“Sam is amazing to work with! She makes you feel one hundred percent comfortable in every shoot. Major bonus that she is the sweetest and fun to be around.”
Tiberio Family
"The best around! Sam knows how to work with kids of all ages. I'm so thankful we chose her to document all of our babies! She is amazing and so understanding."
Watkins Family
"Hands down the best photographer we have ever worked with! Sam has captured all our memorable life events, from action shots at kids birthday parties, to newborn photos and family portraits, we've always been impressed with her versatility. Not to mention, she's great with toddlers and husbands who aren't the most cooperative."
Hedrick Family
Nice to meet you!
I'm Sam(antha)
I'm your caffeine-fueled, animal-loving photographer with a soft spot for puns, nature, and anything chocolate.
Originally from Houston, Texas, I've called Hampton Roads home for over a decade now. And while I still think Virginia could use some better Mexican food (sorry, not sorry 😂), I've fallen in love with everything the East Coast has to offer.
When it comes to photography, I love capturing a little bit of everything. The beautifully posed portraits, the genuine laughter, the unexpected moments, and all the personality in between.
I'm passionate about honoring my clients' diverse backgrounds, experiences, and stories while creating an inclusive space where everyone feels welcome and celebrated. My goal is to make you feel comfortable, have a little fun, and create images that reflect who you are and the people you love.
