Hi, I’m Sammy

—

A storyteller with a camera, weaving light and love into the tapestry of family memories.

Born by the rolling tides of Adelaide, my childhood was painted in the golden hues of the beach and the gentle embrace of the river. Twenty years ago, life’s currents carried me to Darwin, where the sun kisses the earth a little differently, and the air hums with warmth and wonder. Here, amidst the tropical embrace, I built my home and my heart, raising three beautiful souls who inspire my every frame.

Motherhood has been my greatest muse—the tender chaos, the whispered lullabies, the hands that reach for yours in the quiet moments between the rush. I am drawn to the wild, unscripted magic of family—the laughter that echoes without restraint, the touch that lingers with love, the fleeting instants that, once passed, become treasures of the past.

I see poetry in the everyday: the tousled morning hair, the sun-drenched giggles, the weight of a sleepy child in your arms. I believe in capturing not just smiles, but stories—raw, honest, timeless. My lens seeks to preserve the heartbeat of your journey, the essence of this chapter, so that years from now, you can hold these moments close once more.

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me by the water, chasing adventures with my little tribe, or savoring a cool iced latte as the Darwin heat hums around me. Life is a blur, a beautiful, fleeting whirlwind, and I am here to press pause—to gift you the chance to hold onto the magic, just a little longer.

So whether you're awaiting the arrival of a new love, wrapping your arms around the family you've built, or cherishing the smallest details of your little one’s beginning, I would be honored to help you tell your story. Let’s capture the moments that will mean everything, for years to come.

Authentic,Timeless, Uniquely You!

Your story deserves to be seen- Lets Bring it to life!

Family on Film..

For me, family photos are about more than just pictures—they’re about capturing the warmth, love, and little moments that make your family special. I have a deep love for shooting 35mm film, which is how I document my own family. The soft grain, the dreamy colours and those beautifully unpredictable imperfections make each picture feel like a work of art.

Family under the sea..

Growing up near the sea and along the river has fostered a deep, lifelong connection to water—its rhythms, mysteries, and beauty. The Days were spent swimming, fishing, and exploring hidden coves, with the river winding through childhood like a quiet companion, offering endless adventures.

This love for water has naturally passed on to my children, who share the same fascination with its endless possibilities. They dive fearlessly and spend hours splashing, playing, and discovering the world beneath the surface. Watching them, I see reflections of my own childhood—the same joy.

Underwater photography has become a way to preserve this magic and in these images, I see not just the artistry of light and movement but the love of water passed down through generations. It is not just a setting but a defining presence in our lives, shaping our memories, adventures, and creativity—a reminder that beneath the surface, there is always more to discover.
