For your milestones, your people, and yourself.

Close, in your own way.
01 The sessions
Open any photograph to view it larger.
You, together
For the quiet understanding, the easy laughter, and everything that feels like the two of you. Whether you’re celebrating an engagement or making time for each other, we’ll shape a session around your connection.
Let’s plan a couples session
Your people, as they are
The familiar closeness. The big personalities. The little ones with their own ideas. Family photographs can hold all of that. My approach leaves space for movement, affection, and the way your family naturally fits together.
Ask about a family session
A little more yourself
A photograph can introduce you before you say a word, or mark a moment you want to remember. From graduation and individual portraits to headshots for your work, we’ll make space for an expression that feels considered, comfortable, and recognizably yours.

02 The person behind the camera
Hi, I’m Tarek.
Based in Torrance, I photograph couples, families, graduates, and individuals in Los Angeles and the South Bay.
I’m interested in what makes a photograph feel like a person: a familiar gesture, a bit of character, the way someone relaxes around the people they love.
You don’t have to arrive knowing what to do in front of a camera. We’ll start with a conversation. I’ll offer direction when it helps and leave room for you to be yourself.
03 How it begins
You don’t need to have it all figured out.
We’ll find the details together.
Start with the kind of session you’re thinking about and any dates or ideas you have. Use the inquiry form below, or email me directly.
We’ll discuss the feeling you’re after, availability, pricing, and the practical details. It’s a chance to ask questions and get to know each other.
Together, we’ll settle on a location, timing, and approach that suit your session, so you know what to expect when we meet.
A few things you might be wondering
You don’t have to arrive knowing what to do. We’ll start with a conversation, and I’ll offer direction when it helps, with room for you to be yourselves.
An idea is enough to begin. Share a rough timeframe, or say you’re still exploring. If you’d like location suggestions, include that in your inquiry.
Tell me which kind of session you have in mind and any preferred dates. We can discuss pricing and availability around your plans before settling the details.
