Hey y'all! - Samuel Stallard Photography


I'm a Berea, Kentucky wedding photographer who loves weddings & couples, film, & the occasional local restaurant. I've been photographing amazing weddings since 2013! I'm blessed with my wife Sara & my son Harrison. Together, we all make a pretty dang good team.

My approach

 

My photo style is light, but deep. You'll get a nostalgic feeling when you look at my work--even if it's not you in the portraits.


When I take a portrait, I try to channel that longing feeling that only comes from digging in those old albums that your grandparents had stored away. I believe that a great photograph shouldn't only capture the moment, but also evoke emotions and memories that will last a lifetime.

Sam is the absolute BEST. My husband and I couldn’t be happier with our experience. Not only did he capture our wedding day beautifully, but also our engagement session. Absolutely nailed it! Everything was so perfect down to the last detail.


To top it off, he was so thorough! Before the wedding, we sat down and mapped out exactly what we wanted captured on our wedding day. He was so patient with us as we went through each shot. He was also so knowledgeable and gave super helpful suggestions so that we could prioritize what we wanted to happen the day of the wedding.


The timeline the day of the wedding was an absolute breeze. He was on top of everything the entire day and he made sure it worked like a well-oiled machine. We couldn’t have done it without Sam!


I couldn’t rave enough about him. Patient, positive, punctual, he is truly the very best!
