Hello and welcome

I'm Sam, a Shooting PD with a cinematic eye and a passion for storytelling. Experienced in observational documentary and branded content, I thrive in fast-paced environments, making informed narrative decisions on the fly.

Above all, I love what I do.

So, get in touch if you think we’d work well together

Call of the Serengeti

Directing “Call of the Serengeti” was a unique opportunity to blend my passion for conservation storytelling with the hands-on approach of self-shooting in one of the most dynamic environments on Earth.

We set out to create a visual narrative that felt both intimate and cinematic – capturing the beauty of the Serengeti while staying true to the human connection at the heart of their journey.

I believe in using film to inspire, inform, and protect – and I hope this story does just that.
