1. Tell me a little about yourself.
I am a Chicago born Pakistani photographer living in New Jersey. I love to find unusual abstracts and angles allowing the ordinary to appear extraordinary. I zoom in and bring light to the details of things around me. Creating abstracts and bringing attention to textures and patterns. My husband and I, along with our three year old boy and newborn love to travel enabling me to capture my adventures in bold, high contrast, dramatic photographs.
2. Where does your inspiration come from when crafting?
Everything! I love repetitive patterns, different types of architecture, I like to take something seemingly ordinary, overlooked and make it extraordinary.
3. Who taught you and how did you learn to craft?
I took photography as a minor in college.. and learnt the basics there.. and I continued to hone my skills and develop my point of view every day.
4. Any Specific Tips you have for newbie crafters starting a business in etsy?

5. Name 3 websites you couldn’t live without.
