who am I? About Me

PERSONAL SUMMARY

I have considerable skills in photography and filmmaking, I am the winner of 3

international gold medals in photography, 2 FIAP honor ribbons, more than 15 diplomas of

honor and the best photographer award in 35 awards and various other international

festivals. I am very interested in aerial photography, especially aerial photography with

drones, and I have about 20 years of experience in the field of photography, filmmaking

and photography teaching.

I live in Dubai as a freelance photographer.

The last film I made in Iran was a 13-episode series titled “Higher than Fars”, which was

produced and broadcast in Fars province on the order of Iran Television Network.

I have already experienced such a documentary project with ITV UK and RT France.

I also worked with several news agencies as a photographer.

I have written several specialized books, including teaching aerial photography techniques with drones.

I am interested in genres, sports, food, fashion, architecture, tourism, portraits, landscape, documentaries, nature, events, music and aerial photography.
