Sammy Allen, a seasoned photographer with a decade of practice under her belt, is an artist whose photography does much more than capture moments. With a focus on the interplay of light and shadow, Sammy’s work embodies an attention to detail and an understanding of the nuances of lighting. She uses this skill not merely as a tool, but as a language to articulate narratives and evoke emotions within her imagery.
Sammy’s not only a creative photographer here in Phoenix, but a lighting tech, studio hand, film developer and now educator. She loves to travel, read, and hang with her cat Heart.
