Where to begin... I can’t praise Roza enough! I searched high and low before I booked Roza for my maternity photo shoot and from now on she is the only photographer I will use. Roza takes her time before your session to walk you through everything and brainstorm ideas with you. On the day - having a full pampering glam session was everything I needed, especially so late in my pregnancy. Roza was so comforting and did not rush us like some other photographers do. We went over our allotted time for the photo shoot, but Roza was very accommodating and just wanted to make sure that we had the perfect shots. When we received the photos, I was totally blown away. I’m one that loves having a photo shoot for everything, and this was definitely the best one I’ve ever had. All of our friends and family were in complete awe over our photos, and unlike traditional photos, these were made with such an amazing artistic touch. I would 10000% recommend hiring Roza for ANY of your photography needs, and the only thing that I’m so sad about is that I didn’t find her sooner!

Roza is so informative and helpful! She made me feel very comfortable during the shoot and made me feel like a movie star. I did not know I had it in me to produce such great pictures! It took less than 2 weeks to see my pictures. During the Reveal & Order Session, ll the pictures came out so nicely and it was a very tough choice to choose which ones I wanted! I did not expect to have such nice photos. Roza informed me about her pricing and how we can work things out. She is very helpful and is there to support! She understands that this is an investment. I recommend going to her for all your photography needs. Her work is exceptional.

My good friend shared with me beautiful photos /portrait she found on internet. It was Roza Sampolinska photography work and I did not wait long to schedule my glamour session. Roza made a wonderful atmosphere and made me feel so special and relax that I quickly forgot about camera and any stress. No doubt Roza has natural talent and her photographs looks like masterpieces !! I have enjoy the session and Roza style how she direct her model and instruct to get the most amazing results natural /soft /drama and elegant look. Purchased album which is a high end finish and best quality !!! This is my best gift FOREVER. Highly recommended . Give 5 star!!!

I can't say enough about how great Roza is! i did a glamour session with Roza skills at creating unique and beautiful photos are only matched by her ability to understand her clients. Roza will go out of her way to get to know her clients and what they're looking for, and we really appreciated that. She took the time to listen , understand my personality and then transform those characteristics into her beautiful photos.
I don't know how did i get so lucky to be photographed by such an amazingly talented photographer i was absolutely amazed by the results especially that as a photographer i never stood in front of the camera before ! She was very patient , understanding , fun, dedicated, and professional

My experience in my long marriage left me feeling uncertain about my feminine side. Those years left me hiding my body, covering up with clothes, never even looking at myself naked. Then while going through my divorce a friend showed me a boudoir shot taken by Roza. I was incredibly impressed. The quality of that photo had a huge impact on me. It was somehow therapeutic to even think of myself looking like that.
I finally tracked down the photographer in the Newburyport area and called her. From the moment we first spoke I knew I was making the right decision. Roza made me feel comfortable sharing my personal feelings on why having boudoir shots of myself was so important to me. Even the call was empowering.
Working with Roza the day of my photo shoot was pure photo therapy. I'd never posed for a professional photographer before. I didn't know how I would 'be' in front of the camera. But the day ended up being one I will always remember. We talked, laughed, and I felt magnificent. It was a beautiful experience.
Then came the day of the reveal. When I first saw my photos I cried like a baby. I never saw myself like that. I was in awe. I still am.
Roza captured beauty in every shot. It still amazes me every time I look at the photos. Roza and her incredible talent behind the lens captured the me I never knew. And the me I lost over the years. The experience was magical. Roza truly is the camera doctor!
Thank you Roza!

I recently had a session with Roza ! She was absolutely amazing !!!! She accommodated my schedule and answered any questions i had. When it came time for my session she made me feel so comfortable. She did my hair and there was another girl who did my make up. It was great girl time laughing and talking while we got ready. When it was time for the shoot she made me so comfortable. I had a blast. I had never done a boudoir shoot, but knowing it was just me and her i was ok with it . Her work was absolutely stunning and so professional! I bought the biggest package she offered because i was so in love with her work. If ypur looking for someone , fun , professional, nice , kind , and does exceptional work , roza is the person for you ! I will definitely be booking another shoot with her for my children !

Portraiture at the highest artistic level. Roza is professional and personable, making the whole experience a memorable one. She creates legacy portraits using her signature film noir style, reminiscing of only the best magazines. If you want to feel like a celebrity for a day, that's the place. I first met Roza when I rented her studio for a project I was doing for my own business. After seeing her work I hired her to take portraits of my wife for her birthday, and these turned out to be the most beautiful and timeless images we could hope for. We're already planning a family shoot this summer. Highly recommend!

I am so grateful that I was referred to Roza! I first met her for my glamor portrait session. The results were so amazing we did not have any doubts who should be our wedding photographer. The detail and quality of her work is impeccable! She has left us with such a detailed storybook of our wedding day. I love my pictures - I can't stop looking at them! Thank you Roza for paying so much attention to all of those little things that are so important and meaningful to us! You truly caught the emotions of that day, and I am so excited about that! I will absolutely recommend you to all of my friends!
