    Wedding Photography and Videography

    Sam and his crew (Bobby and Cameron) were fantastic! Sam answered all my questions leading up to the wedding day. Him and his crew catered to all my photo requests and video suggestions. Bobby was great at capturing all the shots I wanted and then some. It rained on the wedding day so they hooked us up with an alternate indoor venue for photos. Our Same Day Video was beautiful and made us both cry. Worth every penny! We love you guys, thank you!!!

    Highly recommended! Felt very comfortable with the members. They made our day feel like it was important and special to them and genuinely cared about out special day. They made sure that they captured all the most special moments to us. The finished result is breathtaking and I don't have words to express how impressed I am all around with their talent. Great experience! The best!

    Sam at Hand 2 Eye was a dream to work with. He worked with our budget, timing, everything that made our day a true success. My mom was against getting a videographer as she said, "you have photos a video is a waste of money". As her daughter, of course I wanted to prove her wrong. A few months after our wedding my Husband and I met with Sam to see the video for the first time, and it exceed my expectations. This video brought back all the same feelings from the day. I never thought I would be able to relive the best day of my life but, I can!
    Our photos are beautiful but, the video is something that lets you see the happiness, excitement and good jitters all over again. My husband and I love watching this as it truly brings us back. Once we played this for my parents (my mom particular, after she cried throughout the entire thing) said "Your photos are beautiful Natalee, but this video is perfection!" I cannot express how happy I was with Hand 2 Eye and the quality of the video.
    Sam worked so well with our Photographer and was seamless. Without a doubt I recommend Hand 2 Eye! Thank you Hand 2 Eye for being apart of our day and for giving us the best gift, being able to relive Our Wedding Day!

    Sam and his crew were amazing to work with!!! My husband and I saw his work at another wedding we were at and said we had to have Hand 2 Eye!! We though it would be a challenge being from the US and him in Canada but we made it work and we were 100% happy with everything! We would choose Hand 2 Eye again and again!

Sam Alaimo - Photographer, Cinematographer - Producer - Director. Hand 2 Eye Photography & Cinema has been operating since 1996, specializing in event photography, cinematography, video production and post production services with an emphasis on creative imagination, cinematic capture and editing.

Sam believes that cinematography and photography can be more than just...well, a wedding video, or plain pictures. it can be a very strong combination of documentation and fine art. He also believes it should be a whole lot of fun! Sam's focus has always been on capturing the real moments of a wedding day in an interesting and unique way.

Sam is extremely passionate about his craft and always looks forward to handcrafting beautiful wedding films for his clients. The style of work is non-traditional and the day of filming is extremely unobtrusive (as we are looking for natural-candid/ raw emotions).
