Things To Know

Hi, I’m Sam! Welcome to my blog!

I’m a passionate landscape and outdoor photographer who sells limited edition fine art photos, and also writes a blog sharing my photography and travel experiences.

Camera, Coffee and Cabernet is the title as these are my 3 essentials in life - Coffee in the morning, Cabernet in the evening, and the Camera everywhere in between. Read the full story here.

My goal is to educate, inspire and encourage photo travellers to explore and improve their photography.
I'm sharing my experiences, learnings, mistakes and laughs honestly and openly to inspire you to get out and enjoy our beautiful world through photography and travelling.

Please feel free to reach out to share or ask any questions you may have, I would love to connect
