Sam Fourie Photographic Artist

Graphic Designer, Photographer, Videographer

I am a photographer and website hosting developer, born and bred in Alberton, who now lives in the town of Napier in the Overberg region of the Western Cape. I’ve lived in many small dorps and big cities across the country, and have shot many moments along the way.

I developed a love for the visual image when I, once upon a time, worked for the marketing research company AC Nielsen. As part of the job, I travelled extensively from shop to shop where I encountered not only the subject matter I was meant to be studying but all manner of people and places, fascinating to watch and continually captured with my mind’s eye. Not really knowing what I wanted to do at the time, young as I was, I fell into the computer industry and maintained a career in either supporting or programming various aspects of Windows software and the Internet software realm. I designed, hosted and supported syndicated web hosting solutions – in other words, websites that create presence throughout the internet in South Africa via a website system that I designed. It’s an area in which I am still extremely comfortable (and active) today … but my passion, now, is photography.
