Hello, I’m Sam…

Family is everything, time is precious. I’d love to capture those memories for you.

 

Hi there, I’m so pleased you’ve jumped on this page so I can tell you about me, the human behind the camera. As many Mum’s I wear many hats! I’m a Mum to Charlie and Austin, wife to Andy and a TV producer by trade.  

I love people: their stories, their faces and I have been working on primetime documentaries for the BBC and Channel 4 for the past 10 years. So, in many ways photography was a natural progression.

Born and raised in Falmouth, Cornwall, I moved to Bristol from London after my husband and I found out we were expecting our little (not so little) Charlie. We love everything Bristol has to offer and haven’t looked back since we returned South West.

So what brings me here? Since having Charlie I rediscovered my passion for taking photos and having worked with TV cameras before my pregnancy I realised how much I missed that creative arm of my life.

Embracing the beauty of natural light, my style is reflective of my career as a TV producer: observational, natural, unobtrusive. This approach allows me to capture the essence of your family, whatever size, in a real, human, ‘normal’ way. And to me, that it is such a joy.

Memories are priceless, and time has a way of slipping through our fingers as life unfolds. Let me capture those moments for you to look back on and cherish forever.

My Top 5

  • Stripes

    I’m not sure when something becomes an obsession, but I love a breton, striped t-shirt, stripe pyjama, sock! My love for stripes is so strong I have a drawer dedicated to the humble stripe top. Forever a classic for me and hopefully a future classic for my little lads too.

  • Cornwall

    My forever home, that maaaaaaybe I’ll return to one day. My oh my she’s a beaut of a county. The sea, the sun (when it does shine) and the food! Pasties anyone! I will forever be proud of the homeland and forever proud of the Kernow sticker on my car.

  • Plants

    A rather new love, gardening and house plants. At the latest count I have over 30 houseplants and for some reason I am always on the look out for more. I love to potter around in the garden, do a tidy, mow the lawn, see what’s growing. Heaven.

  • My Boys

    No top 5 could be complete without my lads on the list. Being in a house of boy is actually not quite how I imagined, fairly smelly, will probably only get smellier. Hope not though.

  • Food

    Eating brings me such joy! Is it weird to have a list in a list? In no particular order: Chocolate, yoghurt, ramen, jacket potatoes with cheese and beans and sushi. NOM.
