Meet Samson
Photographer / Artist / Storyteller
Hi! I’m Samson and I live along the Costa de la Luz in Southern Spain with my beautiful wife Talisa. After immersing myself in the creative industry for over a decade, I unearthed a deep love for photography. Through extensive travels worldwide, capturing the beauty of our planet through my lens I discovered a passion and inspiration to photograph people and document genuine moments and stories unfolding in front of me.
EDITORIAL, AUTHENTIC & FULL OF GOOD VIBES
I’ve always been an artist in some form and felt that I saw the world a little differently from others, but when I picked up a camera, a whole new realm opened up. My perception became clearer—the colors of the tide, shadows cast by a building, the silhouette of a person, light streaming through the trees—these ordinary, everyday occurrences became like magic as I witnessed them as if for the first time.
I carry this sense with me every day and love to let beautiful, simple moments unfold naturally as I capture what’s in front of me through a blend of intention, intuition, and playful experimentation.
Whether I’m photographing a beautiful wedding in a far-off corner of the globe or a private portrait shoot somewhere in nature, I approach every project with the same energy—focusing on the visual story behind the image.
Creating with Intention, Intuition and Playful Experimentation
My Approach
Although it can feel a little vulnerable in front of the camera at first, love and happiness will always overpower nerves, especially with your partner by your side. Within my approach I focus on creating a space for you to just be you —a space where you can feel comfortable, joyful, and connected in the present. A space where there’s nowhere else to be but in the moment together. This is where we create art through your love and connection.
I absolutely love that no two weddings or sessions are the same—the light, the location, the people, the magical moments. It’s the spontaneous laughter, the heartfelt speeches, and the tearful glances that make each day unique, and those are the moments I love to capture. I’m always observing, moving, and encapsulating the essence of the day so you don’t just have beautiful photos but a sense of the whole experience. It’s like you can smell the air, feel the sun on your skin, and hear the laughter of your loved ones.
For most couples, the wedding flies by in a blur. My own wedding was seven years ago, and it passed in the blink of an eye. As the years go by, my memories of the day become a little vague, but the visual story of the day will forever live on in the photographs, for which I’m eternally grateful. As the photographer, time moves very differently—almost as if in slow motion. I see it all unfolding like a beautiful movie. While I’m connected to the day, I’m also separate from the experience, which allows me to see it from a completely different perspective. It’s not just a wedding; it’s a vibrant piece of art being painted in the moment.
I know firsthand the impact of having a wedding documented in images, and I feel so blessed that I can now provide this for others. This is why I’m so dedicated to my work and to the connection I build with my couples.
I’m deeply proud of the work I do, but even more so of the process behind it. I never take for granted the choice couples make to book me, and I truly value the trust they place in me to capture their most beautiful memories.
A Little More
There’s so much I enjoy in life that my days are filled with passions. I could live twice over and still not have enough time in my day to do everything I want. But that’s the great thing about life, the possibilities are endless and how we decide to fill our time is what helps mould us into the people we are.
As well as a photographer I am also a trained illustrator and designer and spent many years creating editorial illustration for magazines. I try my hand at painting from time to time but it doesn’t come very naturally to me but I recently started clay sculpting which I’m loving!
My other big passion is health and fitness and I train in some form of strength and movement practice daily. I love to move my body and keep it in the best physical shape I can, whether that’s primal movements, bodyweight training or just climbing a tree. I love to exercise in nature and feel grounded to the earth. I’m also an avid surfer and will get in the water as much as I can. I grew up inland and always wanted to surf so I spent 2 years in Bali surfing twice a day to achieve my childhood dream.
10 years ago I met the woman of my dreams, I packed up my life and we spent the last decade on the road travelling from country to country. We were always looking for a place to call home but really home was wherever we were together. We’ve now found our permanent base in Southern Spain where we’re finally putting now roots.
