Hello & Welcome!


My name is Samantha Manness, and I am a professional photographer based in the breathtaking High Desert of Southern California.


As a natural light photographer for six years, I specialize in capturing authentic, genuine moments for families and individuals. During my sessions, I love to blend posed and candid moments to capture real and personal interactions of my clients. Many of my clients have become dear to me, and I thoroughly enjoy working with them!


I strongly believe that connection is the key to my work. That's why I always strive to create a comfortable and fun atmosphere when working with clients. This approach helps us connect on a deeper level, resulting in genuine and authentic moments captured in my photographs.


My ultimate goal is to create beautiful, timeless images that my clients will treasure for a lifetime. I am dedicated to providing excellent service and ensuring that your photography experience is enjoyable and stress-free. Thank you for considering me as your photographer, and I look forward to capturing your special moments!
