Studio76

my name is yahya khateeb & i'm a commercial photographer in damascus- syria, specializing in creating dramatic photographs of people, sports, action & concepts. i use location photography combined with lighting effects to create truly unique images. my love of photography has evolved over the years, and now seems to have branched out to the extreme sides of the spectrum. on one hand, i love making epic contrast lights. the possibilities are endless, as are the hours spent on it. it's an obsession, really. on the other hand, i yearn for being outside, away from the studio, no lighting equipment, getting back to the kind of photography that got me started in the first place - shooting portraits under sun light. shooting with such limitations is very liberating. either way, as i move forward, i want to focus more and more on telling stories, not only with photographs, but with films as well. i love what i do!
