We Are Seeing Things
Yes, this is a job in many ways but its more than that. We don't take every job that comes our way; we prioritize opportunities that help us grow - as individuals and as a collective. We also want to be involved in generating ideas for our clients - in fact, that is what our clients expect from us in today's cookie cutter/copy-paste clutter we often see populating our social media feeds.
We also care about the development of the team and our Director, Mohamed Somji is always at hand to mentor and encourage us to produce work, to try new things and is supportive of us pursuing personal projects and using our resources to facilitate personal development. Mohamed also runs Gulf Photo Plus which is Dubai's center of photography and hosts photography exhibitions, talks and an annual festival.
When you aren't shooting for our clients, we fully encourage you to take full advantage of our 2000sqft studio space to experiment and create, to collaborate, to use the downtime to do personal work.
