She guesses she is a Cali girl at heart and dreams of one day living in Bali or Hawaii. She has worked as a graphic designer in Los Angeles, toured as a musician playing her fiddle, which she can be seen playing in the film Titanic. She became a photographer 8 years ago, while living in Ireland. She currently works as a surf and travel lifestyle photographer in a small fishing village called Taghazout, in Morocco, with her daughter Sienna and their cat, Banjo. She is also the author of ongoing blog Salty Roses by the sea, a mother and daughter story of leaving a conventional world behind to find a creative, surf-lifestyle in a Moroccan fishing village.In this interview Samantha and Caitlin talk about:– the actionable steps she took to begin building her surf lifestyle photography business, while living in inner-city Brussels, Belgium.– the logistical challenges of moving to Morocco, and the lessons she learned and insights she gained through that process– balancing creativity, career and life as a single motherYou can find more of Samantha’s work at:Photography:https://www.samanthahuntphotography.com/Salty Roses by the Sea (blog):https://www.saltyrosesbythesea.com/If you are interested in Samantha creating a custom moodboard / color palette for your social media or business page, you can email her here.Samanthahuntphoto@gmail.com
