I'm Sam - lead photographer, storyteller, and creative heart behind Samantha Brooke Photography. I specialize in refined, artful wedding imagery for couples who value intentional details and genuine moments. Together with my second shooter, who doubles as my sister, Samantha Brooke Photography has over 30 years collectively of photography experience. That's a lot of time for two women to spend behind their cameras. On wedding day, and I cannot express this enough, experience matters.

My work blends editorial elegance with emotional depth, capturing your day with an effortless balance of style and soul. I believe great photography is more than beautiful-it should feel like you. Thoughtfully composed, quietly powerful, and full of life.

With a decade of experience and an eye for the in-between moments, I'm here to make the entire process seamless, meaningful, and fun.

Whether you're getting married in the Carolinas or across the globe, I bring a calm, grounded presence and a commitment to documenting your story with care and clarity.

If you're drawn to timeless images with a modern edge-and want a photographer who feels like both a professional and a friend-l'd be honored to be part of your day.

some random things I love

pizza - any beach - traveling - family time - first looks - grandparents - puppies - ok, pretty much any animal - the smell of books (and reading anything I can get my hands on) - thunderstorms - rainy summer days - rainy winter days - sunny fall days - leaves crunching under feet - the smell of coffee - iced coffee - how pleasant everyone is at Christmas - when you have something in common with a stranger
