About

Omar builds images for brands that need to be looked at twice — studio-lit or on location, the throughline is control: of light, of wardrobe, of the exact half-second an expression reads as real.

Based between Cairo and Riyadh, he shoots fashion, streetwear and product-on-model campaigns for independent labels and sportswear names alike — from an Adidas × Al Ahly campaign to jewelry editorials and the seasonal drops of Cairo's streetwear scene. Work is captured in Capture One Pro and finished in Photoshop, with art direction and set design on selected projects.
