概要

Experienced Media Producer with a strong focus on creating captivating visuals through photography and videography. With over a decade of international experience in the media production field, I have developed a deep understanding of successful production workflows.

I began my journey as a production assistant, working with various production houses and photography studios in the Gulf. This experience provided me with valuable insights into the intricacies of media production. I then seized an opportunity to work as a Product Photographer at a boutique studio in Dubai, where I honed my skills for three years before relocating to Pakistan.

In Pakistan, I embarked on a career in the home textile industry, which later transitioned into the realm of fashion and apparel. My unique approach to eCommerce media production has proven effective in helping businesses generate sales through visually appealing product images. It is a passion that has consistently driven my career forward.

In recent years, I have expanded my role to include directing fashion campaigns and web shoots. I actively participate in the pre-production process, from creating mood boards to coordinating fashion models, stylists, and scouting locations. My comprehensive services assist apparel brands in showcasing their clothing ranges on websites, driving successful sales, and effectively conveying their brand stories.

I would be thrilled to connect with you and provide further details about my expertise and accomplishments. Let's discuss how my skills and experience can contribute to the success of your projects.
