“Sam!!!! We are crying!!! We absolutely LOVE our sneak peak! Thank you so much for sending these over SO quickly. And thank you for just looking after us all day, we are so grateful for the way you really put us first and was making sure all day that we were OK and having a good time. It was so lovely to have you a part of our wedding. Mitch and I are usually SO SO awkward in photos and never know what to do but we just felt so happy and at ease with you and I think it really shows in all your shots. Thank you!!!”

“We have been totally consumed by going through, sharing & downloading your amazing photos! Can't even begin to explain how much we all love the photos - they just capture the vibe & emotions of the day so perfectly and I especially love how candid and natural they are. We honestly couldn't have dreamt of better wedding photos! Thank you so much for your calm nature on the day and for all of your work in editing & creating our gallery”

“We are blown away with the shots. We absolutely love them and are so so happy with them all. We love how you have left us all looking as natural as possible and captured the little, authentic, in-between moments, that was really important to us. Thank you so much again for braving the rain, wind and crazy driving conditions to get to the South Coast, we still can't believe we got smashed with the weather event of the year on our Wedding Day. It's an absolute credit to you as an artist and photographer that you were still able to capture such magical shots with the conditions we had. Thank you a million, we can't wait to get them printed and placed on the walls of our home. We a truly in love with the moments you captured. Thank you so much being there on the day with us”

"Sam was an absolute dream to work with. Her photos are so gorgeous, and captured all the emotion and fun of our wedding day so beautifully. We’ve been able to relive the day all over again through the photos - including some moments which we actually missed ourselves! Sam made us feel so comfortable the entire day. When my husband and I went off with Sam for our photoshoot after the ceremony and before the reception, it felt more like some quiet and intimate time away from guests than an actual photoshoot, yet the photos are stunning. We couldn’t recommend Sam more, and will definitely be working with Sam again for any major life milestones.”
— Gabby & Rob
"We just got connected to good wifi and the photos are fucking phenomenal!! We both literally cried. Beyond amazing Sam!! Cannot thank you enough!! The ones of us both getting ready in the morning are stunning and you captured all the emotions of the ceremony! The bridal party shots are perfect too, so natural and candid. All the photos feel really authentic which is exactly what we wanted. The authenticity and candidness of all the photos are amazing, and we were so happy that we had you there to capture the day. Thank you again so much for being a part of the day, you have been so fantastic throughout this entire process (including the 2 year lead up) and we’re incredibly grateful to have found you!"
— Zoe & James
“It was such a beautiful and exciting surprise to receive the sneak peak whilst we were still on our honeymoon :) We sat down over a glass of limoncello and reminisced about our amazing day! The photos couldn’t have been more perfect and I can’t wait to go through them and put our albums together. You were absolutely right that the overcast day would translate so well in pictures! Secondly, thank you for being so patient and helpful on the day! You are so warm and kind, and extremely talented. You made us feel so relaxed (even though we are both a bit awkward and camera shy!) so THANK YOU”
— Lucy & Ben
"We were also very lucky to find sam riles, our photographer, through a friend who also used sam’s services. she was so easy to work with, no fuss, made sure i got everything in my shot list, even when i wasn’t paying attention. i hardly knew she was there snapping away, which is exactly what evan and i wanted - more candid, caught in the moment shots. i loved her final colouring too so I’d recommend her to anyone looking!"
— Sophie & Evan
"Just wanted to say a huge thank you for your amazing work on our wedding day. You made us both feel really comfortable and special and are genuinely just lovely and cool to hang out with - an added bonus. We had an awesome day and are so happy that it will be documented by such an awesome and talented chick. Thanks again"
