Fujifilm X Photographer

I am delighted and very proud to be one of the official Fujifilm X- Photographer, to be featured alongside some fantastic photographers from around the world and to work with a brand that is leading the way in imaging technology.

One of the main reasons why I joined Fuji film is not only the advanced technology or image quality but also because the company has built a solid reputation in listening to its customers and ambassadors and utilizing their feedback to improve the system and the experience.

My role as an Ambassador includes speaking at Fuji events, working with Fuji to review new products and conducting workshops and much more.

As a photographer I frequently traveled for brand assignments, shooting for my clients, conducting workshops and privately, however recently it was quite hard to travel due to the Covid-19 restrictions, nevertheless I managed to do a short trip to the White Desert in the Western Desert of Egypt. A place I often visited and know by heart. A place, where I feel serenity and where I conducted several photography workshops in the past.

Why I chose the Western Desert in Egypt for my first assignment with FujiFilm?

As you may know, traveling these days during Covid-19 is not an easy thing. Europe is on lockdown, many countries in the GCC are not even accepting visitors & it is becoming challenging to travel to any part of the world. So, I left with limited options and Egypt was among them.

I decided to plan a short trip to the White Desert, located at Al Farafra depression, 500km away from Cairo. The White Desert, a dramatic chalk landscape in western Egypt that offers a surreal landscape. Millions of years ago the desert was a seabed. Layers of sedimentary rock were exposed when the ocean retreated and a plateau broke down. A natural rock formation open air museum was left behind.

The Western Desert will make you feel like you’ve landed on the surface of the moon. Incredible chalk rock formations and some stones formations resisted time’s changes, giving the White Desert its distinct features and unique look and picturistique.
