About Klose Up Photography
Klose Up Photography
I’m Samantha, a fine art wedding photographer based in Santa Monica, capturing timeless, editorial imagery for couples across California, Cabo, Italy, France and beyond. With over a decade of experience, I bring gentle guidance and heartfelt storytelling to every celebration. My husband and I also offer seamless cinema for couples who want every moment artfully preserved, with seamless coverage and shared creative vision.
I feel things fiercely, and that connection is at the heart of everything I do. I’m deeply empathetic, nurturing, and fully present with every couple I work with. I don’t just show up to photograph a wedding, I’m there to hold space, calm nerves, and capture the soul of your story with intention and care. For couples wanting film, my husband offers cinema that beautifully complements the emotion and artistry of the day.

Samantha is the BEST!
I have now worked with her multiple times, and every experience has been amazing from start to finish. She is so responsive, professional, and not to mention - produces the most BEAUTIFUL work ever! All of my clients adore her, as do I ! We just did a beautiful wedding togther in Maui - can't wait to work with her again soon!
Professional and Talented Photographer
If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would!! Samantha at Klose Up Photography is truly one of a kind. From the moment she arrived, she brought the perfect mix of professionalism and playful energy that made everyone feel totally at ease. She gave just the right amount of direction to help us look our best, while still capturing those candid, real, in-the-moment shots that made the whole experience feel effortless and FUN. Her creativity is unmatched—she saw details we didn’t even notice and somehow made everything look like it was out of a magazine spread. The photos are STUNNING! Every single shot is bursting with life, color, emotion, and the tiniest thoughtful touches.
