“From the very beginning I was so impressed with IWINK Studios! It was easy to find, very clean walking in and Sammy was very attentive as soon as I got there! It was very clear where to sit, to sign in, put your stuff etc…which if you’ve gone to studios before you know how important all that is! Then working with Sammy was wonderful! By far the most professional photographer, from being caring, thoughtful, considerate and creative. He had the best ideas for our fitness photography shoot, our yoga shoot and headhsots! He was great about letting me view my photos along the way, cared about my opinon and wanted my creative input. Sammy took his time with me, made me feel VERY comfortable with him, which to me is the most important when doing a photoshoot. I want to trust the photographer, know that he respects and isn’t going to try anything weird because I need to feel free taking pictures. Sammy was so creative with his style and his lighting tecniques were very clever. I apprecitate how precise he was with making sure we got quality photos! I would recommend him to anyone wanting star quality photos, and if you are learning from him you will succeed in your photography after a session from him!”

“I did a photoshoot with Sammy 2 nights ago at IWINK Studios, located in Newport Beach and I’m SO glad I did! I needed new acting headshots and I also wanted to expand my modeling portfolio. I decided to take advantage of Sammy’s fitness photography and fashion photography skills and we completely lost track of time we were on such a role! Sammy was so good at communicating during the shoot and also made me feel very comfortable and free to be myself. It was great to see the pictures throughout the shoot to make sure we were both happy with how they were turning out and that I was doing the best that I could to get what we wanted. I never expected to get so many wonderful pictures out of one shoot, I’m so excited to add them to my portfolio! I really appreciated how accommodating IWINK was to me and what a fun and professional photographer Sammy was to work with! I think IWINK is the perfect space for indoor shoots, I bring tons of wardrobe options to my shoots and I actually had enough room to spread everything out and feel organized. Parking is easy, there are great mirrors, music and positive energy! It was well worth the drive from L.A., I can’t wait to shoot there again!!”

“We recently went to iWink studios for senior pictures for my son. Sammy was professional, yet made my son feel very comfortable during the shoot. The result was that we got some very natural smiles, not the fake or posed ones. He seemed to be knowledgeable about the lighting and backdrops and approached each shot with an artist’s eye. The pictures turned out to be really amazing. We had a great experience with iWink Studios and would definitely choose to use them again.”

“I recently worked on a fashion photography shoot with Sammy Z for my portfolio at iWink Studios in beautiful Newport Beach in Orange County, and I have to say he took it to a whole new level! From the instant I met Sammy he was professional, easygoing, funny, polite and friendly. I was immediately struck by his passion and infectious enthusiasm for his work. He has the most wonderful creative eye and is seriously talented at what he does. Sammy’s dedication and drive combined with his inspiring artistic vision, resulted in beautiful and breathtaking images. I would urge any model seeking to enhance their portfolio, or if you are looking for some amazing high quality, digital, portfolio headshots, to consult iWink Studios for their expertise – you will not be disappointed!”

“My experience at IWINK studios was the best time I’ve ever had working with a photographer. I love the way his studio is set up. Plenty of space to move around and be creative, and the concept of being able to rent it out if you want i very nice as well. His waiting room displays plasma TVs shuffling through his work and you an really see the potential of were a photoshoot with him can take you. Sammy himself is by far the best, most creative and professional individual I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. His point of view is very precise and in the end results in absolutely beautiful and professional product. I was spoiled by the way he commented on my every pose, communicating to me what did work and what didn’t work. As a model, I have never worked with someone with such a clear vision and drive to fulfill it. He truly makes sure you’re comfortable in every way, from wardrobe choices to body positioning, even down to snack time! He is an invaluable resource for people in the business and I have learned many things from him. He and his studio are truly a gift to the photography world.”
