Samantha Black is a North London-based photographer, art director and retoucher. She shoots a diverse range of portraits, including fashion and beauty, lifestyle and personal branding.
I’m Samantha (she/her). I’d describe myself as a soulful creative, a lover of deep connections and a seeker of truth. I've professionally photographed people since 2012. I primarily work with digital cameras, but sometimes I shoot on 35mm film.
I was born in East London and lived in North London with my husband and two children. After a degree in Fashion, another in Business, and a 10-year career in Fashion, I discovered a love for photographing people.
It's been 15 years since I discovered a love for photographing intimate connections, something I couldn't ignore.
I use my art and heart to feel my way through each session, so I'm most at home when I can connect with the people I work with. Integrity goes to the heart of what I do.
I try to surround myself with warm-hearted, kind and compassionate souls. I believe in progress through positive social change. Oh, and I'm a Plant Mama to many.
My art is part of me; I do everything from a completely genuine place. I ask that you do, too, and together, we’ll create something you'll love.
