I am a South African author, photographer, and creative living on the Garden Route, South Africa.
My internationally published book, The Wanderlust Kitchen – A Spiritual Guide to Healing Recipes from Around the World, combines my three great loves: travel, photography, and food as medicine, weaving together nourishing recipes, holistic wellness insights, and journal entries from my travels. I am a recipe creator and food stylist with a deep love for food that feeds mind, body and soul.
I have spent the last 7 years photographing women in the familial space, documenting their journey from maiden to mother with a deep reverence for this powerful metamorphosis. My work is fine art, painterly and documentary. As a family photographer I am drawn to photographing families in their homes or in nature.
About Samantha Dormehl
About
I spend my days creating—guided by nature, elemental living, and the healing power of plants. As a trained yoga teacher and intuitive, my work is influenced by spiritual practices and the natural world. In my photography, I am drawn to slow, sustainable processes, including alternative printing techniques and eco-conscious darkroom practices. My creative work bridges the worlds of art, storytelling, and holistic living.
Projects
I am currently working on a film photography project exploring fertility, loss, and grief—themes that are both personal and collective.
