01

Product Launch Activation

Sam features your product organically in the shoot — a camera, a printer, a phone. The brand lives inside the content, not in front of it.

02

Event Presence

Bring Sam to your event. Guests get a candid portrait. Your brand is the reason it happened. Authentic, shareable, unforgettable.

03

Dedicated Sponsored Post

A fully custom content piece built around your brand with Sam's signature style. 1–2M organic views, guaranteed authentic feel.

04

Long-Term Partnership

Monthly integration across all content. First mover advantage for category exclusivity — printers, phones, editing apps, and more.

05

Film & TV Promotion

Sam shoots a cast member on set, at a premiere, or in a location tied to the project. The portrait reveal doubles as press — without feeling like press.

06

Music, Tours & Live Events

Backstage, before the show, or at the venue. Artists and performers get a portrait. You get content that fans actually share — because the moment is genuinely real.

07

Fan Moment Experience

Sam shoots a fan who gets surprised with artist access. Both get a portrait. It's the most shareable format in entertainment — built entirely around a real, unscripted reaction.

08

Destination / Travel Sponsorship

Sponsor Sam's next trip. Your brand travels with him — woven into every street, every stranger, every portrait from that city. Not a placement. A chapter of the story.

09

Tourism Board / City Partnership

Bring Sam to your city. He shoots the streets, the people, the culture — and hands them their portrait. The most authentic city content money can't usually buy.
