I am a Fashion Editorial & Portrait Photographer based in London. My photographs combine narrative energy and emotional truth — images that feel both editorially sharp and deeply human.
My creative journey began at Central Saint Martins and Parsons School of Design, where I immersed myself in fashion, photography, and visual culture. I opened an art space in Brick Lane to explore British-Asian identity through image, sound, and performance, collaborating with artists such as Talvin Singh and Soundz from the Asian Underground scene.
At that time, the creative industries were different — and so was I. I felt constrained, unable to fully express myself, and chose a more stable path to support my young family. I retrained in business psychology, which led to senior roles in arts and cultural policy and ultimately to leadership in Diversity, Equity & Inclusion.
Throughout those years, photography remained my constant — a means of creative expression that kept me human while navigating the machinery of corporate life. What began as a way to stay connected evolved into a substantial body of work, now recognised on major stages:
Long-listed twice for the Taylor Wessing Photographic Portrait Prize / Exhibited at the National Portrait Gallery (2018 & 2024)
Winner, British Journal of Photography’s Portrait of Britain 2024
Shortlisted, British Journal of Photography’s Portrait of Britain 2025 (winners to be announced)
During my corporate years, I created opportunities to merge my passions and was commissioned to use photography as a tool for engagement and dialogue around inclusion. My exhibitions, shown at Mansion House, The Law Society, Linklaters, KPMG, Deloitte, PwC, the Bank of England, and Hogan Lovells, invited audiences to explore creating organisatins that valued difference as strength. I have photographed leaders and cultural figures including Dame Tanni Grey-Thompson, Gok Wan, Sir Trevor Phillips, and Sir Nicholas Serota.
Today, I have come full circle. I dedicate myself fully to fashion, editorial, and portrait photography, bringing together my fine art foundation, lived experience, and a deep understanding of people and culture. My images are crafted to resonate beyond the surface — fashion with depth, portraits with story
