SoCal Photographer

Sam Annan

Welcome, and thank you so much for stopping by!My name is Sam, and I’m a born and raised Southern California native with a deep love for capturing life through the lens. Photography has been a part of my life for many years — not just as a passion, but as a way of preserving moments, emotions, and stories in their most genuine form.Whether I’m photographing people, places, or products, I approach every shoot with care, creativity, and an eye for the little details that make each subject unique. Southern California has shaped my style — sun-soaked, vibrant, and full of energy — and I’m proud to share that through the work I do.I’m truly grateful you’ve taken the time to visit my site. Whether you’re here just to browse or thinking about working together, I hope you feel right at home.

Why Short-Form Content MattersShort-form videos like Reels and TikToks are some of the most powerful tools for growing your brand online. They’re designed to grab attention quickly, boost engagement, and get your content in front of more eyes — fast.Whether you’re showcasing products, sharing behind-the-scenes moments, or telling your brand story, this type of content helps you connect with your audience in a real, authentic way.

Studio Work

Who am I looking for?

If you’re someone who wants more than just a photo — something that feels real, personal, and thoughtfully captured — then we’re probably a great fit. I work with individuals who want beautiful portraits, couples celebrating love (yes, even surprise proposals and elopements), and brands that need content with personality and purpose. Whether it’s an outdoor lifestyle shoot, a creative studio session, or content that brings your brand to life, I’m here to make sure your story comes through in every frame.

- AN ARTIST. Sam is so good at what he does! He shot our surprise engagement shoot and was so warm, kind, positive, and made us feel very comfortable posing for the photos. More than that - his photos were INCREDIBLE. We are so grateful we had him to shoot our special moment. He was also very communicative about timelines of receiving photos and got them to us quickly! 10/10 and would highly recommend.
