Eli Samuel’s path to photography wasn’t a straight line. Born in Australia and raised in Thailand, he spent years searching for the thing that truly lit him up. For a while, he thought he’d found it elsewhere, but photography kept calling. What started as a side project quickly became the way he made sense of the world.

Eli’s work is beautifully weird—bold, bombastic, and full of life. He’s drawn to the raw, the unexpected, the moments that say more than words ever could. His photography isn’t just about capturing an image; it’s about capturing a feeling, a spark, something real.

Now based in Austin, Texas, Eli creates striking imagery with depth and energy. He thrives on collaboration, working with people, clients, and brands to craft visuals that don’t just look good but leave an impact.
