Natural. Honest. Timeless

Photography rooted in connection, peace, and people that feel like home.

Hi, I’m Samantha Welch

photographer, farm girl at heart, and a firm believer that the most meaningful moments are often the quiet, unscripted ones.

I specialize in local weddings (in and around Clarksville Arkansas) and seasonal family sessions on our farm just outside of Lamar Arkansas—from wildflowers and fall maples to pine trees and peaceful hayfields. I also offer newborn and studio sessions right here on the property.

My style is natural, timeless, and directed just enough that you feel confident without feeling posed. I’m here to make you feel at ease, slow down, and actually enjoy the moment.

If you’re looking for photos that feel like you and a photographer who gets the chaos and the meaning behind it all, I would be honored to document your story!

MY STYLE & VALUES

Bright, natural light with timeless editing

Clear direction so you feel confident

Gentle posing with in-between moments captured

Focused on emotion, connection, and ease

Kind Words

"... made us feel like we were spending time with our best friend"

Samantha did such a fantastic job capturing our little family! Going into a family shoot is always a little scary with toddlers and babies, but she made us feel completely relaxed and in the moment instead of posed in front of a camera! 😊 She is just the sweetest person that made us feel like we were spending time with our best friend and was patient and wonderful with our kiddos,even helping them spot critters and fish at the pond! & yall her property is beautiful! All over the place is gorgeous landscaping! We especially loved the maple tree grove and the pond! Check her out and book your family session at her farm! You will not regret it! I'm already planning the next session I can have her do for us!

"My husband and I were very happy with our pictures."

Sam did a fantastic job with the photography at our wedding! She stayed in contact with me before and after the wedding, showed up earlier than on time the day of the event, and captured some awesome moments during our special day. My husband and I were very happy with our pictures. I would highly recommend her to anyone in search of a wedding photographer!

"We are OBSESSED with both our engagement and wedding pictures!"

We tried to chose a photographer near our venue, and after seeing Samantha’s website and pictures she had done, we couldn’t not go with her. She is so professional and easy going to work with, let’s you incorporate your own ideas into the pictures, sweet to be around, and at the wedding socialized with our guests and never stopped taking pictures. We are OBSESSED with both our engagement and wedding pictures!

Whether you’re booking a wedding or chasing toddlers, I’d love to capture your season.
