Hi, it’s me
I’m so excited to get to know you but first let me tell you a little about me! 

FollyBeach2023-38

photographer. believer. friend.

my full name is charlee samantha lancaster, aka charleesamphoto. i am a wedding and lifestyle photographer based out of Spartanburg, SC but i love to travel. i have a huge heart for Jesus, my precious family, and kade bowyer, my husband to be. i am also a full time hairstylist. in my spare time, apart from doing hair and taking pictures, i enjoy spending time with the most important people in my life – my fiancé, my family, my best friends and the Lord.

timeless story telling

i am constantly inspired by each and every session i have the opportunity of photographing. i believe in going above and beyond for every single client of mine. i want each person in front of my camera to feel like family.

every person has their own story and i am honored to be able to witness a few moments of your story behind the camera. i do my very best to capture the small details and raw emotions of each and every couple, family, and individual thats gives me the opportunity to capture beautiful photos that will help you relive each moment every time you look at them.

more about me

my love for photography started in 2020 when my parents bought me my first camera as a graduation gift. it was a cheap amazon camera that quickly made me fall in love with photography as more than just a job. a big part of my life is Jesus, and when i started photography it wasn’t something i ever thought could turn into a part of my testimony. i quickly came to realize, my job isn’t about glorifying myself. i do what i do to glorify the one who made it possible to love my job – Jesus Christ.


when you look at your photos, i want you to feel all of the raw emotions you felt during your session. i am a huge believer in capturing every sweet moment. i want you to look back at your photos five, ten, and twenty years down the road and remember that moment as if it were just yesterday.

that 's why i’m here

to make sure every expectation you have is exceeded
