My Story

I’m Sam, a cameraman and storyteller from Dorset.

For years I travelled the world filming wildlife for documentaries and cinema films. I have worked across the world from remote rainforests to the antarctic peninsular. I have always chased the moments that show how extraordinary our home planet is and how critical our connection to nature truly is.

Sam’s Natural Habitat was born from these adventures and the insights I have gained. It’s about being present and looking at home, the ordinary, and the space around you differently. Its about small adventures close to home, and the perspectives that nature gifts us when we stop and look. Through children’s books, films, and guides, I want to make it easier for families and individuals to discover the magic in the everyday: the worm pulling a leaf underground, the acorn waiting to become a 600-year-old oak, the fossil hidden in a pebble on the beach.

This isn’t about escaping to faraway places. It’s about seeing where we already are through a different lens. My mission is simple: to inspire care for the living world, one story at a time.
