Shoot the Breeze: Adrian Samson

Adrian Samson is a Slovakian-born photographer, now living and working in North-East London. With an impressive list of commercial clients such as Xbox, Microsoft, and T-mobile, it’s not surprising that Adrian’s personal work resembles eerily manicured stock photography. Adrian  first learned about photography from his father at the age of 8. Having since mastered the use of light inside and out of the studio, Adrian can make even a glass of water look cinematic and intriguing. – CM
