I am a Paris-based photographer, director and visual storyteller with nearly two decades of professional experience creating portrait, editorial, commercial and documentary photography. My work combines cinematic lighting, thoughtful composition and authentic storytelling to create images that are both visually striking and emotionally meaningful.

Throughout my career, I have collaborated with international brands, creative agencies, magazines and independent artists, producing visual content that communicates identity, builds emotional connections and tells stories that resonate. Whether working on a commercial campaign, an editorial commission or a long-term documentary project, my goal is always the same: to create images with purpose, honesty and lasting impact.

My approach begins long before the camera is picked up. Every project starts with understanding the people, the brand or the story behind the assignment. From concept development and visual research to lighting design, direction and post-production, I believe every creative decision should support a clear narrative. Rather than simply documenting a subject, I strive to create photographs that reveal character, atmosphere and emotion.

Alongside my commercial work, I have spent years developing long-term personal projects that explore identity, culture and human experience. One of the most significant is External Iran, an ongoing documentary and photographic project created across dozens of cities and villages throughout Iran. Through hundreds of portraits and documentary images, the project challenges stereotypes and presents a more personal and diverse perspective of Iranian identity.

My background in advertising, product and still-life photography gave me a deep understanding of light, composition and visual precision, while years of portraiture and documentary work strengthened my ability to build trust and genuine relationships with people in front of the camera. This combination allows me to move comfortably between commercial commissions and personal storytelling, bringing the same attention to detail and authenticity to every project.

Beyond photography, I have also worked as a director, educator and creative lead. Teaching photography and post-production for many years has shaped the way I communicate ideas, collaborate with creative teams and guide productions from concept to final delivery. I believe strong visual work is created through curiosity, preparation and collaboration.

Today, I work internationally from Paris, collaborating with brands, publications, agencies and individuals across Europe and beyond. Whether producing commercial photography, editorial stories, portraits or documentary projects, I aim to create imagery that is timeless, intentional and memorable.

For me, photography has never been about simply capturing appearances.

It is about revealing presence.
