He studied fine art and documentary photography at UCA Farnham, learning traditional printing techniques and research-based practice. His early projects focussed on photographing fringe societies in parts of rural England and he wrote his dissertation around the subject of aftermath photography in the wake of war and natural disaster.

A regular collaborator with some of the most notable fashion houses in the industry, Samuel has photographed their collections, but is often enlisted for his photographs of wild flowers, idiosyncratic urban details and expansive landscapes. Select commissions include: AnOther, British Vogue, Burberry, Gucci, Hermes, Jo Malone, Noah, Norse Projects, T Magazine, US Vogue, Visvim, and WSJ Magazine.
