YOUR OHIO WEDDING + LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHER.
Nothing makes me happier than documenting love stories and all the other little parts that make up our lives. The why behind Samantha Ditmer Photography is simple. I love creativity, travel, people, and enjoying the simple moments. That is why I cannot tell you how much I love my job.
Hey there! I'm Samantha.

I’m married to my high school sweetheart, Jacob, and we have three kids, Jackson (6), Maverick (4), and Reagan (2). When I’m not at a session or editing all of those gorgeous images, I’m adventuring with my kiddos, grabbing iced coffee at my favorite local shop, aimlessly walking through the aisles of Target, or obsessively Googling cheap flights to anywhere I can go! I’m obsessed with traveling, so if you’re looking for a photographer to meet you outside of Ohio, let me pack my bags and meet you there!
In 2021, I decided to pursue wedding photography as my full time job after being a high school math teacher for the previous five years. Three years later and 75+ weddings documented, I've never been more thankful for this job and all of the amazing opportunities it has given me. It has been a truly crazy ride and I wouldn't change it for anything.

“Samantha truly creates magic behind her lens. For those that might be feeling a little camera shy, she does an incredible job of making you feel confident, relaxed, and authentically you-- and it really shines through in the photos!
We're so grateful to have met her and hope to shoot with her again soon. She's professional, creative, fun, and absolutely overdelivers in the quantity and quality of her work."

Samantha has shot SO MANY THINGS for me. From family sessions, couple sessions, Valentine’s Day mini session, surprise proposal, Christmas minis, engagement session, and soon to be my wedding!! Samantha is an amazing photographer. Not only is her work incredible but she is too! She makes sessions FUN & exciting. She does a fabulous job at not only capturing moments but your personality too. I would recommend her for ANY pictures you might need taken in the future.

Sam is super easy to work with, and our photos turned out beautifully. She made us feel relaxed and natural, and definitely knows what she’s looking for in poses, lighting, backgrounds etc. Can’t wait for our wedding photos next!! Highly recommend!
