    http://aisha-a-a.tumblr.com Combing 35mm film and DSLR photography, my work can be described as dark, voyeuristic, controversial, contortion of reality, the interplay between light and shadows. I also aim to present the everyday as other-worldly. Small things like something lying on a concrete floor may at first seem banal, but I like to capture it in a way that makes the viewer appreciate the small, quiet and beautiful details that colour everyday life. I have a lot of experience in fashion photography and have worked for several blogs, tailoring my vision to suit the client's needs while always maintaining my signature of intimate details, bold statements and the human form, which is what attracts people to my work.
