"Sam has taken my photos multiple times and have gotten great results both times. Sam made sure to plan for the time of day and sunlight to get a really cool photo that I love. She was a great photographer to work with. She got some really great photos and I will gladly go to Sam when I need photos in the future. " - Rachel SP
"My family and I had such a positive experience with Samantha of SJDalton Photography. Samantha was very accommodating to our desire to keep the photo session even though there were some rain showers. She had some fun ideas that made for some great candids of us all laughing. I am impressed with the colors she captured of the beautiful Autumn leaves with a variety of shots of my family to choose from. I also appreciated how she captured my family and our personalities! I highly recommend her service for your photography." -Pamela J

"Our family booked Sam to take some family photos of us on our trip to NYC. We have only visited New York once before so weren’t familiar with locations/photographers but are so glad we sound Sam! She was extremely flexible with us, as time and the weather seemed to be against us the weekend we were in town. We also have two wild boys and were a little nervous on how we would capture those cute family moments but Sam made it happen! She truly found a way to let their personalities shine through the images she captured. We are planning on making this an annual trip for our family and look forward to working with Sam again!"

"We chose Samantha to take our elopment photos and she was simply AMAZING. Samantha took our simple NYC elopmemt and made us feel like superstars. She had wonderful suggestions and was a great listener when we made particular request. If you have any doubts about her lose them NOW because she is phenomenal at what she does. It didn't feel like we just paid someone to take our photos it felt more like we were with an old friend. She was very engaged with everyone and dealt with our craziness. Also, the turnaround for our photos being touched up was in a very timely manner. Of course when you're getting married there's alot going on but Samantha was truly a breath of fresh air. I will be definitely use her services again in the future and will refer her to anyone looking for a photographer."

"Samantha is an extremely talented photographer and a lovely person - it was an absolute pleasure to work with her. Samatha documented our wedding day for an elopement style New York wedding - she was so accommodating and flexible in capturing so many different types of shots from scenic background shots to big group photos with all the family. We were so pleased when the photos arrived. I have of course been eager to show everyone and we are thrilled at the quality of the photos that we will now always have to remember our special day."

Samantha is INCREDIBLE! She was so easy to work with, from communication to the shoot, she covered it all professionally and proficiently. I found her through a NYC Photographer’s Facebook group, and i’m so happy she reached out to me! Her prices are amazing compared to some others you’ll find in the city, for the same quality of work! Seriously couldn’t recommend her enough & I’ll definitely be booking for future shoots
