HI, I'M SAM.

I founded Sharpi Studios in 2020, somewhere between lockdown and a bedroom full of Zoom lectures.

Growing up, my dad was a wildlife artist who photographed the Scottish landscapes he painted, so cameras were always part of the furniture. Combine that with a background in digital marketing, and I like to think I bring a bit more than just a good eye to a shoot.

My approach is self-sufficient and driven, but always centred on collaboration and delivering exactly what you need.

Over the years I've travelled the world and worked with some of the biggest names around, though every project gets the same attention regardless of size.

He was incredibly professional, captured the essence of the brand and the space beautifully, and delivered high-quality content with a fast turnaround time. He translated the energy of the brand and environment into a strong narrative for the brand.”

BSPOQ

We’ve worked with Sam at Bspoq and, quite simply, his work is world class. The quality, attention to detail, and consistency he brings is on another level, at every shoot he delivers standout imagery that genuinely elevates the brands we work with.
On top of that, he’s a brilliant person to deal with. Professional, reliable, easy to communicate with, and just gets it. I can’t recommend him highly enough.

HAZLEWOOD GARDENING

"I’ve worked with Sam at Sharpi Studios on a few of our garden projects now and couldn’t recommend him enough.

The photos are class – he just gets how to shoot outdoor spaces properly, from the overall layout right down to the small details. It’s made a big difference to how we show our work.

He’s also easy to work with on site, just cracks on and knows what he’s doing without making it a big thing.

If you’re in landscaping or anything design related and need good photos, he’s your man."
