About

I’m Sam, based in Cornwall, making video and photos mostly of surf and friends. Walrus is about celebrating in each other’s wave-riding and it’s the shared joy of capturing friend’s waves that keeps me going back out with my camera in hand.

I am grateful to have been shortlisted for London Surf Film Festival (LSSF) The Shorties in 2024 and featured in publications including Surfline, Surf Girl, Carve, Wavelength, MagicSeaweed, Local, Saltwater, Surf Visuals, WeBodyboard.

If you have a project you would like to collaborate on, I’d be interested to hear your idea!

  • "Walrus, like the majority of marine mammals, is happiest when he’s in the water. A creative beast, his keen eye and opposable thumbs have led to photography being his artistic medium of choice. He specialises in images of waves, taken from the water in and around his natural habitat of Porthleven. Big waves, small waves, empty waves or sometimes waves ridden by other local marine mammals known as ‘surfers,’ Walrus strives to catch the drama, emotion and beauty of the sea in his images. In recent months, he has been observed venturing onto the shore in search of new and interesting angles of the waves to capture in his images, as well as portraits of the creatures who choose to ride them."
