Choosing a photographer for our Indian engagement and wedding was one of the most important decisions we made--these are once-in-a-lifetime moments, and we wanted someone who could truly capture the emotion, the color, and the cultural significance of every detail. Hiring Aman and his team was easily one of the best choices of our entire wedding journey. From the very first conversation, their professionalism and warmth made us feel completely at ease. They took the time to understand our vision, our traditions, and what mattered most to us. On the engagement shoot, they instantly made us feel comfortable in front of the camera--every shot felt natural, vibrant, and authentically us. Aman did a great job of capturing the essence of our love - Downtown Los Angeles and sports. But it was during the wedding that Aman and his team truly amazed us. Indian weddings can be beautifully chaotic, emotional, and fast-moving, with countless ceremonies and family moments happening all at once. They managed to capture everything: the intimate glance during our first look, the tearful blessings, the intricate details of our outfits and décor, and the burst of energy on the dance floor. Their eye for lighting, composition, and candid emotion is extraordinary. The final gallery that was sent to us left us speechless. Each photo feels like a piece of art. The colors are rich and true to life, the emotions are raw and unfiltered, and the storytelling is so powerful that we can relive every moment just by flipping through our album. Our families have not stopped talking about how talented and kind they were throughout every event. If you want a photographer who not only understands the significance of Indian weddings but elevates them into timeless, cinematic memories, Aman is the one. We are beyond grateful--they didn't just take photos; they preserved memories we'll cherish forever. Absolutely, wholeheartedly recommend. read more

I love nothing but love for them. The whole team was amazing. I couldn't have asked for a better photographer for our big day. Thank you for everything. read more

Samson Productions has helped me capture the dream wedding I always dreamt of! I started working with Samson months before the wedding week for our engagement shoot. Amaan was so kind enough to do our photo shoot at two locations in Los Angeles that we always wanted to have a shoot at. With his exceptional videography and photography skills, the engagement shoot felt like a scene from a movie romantic movie. Throughout our wedding week, the whole Sampson team was punctual, on top of every event, every detail one can think of. The team was up all nights making their extraordinary plans to capture the best!! The same day edit which was played at our reception event was the cherry on top! I was so grateful to have worked with Samson, and receive their amazing services. They made my wedding the most memorable and I cant thank them enough!!! I have worked with many photographers in the past, but Samson is definitely the best, and I highly recommend them!!! Thanks Amaan!!! read more

I've been dreaming about hiring Samson for my wedding since I was in high school! Their quality and care for photos has been truly exceptional. I finally got to work with them this past thanksgiving for my wedding events. Their team was very accommodating to each detail and even with the changes in venues and cancellation in one of my events -- Shahan was able to move things around in a swift to a future date and made things really flexible for us. I know there are many photographers and videographers in SoCal now that are exceptional, but what makes Samson better is that they capture every details like things you wouldn't think need to be photographed or recorded. They truly create a memory book for you to look back too and relive your events by. My entire family and friends seeing the pictures and video all said this was phenomenal and everyone was pictured and no detail was missed. You pay for quality and an amazing team people who made my nervous self really comfortable and told us how to pose etc. Thank you guys for making my events so beautiful! I can't wait to work with you guys for my reception after COVID. read more

I have worked with Samson more than once and will go back for any pictures/videos I ever want. The whole team is truly incredible, they were punctual each day during my wedding event, accommodating with the changes we had to make to the wedding due to the pandemic, got everything done in a timely manner and they wedding short film was SO BEAUTIFUL! Everything from the cuts to the music were so perfect, I couldn't find anything to change even if I tried! The pictures were AMAZING! Even the relatives who are extremely particular about photos and are almost never fully satisfied with photographers were shocked at how wonderful the pics were and the moments captured! read more

My wife Zahra and I had a wonderful experience working with Samson Productions from start to finish. Our conversations began months before the wedding, and didn't end until after our wedding trailer was edited and produced to our liking. They really care about their quality of work and make sure their final product is perfect. I have never seen such high quality service in the wedding photo and video industry. All of their staff from top to bottom are hard working, caring, and genuine people. They were always available, and extremely helpful every step of the way during our events. Special THANK YOU to Aman, Camilo, and Jose. I would highly recommend them for any and all events you are thinking of putting on. I would recommend calling them early, as they are booked many months out at any given time of year. read more

We can't say enough about Aman and his team. They covered our 5-day wedding last May and went above and beyond at every event. They captured some our most favorite memories! His whole team was so patient with us, and even stayed past the agreed on hours. Aman and his team also do something called "Projection Mapping," and when we saw what types of images he could project, we knew that we wanted to use that technology as part of our reception stage backdrop. On the day of, walking into the reception hall, we were amazed at how beautiful it looked! We were all concerned with the time constraints as the hall had a prior event, but Aman and his team made it happen! When we received links to our wedding photos, we were so happy with how the professional photos turned out! Even better, he provides you with a wedding album along with 2 parent albums as part of the package. You always hear how much people spend on their photos, and albums are sometimes not even included! We didn't have to worry about that with Aman. Our wedding videos also turned out amazing and Aman was so easy to work with when we wanted to make some changes! We are so glad we went with Samson - we have great memories to always look back on! read more

Aman and his entire team are AMAZING!! We are so happy with our decision to have them cover our wedding. They not only exceeded our expectations but went above and beyond to make our special day the most memorable. Aman was in constant communication with me and my family before, during, and after all our wedding extravaganza. Before the wedding, he personally came out to see the venue to ensure he can provide us with flawless coverage. On our wedding day, he and his entire team were so fun and easy to work with. And while we are still in the process of finalizing our photos and video, what we have received in terms of "raw" coverage (photos, video, and highlights) is simply amazing!! I highly recommend them not only for photo and video, but ESPECIALLY for LED drapes/screen and live video!! It really added that extra touch to further enhance our wedding and left all guests spellbound! The photo booth they put together was also a really fun touch for our guests. Aman is a perfectionist who pays attention to every small detail in his craft. He and his team created the wow factor in our wedding and we are forever grateful for their exceptional teamwork! If it's quality you're looking for, I highly recommend Samson Productions! read more

We found Shahan through yelp and couldn't have been more grateful. Samson productions photographed my brother's wedding last month and they were always on top of everything. They truly cared and communicated very well with what I needed. We even discussed time frames and locations. They made me feel 100% comfortable and took on all my stress. These people are amazing I highly recommend their services! read more

Thank you so much for the wonderful job Samson Productions did at our wedding. The pictures they took are just perfect. We have received so many compliments and we love them. Mr. Aman Mohammed was absolutely wonderful to work with. Not only is his work absolutely stunning, he is such a fun person to work with, and extremely flexible and accommodating. We did an engagement session with him before our wedding day, and the engagement album we received is absolutely beautiful. On our wedding events, Carlos and Camilo were so much fun to work with. Unobtrusive and never in the way, yet they somehow managed to capture the best day of our lives on pictures and film just the way we remembered it. One of the best parts of the entire wedding planning process was working with Mr. Aman Mohammed and his team, and we would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a photographer and videographer!! Thank you for helping to make our wedding so special. We will cherish it forever! Regards, Aman & Steve read more

We booked Samson for our wedding events and everything came out amazing. The videos and album were crafted beautifully. The team was very understanding and accommodating. Definitely will use them for any future events! read more

The team at Samson Productions is amazing and great to work with. They go out of their way to make sure every detail is captured and present it so beautifully.. I personally felt in love with their work about 6 years ago when my captured one of my best friends wedding at the Ritz-Carlton in Laguna beach and Fairmont in Newport Beach. That day I told myself that I will use them for my wedding and when my husband proposed and we started planning our wedding, I just contacted Aman, the owner of Samson Productions and confirmed the dates. He was so kind that he didn't even ask us to visit him or request deposit and just created a contract to our expectations.. Everyone says they are pricey but it's worth the price, after all it's a beautiful memory that will stay w you forever. The Samson team make all our photo shots, our wedding in Las Vegas, our traditional wedding in Buena Park and reception on the Yacht in Newport Beach so painless and stress free and the outcome was absolutely beautiful. We didn't spend any time explaining to them what we would like captured and they kept their work to perfection. I already know 4 couples, cousins and friends, who have used Samson in the last 3 years.. We both are very satisfied with the entire team of Samson and highly recommend them.. You will love their photos and videos and specially albums.. read more

Best backdrop ever! Shahan lived up to my expectations! He had an amazing LED backdrop and everyone was so impressed! Also Jose was great to work with for my same day edit! Highly recommended read more

I used samson productions for my wedding this year! Not only did they provide me with my pictures and videos in a timely manner but they were not upset or offended when I asked for a few edits... they made the changes I asked for and returned the video to me promptly... the samson production team did my wedding, two of my sisters weddings, and 75% of my friends weddings and I have heard nothing but great things about them! The team makes sure you are comfortable and are amazing at getting the perfect candid shots! They are by far one of the best choices I made when it came to my wedding! Also it doesn't hurt that they have all of the newest technology like projection mapping, camera drones, and giant LED backdrops! After dealing with samson for my own nuptials I will continue to recommended them to everyone I know! read more

We have used Samson Productions for all our family events including my wedding 14yrs who! Their professionalism, attention to detail and quality is by far one of the best in town! Highly recommend Samson Production! read more

Samson Productions was introduced to us through our event manager for our wedding. They were very professional, timely and also communicated well over emails and calls. We received our album last week and it was really stunning, everyone liked the cover page and the quality of the photos. We are very happy and highly recommend them. read more

Shahan and the team really came through us in our special day!! Shahan was very helpful in every step.

We did not like our wedding video. It looks like they rushed through the editing, despite the fact that it took them over 3 months after we made the final payment to finish it. I had to email them at least 3 times to even get a response. And they didn't even bother to get our input on the background music for the highlights video, I absolutely hate the song they chose. At this point, I don't care to ask them to change it because the video itself is just terrible. it's way too fast paced, even though there are some parts that are meant to be slow. I found them on instagram, and their videos on instagram looked nice, but I think they only care for their clients who are "instagram famous". Also in the contract, it states that I am to get 2 DVDs and the raw footage. I only got a link to the highlights video, and full edited video on Vimeo. Again, my wedding video is terrible, I am not even sure I care enough to ask. read more

I highly recommend their services. Shahan and his team are amazing at what they do. Not only did they make myself and my wife extremely comfortable in front of the camera, they also delivered our footage before the deadline. Thank you Samson. You guys are the best! read more

Samson productions helped us throughout our wedding planning. Their strong work ethic and exceptional approachability transformed our wedding and their hard work made our wedding fun to plan. Thank you so much for everything you have done for us! read more

I was first introduced to Samson Pro after watching a friend of a friend's highlight video years ago. I remember I watched that highlight video over and over again because I thought all the memories were captured so perfectly! When it came time for my own wedding planning, Samson was one of the first vendors I contacted to get a quote. Although they seem pricey, they include a lot of great things in their package such a photo albums, parent albums, usbs, highlight video, engagement photo shoots, flights, accommodations, etc. I was impressed with how Aman (the main contact person for Samson) replied quickly and with an all inclusive quote plus tax (you will find that a lot of vendors fail to include all the small details in the initial quote they give you). After a lot of research, my husband and I decided they were our top choice! Here's a nice twist for you: Samson Pro is located in California, my husband is from Ohio and I am from South Carolina. Our wedding events were to be captured in BOTH SC AND OH! When explaining all the details to Aman, I made sure I was very thorough so there wasn't any confusion. Aman handled all of our conversations professionally and with much ease, constantly assuring me that they will have all of it covered and to sit back and relax. Samson Pro is strategic in how they handle multiple events on multiple days. They work with a lot of photographers and videographers all across the US to make sure all bases are covered, which we really appreciated. We especially LOVED working with Chris and Camilo! Shout out to them! They are our absolute favorite photographer and videographer from the Samson team. They have tons of experience and know exactly what they are doing. They are so personable and fun to have around. My husband and I truly enjoyed having them capture a majority of our events. PHOTO: The turn-around time for our photos only took a few weeks, it was super quick! I was shocked at how quickly Samson captured and sent over all of our pictures for us to begin viewing and making our final selection for our wedding album. The images were beautiful! The wedding albums turned out to be AMAZING. We've received so many compliments on how beautifully put together everything turned out. VIDEO: One of the things we really wanted at our wedding were Drone shots. One of the videographers had a drone, but because it was cold the morning of our wedding, the battery froze and the drone crashed and broke. So we weren't able to get the drone shots we originally had in mind. Aman worked with us though and had videographers go back to all the locations the day after to capture drone shots. At first I was angry... but I appreciated the effort put in by the team to make sure we had at least some aerial shots for our highlight video. When the first highlight video was presented to us, I am not going to lie, we were very disappointed because we felt it was rushed and didn't fit the vision my husband and I were hoping for. BUT I am pleased that Samson didn't give up on us (we are a pretty demanding and detail-oriented couple with high expectations lol). Every time I called or emailed Aman, he did what I asked until I was completely happy with the end result (it took us 5 tries to get it perfect). I absolutely Love our highlight video now. Take a look here: https://vimeo.com/257976332/99b61fedfd PROS: High quality images and video; all inclusive quote; works with photographers/videographers all across the US; organized; On time to events; quick turn-around time; willing to work with you as long as you continue to communicate your vision; puts in effort; will handle their own accommodations when traveling; no hidden fees; lots of experience with Desi/South Asian/Middle Eastern weddings; willing to be flexible with the schedule (because we all know Desi weddings don't always run smoothly!) CONS: If you're not willing to communicate what you want, your end result may look rushed; some of the crew Samson sent to events in SC and OH did not have experience with Indian weddings and needed more guidance which we weren't happy about; Drone battery may freeze the morning of your wedding shoot :( Overall, our family is very satisfied with Samson Pro, and I would recommend them to anyone who is detail-oriented, willing to clearly communicate your vision, and values high quality work. After all, these photos and videos are going to last you a LIFETIME. It's important to do your research and make the right choice. Samson was definitely the right choice for us. To the entire SamsonPro Team, THANK YOU! -Shelly & Manjinder read more

I have used Samson Productions for my wedding and I would DEFINITELY not use them again nor RECOMMEND them to anyone. I was researching for a reputable photographer and videographer when I came across a few of them. I did research just like anyone should with the COSTS vs WHAT YOU WILL BE GETTING. I had met with Aman and he seemed like a nice guy when I had talked to him. He went over the information and we made the decision to go with him based upon recommendations from others. We paid him in FULL and on time before our event was even over and paid him HALF of the amount months prior to our event. Aman was nice until after the event, when we were asking to see drafts and a preview of our pictures and video. There was ALWAYS an ISSUE at his end by him claiming that he is having "technical issues with his computer" and we would suffer. We would suffer by him not returning our e-mails in time or the revisions in timely fashion. I can understand that issues do happen, but treat your clients with RESPECT. It is not a lot to ask for. He would always say that he would get back to us and he would ONLY get back to you when it was convenient to him. I would have to say, Aman's communication skills are HORRIBLE hands down as well as giving respect to his clients. You will only be treated nice until he cashes all your checks, then the TRUE colors are revealed when it comes to you customizing your albums and video. He's rude and demeaning when you ask for things to be changed because "it takes too much time to do" and puts him behind. He doesn't do things right the first time, and rushes the product just to wash his hands from the project. He will not return your e-mails until you call him to follow-up. I would definitely NOT recommend him as he puts your job ALWAYS on the back burner because he's behind on other projects. There are soo many other photographers and videographers out there. Don't put yourself at a disadvantage by going with Samson for a once in a lifetime event. Also, you check out the experience that Fatima Parisa had with Samson as well. It is dated for 06/29/18. read more

The high quality and service of Aman and his team at Samson are incredible. Our family has always turned to Samson for all their wedding photography needs, and when it came time for my husband and I to choose a wedding photographer, it was a no-brainer to go with Samson. From being punctual and professional at every wedding event, to making sure they got all the beautiful shots that they needed, working with Samson was amazing and so seamless. They got great photo and video coverage of the wedding attendees, our family members, and our friends. On top of that, the photos from our couple's photo shoot were gorgeous. We were sooo incredibly happy with the high quality of the photos, album, and videography. The wedding albums they created for us and our parents were also so high-quality, extremely professional, and timeless. The albums and wedding videos really captured the highlights and essence of the events. They were so very responsive to all my requests to make changes and edits to the videos and photo album. I was so so happy with the all final products!!! I can't thank Samson and Aman enough for helping us capture all the beautiful memories of our big day! Thank you Samson!!! read more

Samson contacted us after finding out that we were dissatisfied with our end products asking us how they could make this up to us and how they could make it better. They were very prompt in responding and tried very hard to work with us to have a satisfied customer. They offered to reedit the entire video if we wanted or send us an enlargement photo frame of our choice from any of our wedding photos. They even offered us to send an additional album if we wanted. Finally, they offered to make this short 30 min movie reel of our mehndi and wedding combined, something new they started. We were pleased that they contacted us to help make things better since we were dissatisfied. We accepted the offer for an enlarged photo and 30 min short movie since they offered. They were prompt in delivery of these items. We appreciate that they offered those things above to try to make up for what happened originally. read more
