"Tim and I were lucky enough to have Samantha Brown as both our engagement and wedding photographer and we are beyond happy with that choice! Starting with the first introduction call, all the way through the wedding, Samantha was fantastic. She is an incredible communicator and Tim and I were instantly endeared to her warm, bubbly personality. As for the photos, I think they speak for themselves. Samantha captured our day so beautifully, down to even the smallest detail. She is truly a master of her craft. A million thanks to you and your husband for everything, Samantha!"

“Samantha was absolutely amazing to work with! Not only did she photograph my wedding (and do a beyond beautiful job), but she also photographed our engagement photos, my bridal shower, and rehearsal dinner. Every time, the photos came out spectacular. Samantha captured the best memories for us and we are so happy that we had the chance to work with her! Samantha has the best personality and I loved having her by my side every step of the way. She also makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera!“

"Getting to know Samantha was wonderful! We hired her for our wedding photography at Edson Keith Mansion 11/4/2023 and she captured so many wonderful moments from the ceremony to the dance floor. She was flexible with our schedule, assertive with photo positioning/ lighting and the outcome turned out amazing. We loved the natural lighting and editing of the photos. I highly recommend her for engagement and wedding shoots! As far as I'm concerned, these will NOT be just another picture to burn. Thank you ;)"

“AMAZING! I am in love with Samantha’s work. My husband and I are so glad we booked Samantha for our wedding day. She has a warm, strong energy and makes you feel like you’ve been friends for years! She made everyone feel so comfortable. She gives great instructions on how to pose and handled my wedding day with ease. She is such a creative mind! Our pictures are beautiful, amazing memories we will cherish for a lifetime!”
Nicole Miller
“It was an absolute PLEASURE to have worked with Samantha on my wedding day! My husband and I had three sessions with her and every single one was extremely professional but we also had an amazing time together! I would say that I am not the most comfortable person in front of a camera and she put us so at ease! This made our pictures that much better as well. 10/10 will use again and refer to everyone I know!"

Samantha did a wonderful job taking our family photos! I saw her beautiful work online and knew I wanted her to capture my family. With four young kids, it's no easy feat, but she was so patient and good with them. We got our edited photos back in a timely manner which was so appreciated! I would highly recommend her!
Patty Lewis
"Samantha did a family photo shoot for our family while we were vacationing in Siesta Key. We were so pleased with her and the photos she took. She was easy to work with, reasonably priced and is an excellent photographer. She had a lot of patience with our three generations and getting great shots. I can highly recommend using Samantha Brown Artistry!"

Samantha is the sweetest soul. She’s been taking my family pictures for a few years now and they always turn out amazing. She knows all the right poses and tells you exactly what to do. Love that! Highly recommend!

Samantha did a GREAT job with our family photos and that's not easy to do with a 1 y/o and 5 y/o in the group!

Having Samantha as my photographer and makeup artist was one of the best decisions I made on my wedding day, from the first moment I talked to her she made me feel confident, she is kind and very patient, I had never had a photo shoot before but she made me feel very comfortable, my wedding photos turned out spectacular, I would recommend Samantha as a makeup artist and photographer 100%!
Juliana Emerson
There is a reason why Samantha has all 5 star reviews! Wow, where do I begin... I truly can't say enough amazing things about Samantha and Peter. They did a beautiful job photographing our wedding. We just received our wedding gallery back and can't help, but smile as we get to relive that day all over again each time we look at our gallery. They did a wonderful job capturing our special day from start to finish. The communication was great with Samantha and she made us feel very comfortable and at ease!
Michael Armstrong
Samantha did a wonderful job with our photos. We originally found her online being from out of state to do our engagement photos that turned out excellent. And then, we decided to have our wedding in her area and she photographed our wedding recently. Those photographs were amazing and her attention to detail is top notch! She does very well planning, ironing out details beforehand and executing the timeline. Definitely, recommend Samantha!
Candice Houser
We are thrilled with the photos Samantha took, both of our entire group as well as those of couples and family units. Her candids were fantastic also. Samantha was able to organize, and patiently direct our huge group (28 people) with grace and finesse. I couldn't have asked for a better experience or outcome.
Thank you for capturing our joy-filled reunion!

Samantha and her husband were a pleasure to work with for our beach wedding!! My husband and I are very awkward when it comes to picture taking and she did a great job keeping us smiling and making us feel comfortable! The pictures came out amazing, she captured our day perfectly! She also did a great job managing the timeline and all the craziness and the turnaround for receiving our photos was way quicker than expected. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to have great photos!
Amy Parks
Samantha was amazing throughout the process and my daughter was so happy with her!! The photos were gorgeous and she knew exactly where to go and when. I highly recommend her and plan to use her again in the future for some family photos.
Lindsay Klotz
Thank you for being one of the best decisions we made while planning our beach wedding! From working your magic on my hair & make up and making me feel beautiful to capturing our day perfectly! You are so talented and we are so grateful we found you all the way from Indiana. You were a blast to work with and made us all feel comfortable. I would recommend you to all my friends and family. Thanks for the laughs and for being a special part of our wedding day.

Samantha and her husband are the best team to work with! My husband and I are not photo people and she made us feel so comfortable. We were laughing the whole time! The photos for our wedding were absolutely stunning! You need her for your big day!

We had the pleasure of working with Samantha Brown back in June. She did such an amazing job on my daughters hair and makeup as well as her photos. Would definitely recommend and look forward to working with her in future!
Brianna Weems
Samantha photographed maternity photos for our family last year while we vacationed in AMI. She did such a fantastic job we decided to have photos taken with the extended family this year! They are so well done and Samantha does such a great job capturing every detail. We highly recommend!
Samantha Loshelder
We were so impressed by Samantha Brown Artistry from start to finish! Photos are very important to me/us, both personally and professionally (I’m in the wedding industry), so I really wanted to find a photographer to capture this unique time for my family while on vacation in Siesta Key. Sam was extremely communicative from my first inquiry and even provided a style guide to help us choose our wardrobe, which I always appreciate!
Karen S.
Our kiddo was not in a good mood and I was worried about getting any good pics but Samantha did a wonderful job and I’m thrilled with the photos. She was flexible and worked with us when a few days before our original vacation we came down with covid. Would hire her again next time we travel to Florida. Great package for a great price!
Maddie Scott
We had the best experience with Samantha Brown Artistry during our surprise engagement shoot! She made everything so easy and fun!
Erika Knopp
Honestly finding a good photographer can be hard and you never really know what you’re gonna get till you book and see how the pictures turned out. I am so so happy to have found and booked Samantha. I can’t say enough good things about her, both as a person and an artist. My husband HATES getting pictures taken and when we left our session he said we would totally book with her again in the future. She has such a great eye for lighting and helping you pose, but also getting amazing candid shots!
Jennifer Dixon
"SAMANTHA IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! From the second I booked with her to the end of our wedding she was always available for any questions I had, she was so detail oriented, and just a delight to work with. Our wedding day was absolutely fantastic and I could not have asked for a more talented photographer. She had a fast turnaround for our pictures, and they turned out absolutely beautiful. You will not be disappointed if you book with her!"
Gracen Rogers
"I don’t even know where to begin! Sam is the absolute BEST! Not only did she photograph our beach wedding, she also started out our wedding day helping out with doing the ladies hair! Not only have I gained a photographer that we will use again when visiting Florida, I’ve also gained a super sweet friend! She will NOT disappoint!"
Katie Parker
"Samantha did an incredible job with our photos this year! We found her online and so happy we went with her. She was very friendly, easy to work with. We had our 6 month old and she got so many good photos of him! Hopefully we go back to area next year and get use her again."
Heather Fleissner
"Samantha was so great to work with! Usually men don’t like taking pics, but she was husband approved as well. Lol! She knew great spots, was very flexible with our timing. She is affordable as well. Can’t wait to use her again next time we are back in town!"
