ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHER. I began my photography career in 2012 as product, fashion and portrait photographer in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. I had left my 9 years logistics job when my previous company considered our position as redundant. Then I pursue a career in photography with a little formal training and experience.

I was fortunate as part of the photography group Strobist UAE as core member which influenced my photographic creativity and greatful to met some fashion designers, stylists, make-up artists and models for collaborating in making of our respective portfolios.

It has been a pleasure working with CitrussTv that enhance my skills as product photographer and Attitude Enterprises for evolving myself in a different field in photography and DSLR videography where most of our shoots were for corporate video promo ad and the likes. To name some of the clients we had were FashionOne TV, Yahoo OMG Arabia and more prestigious company in Dubai.
