About Samantha Claire Photography
A passionate lifestyle photographer based here in Sydney on the Northern Beaches. I specialise in a wide range of photography. From family portraiture of life’s beautiful moments, to helping small businesses create some unique visual content for their online presence.
My style is very natural and honest. I prefer shooting in natural light as it constantly challenges my creativity, but also I feel it tells a richer, deeper story. I create art out of the real moments, capturing you and your story exactly how it is.
I’m all about trying new things and having fun with my projects. I work very closely with my clients/families to achieve the right aesthetic in images so the overall outcome exceeds expectations.
If you’d like to discuss travel to an area outside those listed, I’d be happy to chat.

What is a Doula?
Today, a doula is typically someone who acts as a hub of support, referrals and resources for a person during a major life transition, usually related to birth. Doulas have a holistic approach that considers both mental and physical well-being. Services vary significantly but can include emotional reassurance, information based on scientific evidence, and comfort techniques like massage and nourishing food. The role is not medical, and doulas cannot treat, diagnose or cure any disease.
