Hi, I did this because i need a special assistant, a special one for commercial and retouching urgent work i will have this year. I am going to have a special course in the middle of September for a week, will be teaching the trainees everything from photoshoots with models to editing, all of them will get the information that they need to be a fashion photographer in the future. I will select two of them, one for the retouching and editing work ( retoucher ), and the other one for assisting during the shoot. ( photographer assistant ) both are important and they will get a special certificate and one year experience. More information will be a surprise
this course will be fun fun fun :) the group will be limited and selective

Today I went to check on my deviant art page, and I was getting many comments and congrats at the same time, could it be? then i checked to find out i got my first Daily Deviation!! i was jumping from happiness and didn't know what to do i was sooo happy and checking every comment make me happier, really appreciate who recommended me and who chose me for the DD.
I captured the moments for the first DD in the DeviantArt page and here are the photos. the photo is part of my collection of my photobook "Movements"
I'm sorry for being late for posting the photos of the event and also snap shots for the book, i hope you will enjoy viewing.
the book contains photos that talk about some feelings and emotions for the places i attended to go in each emirate, and how do i see it in my point of view as an artist.
Special thanks to Canon for all the features they gave me and lending me their Canon EOS-1D Mark IV with lenses. which made me in love with it and bought it after that.
so Kaya Skin Care for publishing & sponsoring my book and how did they care about it and really gave attention and interest.

to all the press who covered it too
special thanks to Dubai Internation Airport <- one of the best and fav airport in the world. DubaiStudios for giving me the permissiotions to shoot around Dubai. Also, to designer Feryal Albastaki for her amazing gowns and helping me during the shoots in GoldSouq, and Dubai Zayed Road, to my lovely MUA, Farah Alshohomy for her Makeup style and transformation for the model in the past and present.

to My parents for understanding and help and thanks to all of you for the ideas and support for this book and this results are for you.
to the most important thing thank to god, because without god and believe, none of this would happen, i faced big challenge and many problems that was so close to not completing the book but by believing of god and everything could be possible, this happen.
I must say I was so luck to attend such an exclusive exhibition in London, at my fav. Victoria & Albert V&A Museum.
There is a new film under the name of "Victoria" I recommend you to watch to have an idea about the story of them. It's amazing place that always contains great exhibitions.
I was planning the other day what shall i wear for such a visit for a style Icon, my fav bag, outfits and shoes. something that presents my taste. It's always exciting to me whenever i go to a fashionshow, exhibitions. I always think what shall i wear for such an accoassion.
I went to the Museum, entered the place and the first thing i saw her special gown that made for her in the same day of her marriage to Prince Rainier III of Monaco.
the exhibition contains many of her gowns and outfits from her movies and events with photos beside them and some videos of her appearance.
What did i feel? i can't describe it really, i was so happy and i captured many moments inside my mind and some gowns were really still amazing and new. oh and i saw the Kelly original bag from Hermes! and Christian Dior sunglasses so huge and fashionable.
I couldn't snap any shots really because it's not allowed
What is Grace Kelly? and why she considered to be a Style Icon among other actresses? there is a book in the other shop in the Museum which was lovely decorated shops that contain some lovely stylish items. The book talks about her life and rare photos of her and it makes me know many amazing things about her.
what made me understand that she has her own simple style, she made it herself. something make u comfy and in the same style present your style and chic. I liked the part when she used to travel and how she stayed in shape. her dresses, hermes gloves and her stylish Kelly bag. she took her bag everywhere with her. it was like a travel and chic bag. girls must know how to use the bag from her though. it doesn't matter how many bags you have, it matter of the style and how you wear it. and sometimes only one bag can do many tasks and here you can be a smart and fashionable.
there is an article included in the book : How to travel light - yes it's an old article but it works really if you travel to several places and you wanna stay in good look
oh yes! there is also her special gown in Rear Window movie, one of my fav. it shows how Alfred is a great film maker and how he can catch your full attention.
so you if you will be in London, and really love Grace Kelly and think she is a fashion Icon, then you still have a chance because the exhibition is on till 26 September.
and if you have been to London and know about it and didn't go then SHAME ON YOU :P
I hope you enjoyed this post and wait for more posts to come and sorry of my late updates. love you all
Nothing better than celebrating my unique 30 at my perfect place : London
It said ur fav place when you are a child with amazing memories becomes your life:favourite place. You find peace and forget all your worries and get positive energy from it. No matter what place could be.
They say London is different now, why u like it? I was lucky to see London the way it was and to me I always see it that way no matter what.
I'm back now in London after few yrs away. I Feel like breathing.
Writing here in Mayfair after I became 30 makes me happy. It's a great age to me. Never thought that am getting older I was always looking for that age since I was 21, it's the age of wisdom and to become complete. It's the age of looking of what you've done and what u should do. You are now in the middle of the road. I'm 30 now and I always be :)
To everyone who complete their 30's this month. Happy birthday and enjoy it
Yes finally, the book is officially done. What i've got from this experience? Being positive, try to be calm "never happened it got worse on me" lol any artistic work makes me so emotional: sad, happy angry; which made me think sometimes am I crazy? And I got a scar in my forehead. Yes I fell down and injured my forehead rushed to ER. I was trying a new bike. I don't know how this happened but I believe it meant to be somehow.
Thank god
I'm tired and I'm very glad that I finished it. Even if it wasn't the perfect book but I'm really happy that I'm done with it finally.
I would like to thank everyone who supported me to get this book out there.
Special thanks to my sponsors : Kaya Skin Care, Virgin MegaStores and Canon
Also the media and newspapers that talked about my upcoming book
Today is the day of the launch. Still not nervous at all. I don't want to think about my look maybe sunglasses will do. I'm just interested to meet my friends and fans in person tomorrow.
The launch will begin at 5 pm and at 6 will start the signing. So if u can't come at 5 u still have time till 6:30 p.m
I picked Mirdif City Centre because it's the perfect place and near everyone
The books are limited, and they are exclusively at Virgin Megastores. You can have it anytime
ok I put this photo here again for a reason, about 4 months ago, I've been told by my cousin that some of her friends had it in their background of their mobile phones, and other cousins as well, I was happy about it. Last week, a friend called me and told me everyone she knew has it as an icon in her bb list, other friends told me the same thing because my friends knew that i took that photo, yesterday my friend told me the same thing.
I would like to thank you all, this makes me happy because without knowing who is the photographer, i just knew that you liked that photo very much, they told me there is something about her holding the hair like that, I like to hear what they liked about the photo and what got their attention in.
so thank you very much for supporting and loving the work
