Over the next couple of years, I had the opportunity to photograph some friends and realized how much I loved helping people preserve who they are in images.
am a mother of 5, corny dad joke enthusiast, lover of natural disaster movies and all the baked goods. I’m a huge crafter and years ago I wanted to take better photos of the things I created. I wanted to take it beyond what my cell phone could do, so I got a camera. From that point the addiction had taken hold.

Your BFF Portrait Photographer
Hi!
I'm samantha!
In 2021, I officially opened my business and within a year had created a studio in my home and dedicated hours to improving my photography skills. I became a Certified Professional Photographer through the Professional Photographers of America furthering my photographic expertise. I continue to add to my education and knowledge while serving my clients at the highest level through printed artwork of the ones they love.
For me, printed portraits serve as an opportunity for storytelling. This has played such an important role in my family and is a tradition I love sharing with my clients....wherever in their life story they may be.
Let's connect so we can get your story on your walls!
My family is a huge part of my life. All 5 of my kids have different interests and I love to support them in those adventures. I love cheering for them whether it's at a soccer game or a symphony concert.
When we are at home, we spend a lot of time together playing games. The funnier the better. I'm a huge fan of silly games like Exploding Kittens. Go look it up....seriously...it's hilarious.
My family
We had the BEST experience with Samantha! She is the perfect family photographer!! She made us smile, laugh and honestly forgot she had a camera in her hand. I can't wait to share these memories with my family, friends, and everyone I come in contact with!
Samantha Hardcastle is a family photographer that demonstrates the highest level of quality, professionalism, dedication, and energetic passion to her work. . . . !! It was a pleasure to do a session with her. The results were more than I could have asked for!!
