excellent at blending into the background, capturing everything and being easy to flag down if I wanted any group photos. I absolutely loved how the photos turned out, especially the candids. The colour grading of the photos were also beautiful and exactly what I was looking for!

He gave me awesome tips for the day of the shoot that I would have NEVER thought of (outfit ideas, etc.), and he was so collaborative and honest with his feedback during the session. I felt safe that he was really and truly trying to get the best shot possible in regards to color choices against my skin, glasses vs. no glasses, stuff I don't ever think about and can't really see as the person in the frame. During the session he let me see previews, explained everything he was doing, and really made me feel a part of the process. He got me giggling and took an AMAZING shot of my dorky laugh, which he edited and let me keep because he's a Super Sweet Amazingpants McGee. I've gotten compliments already on my fresh headshot; no stuffy corporate looks here. He's all about human, genuine, professional images. I can't thank him enough for that; stuffy isn't my bag, and he totally gets it. Why are you still reading this?! Go schedule a session!! :)

My cropped out home photos that I'd been using were clearly not going to cut it. In a panic I scoured the internet and came across Brian's work.

The shoot itself was a lot of fun, and it really felt like we we collaborating together to get the perfect headshot. His photos were instantly loaded up onto a computer screen so we could scroll through and tag the good ones together and change looks and outfits. Brian made me feel very relaxed and comfortable. After the session was over, he worked on a very tight timeline to get me the processed photos before my deadline. Attached are a couple of the final results - my badass bitch look, and my more approachable look. I couldn't be happier with them!

If this is what he could do for one picture in such little time, I can only imagine what he could do for a bigger event, such as a wedding. Thanks Christopher!
