Hi, I'm Sam 👋
Friendly
Down to Earth
Easy Going
"Sam is extremely lovely, polite and puts you at ease instantly. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better photographer."
I'm Yorkshire based storyteller and photographer. You'll often find me drinking Yorkshire tea, wearing flat caps, and watching cricket - typical Yorkshireman some might say. My ethos is that your wedding photographer should not dominate your wedding day. My bet is that you don't want to spend hours posing for photographs, instead preferring to enjoy your day and spend the time with your nearest and dearest.

Sam Chipman Full Description
I'm all about storytelling, capturing those candid and real moments. The tears, the laughter, the joy, the tenderness. The little moments that you do not see in what can be a whirlwind of a day. Your story captured in that moment and preserved forever for you to look back on. I'm Yorkshire based, God's Own Country. I regularly shoot in Leeds, York, Harrogate, Ilkley and elsewhere in the surrounding areas, but I am happy to travel throughout the UK, and would love to shoot destination weddings should you be getting married abroad.

Sam MADE our day!!
So we’ve never really been a couple that takes many photos together, we literally had about 20 pictures in our 10 years together! But we do like to look back at memories, so right from the start we knew we needed a photographer that made us feel comfortable throughout. After our first consultation with Sam we knew he was exactly what we wanted & his approach to everything made us feel at ease from the beginning! On the lead up to the day Sam made sure to check in with us and helped us ensure we had sorted our other suppliers too and that everything was going to plan, we couldn’t ask for more at this stage! Then the big day arrived and honestly Sam felt like an extended member of the family & we even had people ask us on the day if he was one of our friends as we were that comfortable even with the ‘posey’ photos!! We can’t rate Sam enough you made our big day so much more than we could have ever imagined! Thank you!

We would 100% recommend Sam
We would 100% recommend Sam, he documented our wedding day perfectly. We had meetings with him before the day to discuss exactly what we were hoping for and he didn't disappoint on the day. He slipped into the background so people hardly even noticed he was there, which was exactly what we'd asked for, and he still managed to catch so many brilliant photos, he was always in the right place at the right time. Sam is really easy to talk to, my wife and I were both nervous about being in front of t

looking for a photographer- this is your man
Sam was one of the first suppliers that we booked for our wedding and we are SO glad we did. From our first meeting to saying goodbye the night of our wedding, Sam was great. His communication throughout, the actual package for our wedding (where Sam brought a fantastic 2nd photographer!) to our pre-wedding shoot- there was nothing too much trouble. If you are looking for a photographer- this is your man.

We could not have hoped for a better photographer
We could not have hoped for a better photographer for our wedding than Sam! Not only is his work fantastic and thoroughly professional, he was also a joy to interact with from the very first time my wife, Marissa, and I got in touch with him. Sam, true to his word, was never intrusive on the day and with his personable interactions with our guests was very much a guest in his own right, which is what we wanted. Marissa and I hoped for candid, ‘taken-in-the-moment’ shots of the day

We cannot recommend him highly enough
Well what can I say?...Sam was Brilliant!! When looking for a wedding photographer we found it quite challenging as being an older couple, we were very conscious of how we would come across and we were very nervous in front of the camera. From the moment of clicking that zoom button we knew we were in good hands! Sam was very warm and his cheeky chappy persona really put as ease, it was as if we had known him for years.
