My friend Marianne recently led me to Sam's work. I must say, it's hard to for me to sit down these days and get inspired by every image on someone's website. What is inspiring to me about his work is that it's so slice of life, and personality driven, and most of all mostly natural light. Within that natural slice of life element, he has strong concepts through out most of his images that resonate with the personality he's shooting. He's shot many amazing Esquire editorials as well as covers.
I just received his book, The Here and Now in the mail, and it's fantastic. Definitely recommend it as a book for your coffee table.
Just about a month ago I was flipping through one of his collections at Chapters! I almost bought it, I absolutely LOVE his work!!

man, Sam's been a fave of mine for awhile now. So classic, timeless and conceptual without being over the top.
