About Golden Hour Images
Golden Hour Images
Since 2013, I’ve been capturing love stories in a way that’s timeless, authentic, and uniquely yours. Whether it’s a quiet elopement or a big celebration, my approach blends classic elegance with photojournalistic storytelling. More than photography, it's about building trust and celebrating love in all its beautiful forms—honoring every culture, story, and connection.
Featured: The Today Show + People Magazine + Bridal Guide + Love Stories TV + CBS. I tell everyone the same thing: “The only right way to do a wedding is your way.” As a 2022 bride with over 10 years of experience in the wedding industry, I believe it's essential to find someone who aligns with your vision and brings you comfort. I provide timeline planning and vision support planning, and I am happy to help with design and site visits. I provide affirming and inclusive services to all love. Your experience is my #1 priority. I’ll be your ultimate hype-woman and celebrate what makes you uniquely you—LLC and insured.

The Best Photographer!!
Samantha is seriously the best! She’s so easy to work with and always goes above and beyond. Our whole wedding party loved her and still talks about how fun she was to have around. On my wedding day, she felt like a friend, a photographer, and even a little bit like a wedding coordinator all at once. She was super professional but also really comforting, always checking in to make sure I was okay and not getting overwhelmed. I honestly can’t recommend her enough. And of course, her photos are gorgeous. I’m so grateful she was there to capture such a huge moment in my life. Now I’ll be able to look back over the years and show everyone all the amazing pictures she took of our big day.
Mrs.
Sam is so professional and truly just good at what she does, not only was she flexible with timing on meetings and engagement pictures but her communication was thorough and to the point She’s truly just a kind person and it shows she loves what she does You will not be making a bad choice if you choose Sam for your special day
Amazing
From the moment we booked Golden Hour Images for our wedding, their communication was perfect. They were incredibly detail-oriented, listening closely to our preferences and helping guide us through all the photo moments on our wedding day. Their amazing communication style put us at ease and allowed us to fully enjoy our special day, knowing they had everything under control. Golden Hour Images truly made our wedding day amazing with their professionalism, creativity, and personalized service. We couldn't be happier with the beautiful photos they captured that we will cherish forever.

I am so grateful I got to be part of your wedding and to capture moments you can hold onto forever. Thank you for taking the time to write this. 💛✨Amazing!!
From our very first phone call, Samantha made the process so easy and stress-free. She took the time to answer my questions and assure me that she had a plan to alleviate all of my worries throughout the day. She made every part of this so easy and she was always quick and honest with her communication. We absolutely love our wedding album!, and I can't recommend her highly enough!!
Response from vendor•Nov 21, 2025Sarianna, thank you so much for these kind words. It meant the world to walk through your day with you both, and I’m so grateful you trusted me to travel to you and photograph something so important. Hearing that you felt supported every step of the way is the greatest compliment. I’m thrilled you love your album, and I’m sending you both so much continued happiness!!
