We are so thrilled that we got to work with Madalena for our wedding.
She was so kind, personable and fun. We had a couple meetings before our big day and she listened to everything and completely understood the assignment. My husband and I primarily wanted to focus on candid photos to capture the true essence and feel of our day and Madalena did exactly that. She also split her photography time in between the day, which I’m incredibly grateful for.
All of our guests were so impressed by her soloing all the shots during the wedding, zipping in and out of areas unseen! I was also amazed at how fast we got our previews!! All beautifully shot.
Thank you so much for capturing our day, we’ll cherish the memories for a lifetime.
We highly recommend Sambajoy Wedding Photography for any special occasion!

We had the pleasure to have Madalena and Marcelo capture our big day and we absolutely loved loved loved working with them! We are not natural in front of cameras and the nerves can be there on your big day, but they went above and beyond to make sure we were confortable and confident in front of the camera. They have a magic eye for art to capture the most perfect photos and we are absolutely in love with the sneak peek they delivered to us shortly after the wedding. Muito obrigada to you both! You'll have a special spot in our hearts forever!

Every photo we've seen has exceeded our expectations. You are two of the sweetest people we have ever met and it was an absolute pleasure having you with us throughout our special day.

Words cannot express our gratitude towards Madalena and Marcelo. They exceeded any and all expectations we had in capturing our wedding day and engagement photos too.
They were so caring and open to working with us on the vibe and feel we wanted to convey in our photos. They quickly understood we were a different couple and were able to blend their creative vision with ours.
Sambajoy not only delivered beautiful, creative and artist photos but more importantly, they delivered memories that my husband and I will be able to look at for the rest of our lives.
We could not be happier to have them share our special day with us and we feel so lucky to have met such warm kind hearted people.
We love you both <3

Madalena and Marcelo are nothing short of AMAZING! They have an eye for detail, capture you in the best light possible, and are so much fun to work with! They make you feel comfortable while shooting, vs awkward, and are creative in their shoot locations. They put in the effort to scout all possible places to shoot, and if you're feeling adventurous, they will take you to some fun, interesting spots! I had the best time with them - both at my engagement and wedding shoots. Every single picture they take is breathtaking and unique, and everyone who sees them is blown away! I would HIGHLY recommend everyone to work with them :)

SELINA & NICK
Madalena and Marcelo are so kind! My fiance and I had our engagement session with them, and it was such a fun and memorable day. They are quick to respond and very patient. They took the time to scout locations for our session and we received our photos quicker than we had anticipated. We love our photos! Thank you!
SAMANTHA & STEVEN
Amazing amazing amazing photographers and the nicest people you'll ever meet. Could not have asked for better wedding photographers. The pictures they took will be cherished for life!
MISO & CHRIS
Madalena and Marcelo are two of the kindest and most caring individuals I have ever met. Their charming, friendly attitude made our engagement shoot and wedding day so comfortable and lovely. Because both of them took photos on the day, they captured the entirety of the day in a way that other photographers might miss. It was delightful to go through our photos afterwards and re-live our day in such gorgeous detail.
Sambajoy also brings an artistic flair and unique vision to photography. Being so in love, they know how to capture that emotion and let it show through in the art they create. My wife and I still can't stop scrolling through our photos whenever we get the chance. They were, by far, the best decision we made regarding our wedding day. Thank you so much, Madalena and Marcelo!
JOHANNE & PHILIP
Marcelo and Madalena are amazing photographers and together they make the best team! They're fun, warm-hearted and made us feel at ease despite us being quite camera shy. We got the photos from our wedding a few weeks ago and they're absolutely gorgeous. So pleased with every single one of them!
ANDREA & STEFANO
"It's hard to find words to describe how amazing was Sambajoy's work on our wedding. Madalena flew all the way from Canada to Hawaii and she stayed with us. She helped us with everything with big heart and smiles.
I LOVE her style and personality, my husband and I are shy for photos but not with this photo duo, they will make you feel very comfortable and we are absolutely happy with the photos and all of our friends and families love them too. We had a great time having a photographer around, we had a photo session on the day after the water and Madalena took photos of us even underwater!
I love them! And I would like to highly recommend them to be your wedding photographers, they amazing people and photographers from Brazil, living in beautiful BC. They will definitely make your hearts happy and if I could I'd take them to all my trips and special moments :) Andrea Jakober"
