Samson Photography

Last reviewed: August 12, 2026. Business status: Active.

Last reviewed: August 12, 2026. Samson Photography is a confirmed wedding-photography business whose current official website presents Samson and Kelsey Anne as a two-photographer team based on Nova Scotia’s South Shore. The site’s main regional phrasing is “Nova Scotia wedding photographers,” making that the appropriate focus for this updated Canada Wedding Guide profile rather than the legacy Toronto listing details.

The business describes its approach as candid, timeless and soulful, with an emphasis on human connection and documentation of the day as it unfolds. Its current website also states that it is proudly queer-owned and welcomes all forms of love and expression. The old Toronto address, British Columbia phone number and Facebook URL supplied in the legacy record are not confirmed on the official website, so they are not presented here as current contact details.

Current identity and profile scope

Samson Photography’s official domain, samsonphotography.ca, confirms both distinctive business-name tokens—“Samson” and “Photography”—and clearly promotes wedding-photography services. The homepage introduces Samson and Kelsey Anne and identifies the business as a Nova Scotia wedding-photography team. This is sufficient first-party evidence to treat the company as active.

No street address or postal address is published on the official pages reviewed. The address field is therefore intentionally blank. Likewise, the official site directs prospective clients to its enquiry form rather than publishing a phone number, so no phone number is listed. Couples should use the official enquiry route instead of relying on contact details attached to older directory records.

Services and specialization

Wedding photography is the confirmed core service. Samson Photography says it documents weddings with candid storytelling and gentle direction when needed. Its published wedding offerings cover small, intimate gatherings, courthouse vows, non-traditional wedding experiences, adventure elopements, full-day celebrations and multi-day wedding events. That range is useful for couples deciding whether their plans need a short, customized booking or longer event coverage.

The official package page states that every wedding package includes two photographers, customizable coverage, a wedding-planning guide, consultation and schedule support, travel up to 130 km, 72-hour sneak peeks, a customizable online gallery, printing options and wedding-album design services. It also lists an engagement or couples session, 35 mm film with a digitized gallery, and a wedding album as optional additions. Beyond weddings, the business states that it photographs portraits, small-business branding and events, but those services are outside this wedding profile.

Service area and who it may suit

Samson Photography states that the team lives on Nova Scotia’s South Shore and works throughout the Maritime provinces. Its local service pages also specifically address South Shore and Annapolis Valley weddings, while its enquiry page says the team will travel where a couple’s plans take them. The published standard inclusion is travel up to 130 km; couples planning a venue farther away should ask how travel, accommodation or destination logistics will affect their quote.

The documented offering may suit couples planning a Nova Scotia celebration who want a candid-forward record of the day, as well as those holding a smaller event or elopement. It may also suit couples who value working with a proudly queer-owned team that explicitly says it welcomes all forms of love and expression. These are statements of the company’s published approach and identity, not a guarantee of fit or availability for a particular date.

Confirmed strengths and practical limitations

A concrete strength is the published structure of the wedding packages: two photographers are included, along with planning and schedule support, a 72-hour sneak-peek delivery, a customizable online gallery and album-design options. The business also publishes distinct coverage formats rather than treating every wedding as a single full-day package. This gives couples a documented starting point for comparing an elopement, a conventional wedding day and a weekend event.

The practical limitations are evidentiary rather than negative. The official site does not publish a street address, public phone number, maximum image count, turnaround time for the complete gallery, or a detailed travel-fee schedule beyond the 130 km included-travel statement. It also cannot show live date availability. Couples should confirm these items in writing before relying on a package outline or making non-refundable wedding plans.

Pricing

Current pricing is explicitly published on Samson Photography’s wedding-packages page. The Moment, a customizable option for short-and-sweet intimate gatherings, courthouse vows, non-traditional weddings and adventure elopements, starts at $1,400 plus HST and is described as two to seven hours, with a two-hour minimum. The Forever full-day package starts at $4,400 plus HST for eight hours. The Weekend package is listed at $6,300 plus HST for 14 or more hours and includes full-day wedding coverage plus a pre-wedding and/or post-wedding session.

The official site also lists optional pricing: 35 mm film plus a digitized wedding-film gallery is $100 per roll; an engagement or couples session added to a wedding package is $250; and wedding albums start at $850. Custom weddings are quoted individually. Pricing, taxes, inclusions and travel treatment can change, so couples should request the current pricing guide and ask for a written quote tailored to their date, location and event schedule.

Contact and booking

The confirmed way to contact Samson Photography is the official enquiry form at samsonphotography.ca/inquire. The form asks couples to share confirmed wedding information and ideas. The business says it will then send a pricing guide and arrange a call or Zoom meeting to assess fit. Once package and coverage details are confirmed, it sends an agreement to secure the booking.

The enquiry page says the team aims to reply within 48 hours and advises checking spam folders because attachments may be sent. That is a stated response target, not confirmation that a particular enquiry will receive an immediate reply. The page does not publish a direct phone contact, office address or a public availability calendar.

What couples should confirm

Before booking, confirm whether the team is available for the exact date and whether the selected package is appropriate for the ceremony, portraits, reception and any additional events. Discuss the expected timeline, the number of coverage hours, whether the 130 km travel inclusion applies to the venue, and any added travel or accommodation costs. For an elopement or courthouse wedding, ask for the custom quote that applies to the planned duration and location.

Also confirm the complete-gallery delivery timeframe, the process for selecting or receiving images, the cost and scope of any film, engagement-session or album addition, payment timing, cancellation or postponement terms, and the exact contents of the agreement. These questions help translate the published package overview into a booking that matches the couple’s plans.
