INFO

I'm a London & Cardiff based architectural photographer. My interest in photography began with landscapes, while living at the foothills of the majestic Karakoram mountain range in Pakistan during childhood.

It is through this perspective that I also photograph urban landscapes, as architecture often imitates nature.

My journey to specialising in architectural photography has been unconventional; with sources of inspiration coming from the delicate motifs, calligraphy and geometric patterns of Moorish, Mughal and other Islamic architectural styles - to Modernist, Brutalist and Contemporary designs. Whether photographing a dilapidated warehouse or large office building, I work to emphasize each project’s distinct characteristics - how the structure catches light, the flow of its facade, the way it relates to its surrounding environment and community. In addition, I have worked within a graphics design team for over 9 years, which is evident through my technique, as I accentuate symmetry, detail and an uncompromising eye for design in each captured image.

Just as refined skills and exceptional attention to detail are required for a great piece of architecture, it is important to capture the essence of an architectural subject or space through photography using the same finesse. I also understand that clients working on projects will want to obtain the best images possible to document their creativity, values and achievements.

Examples of my work include documenting renovations and building sites from the initial stages of construction through to completion, while working closely with clients to ensure all their requirements are met, through to the delivery of high-resolution post produced images.
