Who Are Your Mentors?
Married for 21 years and parents of four daughters, Sam and Rayana Sacramento have been full-time photographers for 18 years. As immigrants for over two decades, they understand the challenges of starting over — and found in photography a calling and a mission.
Sam Sacramento is ranked among the Top 5 Wedding Photographers in the World by the World Photographic Cup and SWPP (2020–2022), with over 200 international awards. He has photographed in 31 countries and worked with celebrities, athletes, and editorial clients. Passionate about teaching, he also serves as a speaker, judge, and mentor at major photography events.
Rayana Sacramento, born into a family of artists, has a background in film production, and was a professional athlete and model. Early on, she realized that success in photography required more than beautiful images — so she dove into marketing, sales, client experience, and album design. Today, she leads the business side of their international brand alongside Sam.
They believe photography can change lives — just as it changed theirs. Their mission is to walk alongside you and inspire you to live from your art, with faith, excellence, and purpose.
