Sam and the ghosts
A few years back I used to work with Sam every few weeks. She was one of my go to models. These days, Sam is busier with life and doesn't have as much time for modelling. A pity, but life moves on.

About me:
I can mostly be found shooting models, aviation, motorsports and, when I can, wildlife. But I enjoy most aspects of photography. You can find more of my work on the links below.
