Creative photographer specializing in architectural and fine art photography.
IranWhat I'm looking for
I am a passionate photographer currently pursuing a Master of Fine Arts at the University of Iceland. With a solid foundation in photography, I hold a Master of Art Studies from the Art University of Isfahan, where my thesis explored the ontological aspects of photography in historical contexts. My academic journey has been enriched by my role as a teaching assistant, where I guided undergraduate students and contributed to their artistic development.
As a freelance architecture photographer and B&W darkroom manager since 2016, I have honed my skills in capturing the essence of architectural designs while managing a darkroom dedicated to black-and-white photography. My experience extends to leading photography teams and managing research and development projects at Bnacs, a professional photography firm in Iran. I am committed to innovation in photography, blending technical proficiency with creative expression.
