Rony Afif
Rony Afif, amazing, talented Dubai musician and all round nice guy, commissioned me to do some portrait photos for him last month. I first heard him play jazz standards with his equally talented brother Elie at the Fridge concert series over a year ago was hooked. I’ve subsequently photographed him playing his regular gig at [...]
Photography Tips: Positive and Negative Space
The use of negative space is an often overlooked element of composition. I consider it the most important one, however, and believe that if you can become aware of negative space you will drastically improve your image composition. In our day-to-day life we generally don’t pay any amount of concentrated attention tothe objects that surround us. We [...]
Sharmila Dance Gala
I was thrilled earlier this year to be commissioned by Sharmila Dance to cover their incredible Dance Gala at DUCTAC. It was a fantastic variety show for lovers of dance and an exciting introduction for newcomers to all kinds of styles through street, salsa, classical ballet, contemporary and modern dance. The vibrant energy and attitude [...]
Arina and Tony’s wedding
Recent wedding shoot with the lovely Arina and her husband Tony, such a fun couple! Arina’s father in law was not impressed with her choice of cake decor which resulted in some fun photos! There was dancing and lots of merriment at the Marina Yatch Club and it was great to be a part of [...]
Band shoot: Casual Jazz
A band shoot for the group Casual Jazz represented by The Fridge. I found this incredible abandoned park which was overgrown, dusty and unkempt. What a gem! With the sun setting and casting a lovely golden light it was a pleasure shooting this awesome band. You wouldn’t guess this was shot in Dubai! There was [...]

Some of my recent work includes a maternity shoot for Mouna Abassy and her gorgeous family. We had a fun two hours of posing with the cute little man – impressive work for a new born! I am particularly enamoured with the shot of grandpa with his grandchild it captures such a feeling of pride [...]
Making the most of available light
“Light makes photography. Embrace light. Admire it. Love it. But above all, know light. Know it for all you are worth, and you will know the key to photography.” – George Eastman Photography is capturing light, therefore, light is our medium, as a sculptors medium is clay. Without light there is no image, without an [...]
Jazz at Blue Bar with Afif Quartet
I had the pleasure of shooting the Afif Jazz Quartet at the Blue Bar for the Fridge last weekend . It wasn’t an easy shoot as the lighting conditions are a bit dire at the venue, but it was rewarding to capture these awesome Dubai based musicians performing and enjoying their music. A few selected [...]
The Fridge Cirque du Souq
I spent an exciting three days shooting in the Madinat Theatre for The Fridge as they prepared for their first stage show, Cirque du Souq. The performers were fantastic and awe-inspiring! Congrats to the whole team for a wonderful show! It is impossible to choose my favourites from around 1000 shots, but here is a [...]

Backstage with the Sofia Ballet
We were so lucky to have the Sofia Ballet tour Dubai at the Madinat Theatre last week. I was able to photograph backstage with them before their opening show, thanks to the company. It was fantastic being on stage with the dancers as they prepared mentally and physically for their performance: stretching, getting make-up done [...]

These shots are a selection from the Maternity shoot for Hugo and Gui (the pre- part of the new addition to the family shoot!). The post- part has already been posted, so I though it would be nice to show these.

Sculpture shoot for Joe McKeever
It was great fun shooting this incredible sculpture carved from polystyrene, firstly, because I have worked a lot in the material myself and am interested to learn about the equipment used for this piece, and secondly, because it was like an exercise in portraiture lighting techniques, with the shadows contrasting beautifully on the white surface [...]

Usman: Portfolio Shoot
The first portfolio shoot in my new studio space. Terribly exciting! Usman is a tall, handsome Indian lad from Abu Dhabi who was given the shoot as a gift by his employers. Hopefully we can get him some commercial work. He was fantastic in front of the camera, if a little shy at first.
Closing Fridge Concert: Piso Caliente
I was utterly blown away on Monday night by the vibrance, passion, energy and talent at the Fridge’s closing concert for this series. Piso Caliente Artistic Group awed the audience with their technically and visually polished interpretation of traditional Colombian dance styles. The costumes, the choreography, and of course the dancers themselves were stunning and [...]
Fridge Concert Series: Amir Mafakher

Lightroom Tip #2: XMP files
I recently installed Lightroom 3 on a new computer and after uploading and editing a couple of shoots, I realised that I had forgotten to set up my Lightoom correctly when I installed it and so my changes weren’t being saved to XMP files. I therefore I had to go through my library and save [...]
