Welcome
I’m Sammie O’Neal—the camera-wielding, joke-cracking, professional hype girl behind Snaps by Sammie, based in Spring Hill, TN and surrounding areas. I specialize in capturing families, couples, and small business owners in their natural habitat—laughing, thriving, or just trying to keep it together. No stiff poses, no fake smiles—just real moments (and maybe a little controlled chaos).
My photography journey started 15 years ago when my husband gifted me a camera, unknowingly signing me up for a lifetime of, “Hey, stand over there, the light is PERFECT.” In 2024, I took the leap into full-time photography, which means I now get paid to make people look amazing. Not bad, huh?
When I’m not behind the lens, I’m mom-ing my feral 5-year-old, who ensures that nothing in my life (or yours) shocks me anymore. Your toddler’s meltdown mid-session? Been there. Groom who hates photos? Please, I specialize in those.
My style?
Whether I’m capturing your family’s beautiful chaos, your small-but-mighty wedding, or your brand’s main character energy, I’ll hype you up, roast you lovingly, and deliver photos so good your ex accidentally likes them.
Let’s make some magic—and I promise, no weird prom poses.

“We could not have found a better photographer for our engagement photos. Sammie is so personable and makes it feel like she’s not taking photos of you. It just felt like my fiancé and I were hanging out with her. She was so great with my dog as well. I cannot say enough good things about her. I highly recommend choosing Sammie as your photographer.”
—Lauren and Justin
“Sammie O'Neal did an incredible job capturing the special moments for our entire family - everything from our granddaughter's first birthday to our son's engagement and even a branding photo shoot for our business, Fisher's Off-Road. Sammie is an INCREDIBLE photographer - I especially love how she captures the "in the moment" images! She is very personable and goes above and beyond to capture exactly what we want. And did I mention the fast turn-around time to get our images back! We use Sammie for all”
