EXTRA! EXTRA!
We tell the stories of the moments that matter most.
Founded in 2022, Michael Bonner and Montana Samuels created Extra! Extra! to tell the stories of life’s most precious occasions. They met as journalists and connected through their shared love of storytelling. For more than two decades they've brought stories to life, earning awards for their work across the country. With that invaluable experience, they capture life's most precious moments in keepsakes that will last forever.

Montana is a multimedia journalist from Lawrence, Kansas. He wrote about the hip-hop scene in Atlanta before grabbing his first taste of New England by Cape Cod. After a pit spot in Illinois, he began writing in New Jersey before climbing the ladder to senior editor. He now lives in Providence, where he tries his damndest to run long distances and eat a lot of pastries.

Mike grew up in Central Mass. before writing stories in more than a dozen states from Boston to Provo, Utah and everywhere in between. He returned home to Worcester in 2019 where he now lives, writes and is never too far from his two Boston Terrier’s Mack and L.J.
