Samaba config

Is it possible to configure a samba share with mixed folder permissions such that:

Samaba share structure

Photos\
Photos\Toms_photos
Photos\Dicks_photos
Photos\Harrys_photos

All users have read permissions to photos and sub folders, but only Tom has write permissions for Toms_photos, only Dick has write permssion for Dicks_photos etc

See the "read list, write list" section from the below link. It may helpful.

Thanks for the suggestion. Thats sort of what I'm after, but that would affect the entire share; in my example above the 'photos' folder/share and not the sub-folders. The only way to do it would be to have 3 shares, one for each persons photos. That could leave me with a lot of shares!
