I'm a land locked Brummie wedding photographer, covering the whole of the UK. I favour a more candid style of wedding photography. I adore capturing genuine moments. I have a passion for capturing the emotion of a wedding day, I achieve this using a mix of reportage photography and the free-lens technique which make for a dreamy, quite ethereal effect to my detail images and some couple portrait images. I am passionate about my work because it really is my ‘What I want to be when I grow up’ job, I really have my dream career and so many clients comment when they see me beaming all day and buzzing around like bee ‘You really love what you do don’t you Samantha?’ Even after 10 hour days on my feet, carrying a very heavy kit… I’m still smiling!

After using Quite a few photographers over the years (mainly family shoots) I can honestly say Rose and Rainbow are my fave! From the shoot itself, right through to the beautiful images produced, amazing. Sam is lovely, made the experience completely stress free, in fact it felt like nothing more than a walk through the woods. No pressure to perform staged shots, just beautifully, natural images that we will treasure forever.

We had some lovely family portrait style photographs when my boy was 1, in flower fields, and it was the best money ever spent. Will cherish them forever. Highly recommended photographer ?

I cannot recommend Samantha from Rose and Rainbow photography enough. From the second we met Sam, we really connected and felt at ease in her company. On our wedding day, it was a joy to spend so much of our precious time with her and we have beautiful images that we will always treasure. We got the package that included a photo album, which I highly recommend, and we received our images and album in a beautiful gift package. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Sam for a newborn or family shoot when the need arises as we love her natural, unobtrusive photography style. Thanks Samantha xx

Sam did a family photo shoot in Warley woods for us. She captured the most beautiful images of my children that I will treasure forever. She made us all feel very at ease, especially my 2.5 year old. She responded quickly to messages and is always so positive, friendly and happy to help. If only I had found her for our wedding!

Photography was one of the most important things to me and my husband when booking our wedding. After all, its the thing you will be looking at in years to come. We wanted to make sure we found someone who had the perfect style we were looking for. Having found Sam online I knew instantly i had to find out if she was available and meet up to discuss our wedding. Right from this moment i knew she would be amazing and create the images we wanted. You couldn't ask for a better person. Sam has a love for photography that i didn't see with anyone else. She also understands that a wedding is the bride and grooms most important day and really does care about making everything perfect for you. The day went perfectly and with Sams help. She wasn't just the photographer, she was amazing with our family and friends and even showed my niece how her camera works. When we received our finished photos I was amazed by her work. She captured all the different emotions of the day, all the special moments and each and every single photo is just gorgeous. If you are looking for a photographer then i would definitely get in touch and see her work for yourself! Thank you again so much for your lovely work xxx

We had our wedding photos back off Sam and just wow! She has captured our day beautifully, including all the lovely photos we didn't know she'd taken. We contacted Sam and arranged to meet and we knew before we'd finished our tea we were going to book with her she's just such a lovely person, so down to earth and her style is just what we were looking for. We had all day coverage from bride prep and it was all so relaxed, nothing was too much trouble. Our guests commented on how efficient and friendly she was, it was scorching outside but nothing was rushed and every request we had was captured. Would recommend Sam to anyone she was fantastic and will be keeping in touch :) Thank you!!! Xxx

I contacted Sam through Facebook as I has seen many recommendations and also she was local. We had a meeting and she totally knew what we wanted. We both said when she left what a great girl she was and were so looking for to seeing the results. Our day arrived and from start to finish she made us feel comfortable and relaxed. We came back from our honeymoon to a message that our photos were ready .. Sam came round and started the slideshow ... Never thought I would feel the way I did ... I was reliving my wedding day all over again. The photos were amazing.. what was more of a surprise was that there were photos on their that we didn't know about .. captured the moment if you take a look at the photos on Sam's Website you will see a black and white photo of us walking away. Everyone comments on this photo (We have it enlarged on our wall) We love it!!!! Sam has our 100% recommendation. If you have a question ask her nothing is too much for her. We found a true treasure and a friend in this lady xx

Samantha you are fantastic! We have just had a sneak peak at our wedding photos which look amazing, can't wait to see them all. Sam was with me during the bridal preparations, something I wasn't too sure about as I wanted the time with family & friends but Sam was just like having another friend with me, discreetly taking photos of all the little details whilst also entertaining my two daughters, something which I'm so grateful for & these little details would have been missed if she wasn't there. Sam was also nothing but professional & friendly with all of our guests. We had so many lovely comments about the way the photos were being done & even the hotel staff commented on how well Sam co-ordinated everything & would now like to see all of the finished photos. Prior to the wedding, we also had a family photoshoot in the woods with our two daughters who enjoyed ever minute with Sam. She made them laugh, lots & the photos were natural & caught their personalities so well. Thank you Sam for being part of our special day xx
