Hi, I'm Maryam, a portrait and vacation photographer based in Porto who's allergic to stiff poses and forced smiles. Six plus years in, one photography business built from scratch, and a media and communication degree that mostly taught me people are more interesting when they forget the camera's there. I shoot in natural light, chase real moments over perfect ones, and switch effortlessly between English and Urdu depending on who I'm making laugh. Fun fact: I know more of Porto's best photo spots than most of the locals, wink.
