I started Sam Guerpo Photography because I’m passionate about serving families and couples! From large extended families to the couple that is on their baby moon! The family reunion because your family is celebrating a huge milestone (75th birthday or 50 year wedding anniversary) or the couple just getting away to get a break from the hustle and bustle of life! Since families and couples are my expertise, I know how to make a photoshoot enjoyable for all!

Here are five reasons you should book me for your Kona, Hawaii Photoshoot.

You’re Going to Have an Amazing Experience

You all are what makes me jump for joy as I get my camera ready.  I’m so passionate about having fun while working with families and couples.  When you book a shoot with me, I will guide you through the entire shoot.  We will capture a few of those traditional poses for grandma, and then we will have some fun and capture those candid interactions.  As a matter of fact, a photo session with me will have even the stubborn ones that don’t like having their picture taken saying, “that was fun!”

A Picture is Worth 1000 Words

If you’re visiting Kona, Hawaii, you’re going to want to remember it!  Whether you’re visiting as an adventure seeker or for a vacation filled with rest and relaxation, Hawaii will not disappoint.  You and your loved ones will remember the trip for a lifetime, so why not capture the experience in photo?  The memories will last a lifetime, and may even earn you some Instagram bragging rights.

Practice Makes Perfect

Because of my passion for photography, I have invested years of education and experience into perfecting my craft. I love connecting with my clients, getting them comfortable in front of my camera and making them laugh!  The skillset and experience I bring to the table will be sure to deliver some of the most remarkable photos you’ll look back on with reminiscing memories.

Preparation Time Is Never Wasted Time

From the time you contact me all the way to your photoshoot gallery delivery, I’m working to plan the perfect session for you.  I take the time to discover what your vision is for the session so I can bring it to life. I’ll help you with location, what to wear, props, and anything else we need to plan to make your session nothing less than perfect.

Don’t Just Take My Word For It

Over the years I have put smiles on faces and captured memorable moments for hundreds of families.  You can explore a lot of my work throughout samguerpo.com.  Additionally, here are some of the wonderful things our clients have had to say:

Sam is not only an amazing person, but an awesome photographer. She was on top of everything from the moment I reached out. She helped us with our outfit selection and even had a referral for a gorgeous lei/haku that complimented the outfits. The place we did the photos was extremely special, private, and perfect for sunset. We even got in the water at the end! The editing was great and turnaround time minimal. These pictures will be cherished for a lifetime! Mahalo Sam! – Tyler P, Google Review

My fiance and I used Sam for a photoshoot to celebrate our recent engagement. I had never booked a photographer before so I was a bit nervous and didn’t know what to expect. However, Sam was AMAZING. Not only did our pictures come out incredible, but she was also really friendly and personable which made the experience really fun and enjoyable! The whole process from making the reservation to receiving the photos was also really seamless and professional which is a huge plus.  If you are looking for a photographer in the Big Island/Kona area, definitely go with Sam! – Alix J., Google Review

Sam is such an incredible photographer!!!  I arranged a photo shoot with Sam for my daughter’s senior portraits.  Sam made it so easy to navigate through the whole process, comfortably and stress-free.  She always responded quickly…and if you don’t, she is so patient and understanding:) Sam is such a fun, friendly person, it was easy for my daughter to feel comfortable with her.  She gave my daughter direction and walked her through her poses which helped my daughter relax and feel less awkward.  The whole photo shoot flew by quickly.  It was a wonderful experience!  And the photos…absolutely amazing and beautiful!!!  The way Sam captured my daughter during the late afternoon setting of the sun is BREATHTAKING.  My daughter is having a hard time choosing her portrait photo…she wants them all! Sam, on behalf of my daughter and myself, it was truly a pleasure working with you, and THANK YOU!!! – Wendy S., Google Review
