About this vendor
Hello sweet friend! I am a Tampa local who loves all things golden and joyful. The biggest compliment I get from my clients is how easy I am to work with, and how easy I make the experience of being photographed! We are all human and being photographed can be stressful! I do my best to make it feel like second nature, and leave you feeling like you just had FUN! I strive to make every single human feel seen, heard, and confident in their own skin... It's kinda my superpower ;)
I do my best to capture every little special moment even the ones you don't think I see. Grandma fixing your dress and smiling at you, your dads face when he walks you down the aisle, the special moment between you and your mamma, and of course the laughs between you and your person! I'm there to capture all the things you NEED and also all the shots you WANT. I have different packages available at different price points so don't hesitate to reach out! As always the best way to get in touch and see more of my work is via my website www.SamanthaLowePhoto.com and be sure to check out my instagram for recent updates at @Samantha_Lowe_ :)
Be the light you wish to see in the world, and CONGRATS! I hope to hear from you soon! :)

This woman saved the day after my previous photographer was incarcerated a month before the wedding. She made a rainy cold windy wedding day so much fun and was not afraid to brave...
the elements to get some incredible wind and rain pictures. I teared up when I saw our gallery for the first time. She's an artist. I would highly recommend her!
From start to end, Sam was an amazing photographer! My husband and I felt super comfortable the moment we met her for our engagement shoot. She was willing to work with our hectic ...
teacher schedule. She kept us laughing the whole time as it was the first time either of us did a professional photo shoot. Leading up to the wedding she was super helpful with assisting me in creating the day of timeline. She took initiative to work with my vendors the day of and never skipped a beat. She captured every special moment throughout the entire day! Sam calmed my nerves the morning of and helped me focus during all the hectic morning events. I was really sad to say goodbye at the end of the wedding reception. I cannot wait to have her capture our maternity photos next! ❤️
Amazing talent, amazing photos, amazing photographer! From before we even met, Sam’s bubbly, knowledgeable and professional attitude made this a smooth experience! Our photo shoot ...
almost got rained out but Sam handled it with smoothness and knew exactly what to do all while keeping us calm. She made the whole experience fun with her humor and friendly attitude as well as her knack for getting the most flattering poses/angles! She has the talent of making sure we got the photos we wanted but also adding her professional opinion so that the final result was above and beyond what we expected! I am so excited to show these off for our wedding and have already received so many compliments. We highly recommend using Sam, you will not be disappointed!
Samantha Lowe is everything you’ve ever needed in a photographer and more. Sam (I call her by a nickname now because she has become a true friend throughout this experience and I c...
an say that) is a talented, professional, flexible, and lively photographer! We met her at our engagement shoot in fall of 2019 and had such a blast laughing and posing that our photos showed our joy. Then, when COVID-19 hit she went over and beyond to capture our intimate 4 person wedding on our original date. Samantha’s photos reflected the passion, bliss, and love that we felt on our special day. Most recently, in September 2020 Samantha photographed our small wedding celebration and captured the fun! With all of the adjustments and plan changes, Samantha was AMAZING! She continuously showed us encouragement, support, and professionalism each time we spoke to her. Her supreme talent, energy and ability to capture the big moments & small detail every time was outstanding. She was very efficient in delivering are photos and they turned out beyond beautiful! The compliments we’ve received about Samantha and her photos from our family and friends are still coming. I highly recommend booking Samantha Lowe Photography for any and every special occasion.
Could not wish for a better wedding photographer. My wife and I received a plethora of compliments on the photos Samantha took for our wedding back in January. The final products w...
ere absolutely stunning and we did not have to wait long for them either. We both absolutely loved it. We were so impressed with the photos, we ended up purchasing a myriad of miscellaneous items on shutterfly with these pictures as keepsakes
Sam was the most perfect photographer we could of ever asked for. When we first met for our engagement shoot, we already felt like we’d known Sam all our lives- she was THAT friend...
ly and personable! Her personality is infectious and she is so fun to be around. She was communicative, dependable, and made hiring the perfect photographer SO easy. We are absolutely in love with all of our wedding pictures and can’t wait to deck our house out in them! Highly recommend, 11/10!
Sam was the B E S T! Not only was her work amazing, but I wish she could have been a guest at the wedding because she is SO FUN! She has the best personality and truly makes you fe...
el like the most important bride and couple she has ever worked with. We didn't get to meet prior to the wedding due to being in a different state, but I was never worried about how the big day would go. She communicated with me throughout the planning and made my visions come to life. She takes your wants and puts her special touch on them. I am obsessed with our wedding pictures and ALL of her work she post! I highly suggest booking Sam!
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! Sam is such a sweetheart & did such a beautiful job capturing our perfect day.🥰 She made me & my husband feel so comfortable which was really important to me ...
as I don’t always feel very photogenic. Our pictures came out perfect & I will cherish them forever.💕 She is very responsive & sent me some sneak peaks way sooner than I even expected. Her love & passion for her work is not only evident by her work ethic but through the stunning photos she takes! I will definitely be reaching out to her in the future for any photo shoots I might need ☺️
I truly don't know where to begin with how AWESOME Sam is! I was originally introduced to her through a friend of mine who surprised my husband and I with an engagement session. We...
instantly clicked with Sam! She has such a positive and loving vibe, she makes it so fun and easy to be in front of the camera. We loved working with her so much that we packed her up and brought her with us to photograph our destination wedding! Every photo from our wedding came out stunning and I truly can't decide which photos to hang up.
This girl’s sweet personality is contagious! I literally spent an hour giggling with her on the phone when I first contacted her for our wedding. She was so interested in literally...
every single detail and works so hard to make you feel comfortable with her. Not to mention that her photos are literally the most beautifully composed works of art of any photographer I’ve found!
Sam exceeded our expectations in every single way! Hiring Sam to be our wedding photographer was by far the best decision that we made. I initially found Sam on Instagram, and was ...
impressed by her talent and the quality of her work. As soon as I spoke with her, I knew she was the one! Her passion for her work and her couples, her attention to detail in every single shot and her overall sweet nature made her an absolute dream to work with. Sam perfectly captured the love that my (now) husband and I share, and I feel so lucky to have such beautiful images to cherish and share with our loved ones. I cannot say enough good things about her. Thank you so much, Sam, we are forever grateful!
The only reason I gave a 5 star rating is because there isn’t an option for 10!!! Samantha was able to perfectly capture all the joy of my daughter’s wedding day partly because she...

Sam did our engagement pictures. She is absolutely amazing and my Fiance and I had so much fun taking them with her. I would have hired her for our wedding if we were not getting m...

When I met with Sam for our consultation, her bubbly personality and friendly smile won myself and my fiancé over. She listened to all of our wishes and assured us she could make t...

Samantha was so great with my entire bridal party on my wedding day. She really captured all of our special moments from getting ready, to the ceremony, to hitting the dance floor....

I'D GIVE A MILLION STARS IF I COULD!!! AHHH!!!
Sam is incredibly talented and professional! I was referred to her by a friend last year, and I have absolutely no regrets! She has ...
a vivacious personality, and her vision is just one-of-a-kind.
I had been disappointed with previous photographers who turned me away the minute I mentioned my "budget", but Sam was genuinely interested to listen to my concerns and give me an unforgettable experience with what I could offer. We felt like our engagement shoot was customized to our vision; she worked incredibly hard to accommodate us (of course Sam made it look easy and flawless). She is so sweet, and is willing to do anything for that dream shot! She has become a dear friend through our upcoming wedding. We are so excited to continue working with her. We will definitely book her again to document all of our special moments.
I cannot say enough good things about Sam, if you have found her and she's still available on your wedding day BOOK HER. Samantha showed up in every way before, during, and after a...
t my daughters wedding. She gave my daughter and her now husband a complimentary engagement session, was a dream to deal with when planning the wedding and during, posted some sneak peeks within 24 hours of the wedding day, and then delivered the final gallery way faster than was expected. She went above and beyond every step of the way and we couldn't be happier with her!
Sam was so easy to work with and had great ideas for capturing the feel of the moment every step of the way with each frame she shot. Our daughter's photo gallery is not merely a ...
wonderful collection of wedding day memories, but a work of art. There are plenty of professional photographers who can take good pictures, but not many who treat an event as if it were their own. That, in a nutshell, is what sets Sam's photography apart...she shoots from the heart!
Mom of the Bride
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Sam and the photography service she provided us on our special day.
Her pricing is very fair for the package you receive. She made it h...
er goal to capture every little detail of our wedding... and trust me, I love little details. Her knowledge of how and when to capture the images is unmatched. She really makes it her goal to preserve your special day.
Sam did such a great job helping my family and friends feel comfortable in front of the camera. She even managed to make fussy children smile and look cute in their pics.. From the very start to the very end, Sam was there to capture it all. She didn’t miss a single thing and I am so grateful to have those memories saved in an image.
I recently got married and after using Samantha for our engagement shoot I knew she’d be our photographer for our wedding. Sam somehow knows how to not only capture faces but the s...
ouls that are behind them. She was an absolute joy to work with and makes you feel like you have a friend behind the lens. If you’re looking for that something special like we were, Sam is your girl!
Sam was amazing at our wedding! She was so professional but still kept everything fun and was very efficient! The photos I've received came out amazing and I will cherish them for ...
the rest of my life. Definitely hire Samantha for your next wedding!
