Sam Tidwell is a dynamic photographer based in Atlanta, Georgia, with a passion for capturing both action and emotion.

As a SAG-AFTRA stunt performer, lifelong athlete, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu competitor, and now photographer, movement is more than just her subject—it’s her language. Her firsthand experience in front of the lens gives her a rare insight behind it, allowing her to perfectly capture those fleeting moments when action and emotion align, freezing them with both precision and artistry.

Specializing in sports, event, and street photography, Sam is always in pursuit of the unrepeatable moment. Her mission is simple yet profound: to notice the unnoticed, freeze it in time, and present it back to you as something timeless you can hold onto.
