Just one more of those pesky street photographers 🙃

Photography was my first passion. Although I developed many more, it remained my constant companion and source of inspiration over the years.

I am an amateur photographer, as in "it is my hobby"… a word with an Arabic origin, which translates to "my love”.

My profession is not in the arts, I therefore don’t care that much about presentation and consistency of style. Photography offers so many paths, and I am interested in almost every one of them. So I experiment and don’t limit myself to one or the other, but I am being a bit disingenuous… I find myself shooting street more than anything else.

My fascination with street photography stems from its story telling quality… short but real stories. There are so many ways to tell a story, as there are street photographers. Each and every one of them is my teacher ( the well known ones and the ones I got to know in my collective ).
