Hi, I'm Samantha, the blonde fool behind the lens and Tink&Lulu Photography. Typically known for my black heart, there are three things that make me all mooshy and sob, an epic wedding, a newborn and my boyfriend telling me I can't buy more shoes. I'm a sucker for romance and chivalry; I love nothing more than being given the opportunity to document real love.
Whether it's swaddling your newest creation or photographing your family, I am here for all your big love moments. Photography and my love for it began in high school when my art teacher suggested photography as a medium for a self-portrait assignment. From that day, many an hour was spent in a darkroom developing negatives, experimenting with different techniques and pestering my parents to buy me a camera.

I have used Tink and Lulu a few times for photographs of my children. The most recent session was the contemporary photos I wanted for our new room. They are absolutely fantastic, have captured the kids personalities and I just love them.
Samantha makes even the most awkward of kids feel relaxed enough to smile and laugh.
Great quality and value for money.

I cannot recommend Tink and Lulu photography highly enough! I have used Sam multiple times now and she just makes the whole experience stress free from start to finish. She is sooooo good with kids and truly captures their little personalities and getting those perfect precious memories on camera. I wouldn’t use anyone else!

Highly recommend Samantha at Tink & Lulu Photography. Absolutely thrilled with all the photos she has taken for us, from baby to 10 year old. So helpful from start to finish in arranging photos of our baby to match existing framed photos of our older kids. And the finished product was just perfect, hand delivered to our door. Brilliant customer service maintaining utmost professionalism throughout. Great value for money too. Will definitely return.

We have had both our baby photos done by Samantha and she is wonderful. Very friendly nature and makes you feel very relaxed. She has a great, gentle way with the babies which mean the baby is very content and photos turn out fab! Definitely recommend her as a photographer.

I chose to have my daughter's first birthday pictures taken by Samantha after a friends recommendation and let me just say that I am so glad that I did!
Prior to booking, Samantha gave me all the information that I required to make an informed decision without any obligations.
On the day of the shoot, we chose an outdoor location that was both local and had indoor and outdoor space with weather conditions in mind.
Samantha was well organised and was great with my daughter and extended family - the pictures are both natural and professional.
I'd definitely be back to have pictures taken by Samantha

**5 STARS** We cannot recommend Tink and Lulu Photography highly enough! Samantha makes the whole experience enjoyable and stress free from the outset. She is warm, funny and professional so we all felt very relaxed with her! Sam is absolutely great with kids and can even put the most awkward husband at ease! Having been to Sam for family shoots and kids shoots, we now have the most natural, timeless professional images that we will cherish for years to come! Thanks Sam!
