What were you like as a child?

Sam Webb: I was very naughty, I got moved [to] schools when I was young! I couldn’t keep still for a second (still can’t) ha! But my mam was great with me and taught me how to channel the aggression and extra energy, she even sent me to a tap dance class.

What are you doing outside modeling?

Sam Webb: I have a lot of things going on! I still do train boxing but don’t compete anymore! I have also started buying classic motorbikes with my dad and doing them up and selling them! I grew up around motorbikes and it’s definitely one of my passions! It makes me happy that I have the opportunity to do this with my dad! As we never had the money to do this when I was growing up!

Any fond memories from working with a specific photographer?

Sam Webb: The most special shoot for me was with Bruce Weber shooting me and my dad for Vogue Italia! Bruce is amazing as he not only takes amazing pictures, he wants to understand you and bring out the you in his pictures! He is inspiring when he shoots and brings out the best in me! He was great with my dad who had no clue what was going on! I will remember it forever!

How would you sum up your experience as a model?

Sam Webb: I would sum it up as a boy from Birmingham moving to London with his eyes closed and turning into a man with his eyes still opening!
