About Me

Rana

Hello, I’m Rana, a fine art portrait photographer with over 20 years of experience transforming fleeting moments into timeless works of art. My approach is deeply artistic and intentionally unconventional. Each image I create is more than just a photograph; it’s a carefully crafted visual story, infused with emotion, creativity, and a touch of the surreal.

My academic background includes a Bachelor of Arts degree (Communications & Media). This foundation, combined with years of technical expertise, allows me to craft portraits that are not only artistically refined but also rich in emotion and meaning. I don’t just take pictures, I construct scenes, chase mood and light, and sculpt every detail to create imagery that feels both personal and poetic.

My work is often described as imaginative, ethereal, and painterly. Whether I’m capturing the innocence of a newborn, the bond of a family, or a conceptual fine art portrait, I treat each session as a collaborative journey and every image as a standalone piece of art worthy of display.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of receiving multiple international awards and accolades for my work from prestigious photography organisations such as The Societies of Photographers UK, 35Awards, WPE Awards and more. My work has also been published in several photography magazines and featured on many online platforms, which has reinforced my dedication to excellence in fine art photography. But awards aside, it’s the quiet reactions, the tears, the smiles, the awe that truly affirm why I do what I do.

I believe in creating a space where my clients feel seen, safe, and celebrated. If you’re drawn to storytelling, artistry, and something a little unexpected, I’d be thrilled to create something unforgettable with you.

”Thankyou Rana for your time today capturing the beauty, innocence and time precious memories of our newborn Joseph, the relationship with his proud big sister and of our new little family.

You made us feel at ease, especially when baby was crying. You were excellent with our 3 year old when she got a bit overtired and restless and did not rush the session.

So excited to see the final masterpieces and highly recommend to all my friends and family.

Thanks again, so much. ”
