Samantha Donaldson Photography

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Samantha for a Branding Mini Session for my design business, and I'm totally blown away by her amazing service! As someone who usually gets camera shy, Sam was like a breath of fresh air. She made me feel so confident, calm, and comfortable right from the start, and her friendly and warm personality the whole experience a ton of fun!Even though it was a quick mini-session, Sam had a great collection of props and she had all these cool ideas for creative shots. I ended up with a bunch of stunning images that effortlessly capture both my personality and the essence of my business. Selecting my favourites proved to be an incredibly challenging task due to the abundance of beautiful and natural-looking photographs.I can't recommend Samantha enough if you're in need of branding photos or if you want to give your current images a refresh. I'm definitely going to book her again in the future, whether it's for my business or for personal photos. Thank you so much, Sam! I seriously can't stop smiling!

Sam is an absolute dream! Not only is she an incredibly talented photographer, but also very professional, welcoming and so easy to get along with. I'd recommend Sam in a heartbeat to anyone looking for a photographer to capture their wedding day. She did a wonderful job of of making us feel comfortable in front of the camera and captured so many beautiful, special moments. Her ability to scout out the best photo locations is just magic, we couldn't have asked for more!

I have used Samantha for my maternity and newborn photos for two children and multiple family shoots. She is my go-to family photographer as I love her natural, authentic style and she makes us feel so relaxed comfortable. They photos we get back are always so natural and authentic. Highly recommend!

Samantha was professional, warm and captured the most spectacular photos. She made both my partner and I feel relaxed. I can't recommend Sam enough - not only were we impressed by her work but we couldn't believe how quickly she got photos through to us - all of high quality and a true reflection of our happy day. Truly wonderful. Thanks Sam!

Sam was the photographer for our wedding back in November and we are so so happy we chose her! She did such a beautiful job at capturing all the different aspects of our day, and made us feel so comfortable. She was also so helpful and professional throughout the whole process from start to finish. We received our final prints in the post a few weeks back, so beautifully packaged. We really liked that Sam doesn’t take on too many weddings, so you really feel like she has the time to pay special attention to yours. Highly recommend Sam.Melissa and Fraser

I was lucky enough to work with Sam for branding photographs and interior shots of our house. Sam’s work is exceptional, her eye for composition and colour is both stylish and timeless and she’s an incredibly lovely and easy going person to work with too. Her photographs elevate and present you with a professional but also beautiful image. Check out her print shop too, her landscapes and still life prints are stunning!

I have been lucky enough to work on a few weddings with Sam, and also a beautiful styled shoot that Sam organised. I feel honoured to have worked alongside one of the best photographers in the wedding industry. Thank you Sam, incredible talent - you capture my work perfectly!

Samantha was organised, friendly and warm from the very start of the process. She manoeuvred unexpected COVID-19 disruptions seamlessly and delivered the most gorgeous photos that aligned perfectly with what me and my husband had envisioned. We love our elopement photos so much and are so happy that we chose Samantha!

Samantha did the most incredible job of capturing our wedding. We are both so happy with the final result, communication, attention to detail, and ability to connect with everyone so effortlessly on the day. Feeling very fortunate to have had her for our day.

Picking the photographer for your wedding day is such a daunting task, but we have absolutely no regrets in choosing Sam. On the day she was such a pro - she went with the flow to get those authentic moments, while also making sure to sneak us away for the best light of the day. The following day we already had a sneak peak and the full gallery was also delivered in record time.After having such a great experience Sam has recently done some newborn shots for us. We felt so at ease welcoming her into our home and once again blown away with the photos that we received.We can't recommend Sam enough, this will be the best decision you make in choosing your photographer for your special life moments :)
