Selected work

The work I’m proudest of started as community work.

A meaningful part of my calendar goes to non-profit and professional-community events — including Muslims Achieving Excellence (MAX) and its collaborations with firms like McCarthy Tétrault and KPMG. Same standard, same turnaround, same care as any corporate booking.

MAX × McCarthy Tétrault

An evening hosted inside a national law firm, built around Muslims Achieving Excellence and the professionals it brings together. The brief was simple and difficult at once: photograph a room of lawyers, students and community leaders without making anyone feel photographed.

The room: Low, mixed light. No flash on faces, no interruptions to the programme.
The approach: Quiet lens work from the edges, then close-in candids once the room settled.
The delivery: Speaker frames, mentorship moments and a clean set of wide room shots for recaps.

MAX × KPMG collaboration

A collaboration between MAX and KPMG focused on mentorship and career pathways. Daylight boardroom, tight schedule, and a need for images that work equally well in a recap deck, on LinkedIn and in a sponsorship report.

The room: Hard window light and glass on every side — managed in-camera, not rescued in post.
The approach: Panel coverage first, then unposed hallway conversations where the real story lives.
The delivery: Landscape and vertical crops from the same frames, colour-matched across the set.

Why it matters to the corporate side

Community rooms teach you to read a room fast.

Non-profit events run on volunteers, borrowed venues and schedules that move. Working in those conditions is exactly what makes a conference floor, a gala or an executive headshot day feel calm. Nothing gets staged that shouldn’t be, and nothing important gets missed.
