Issa

Issa Saleh AlKindy, an Omani photographer, was reared in several countries across the
Middle East and North Africa. His exposure to different cultures from an early age sparked
a curiosity and infused in him an appreciation for ethnic heritage and modern traditions.
These elements are evident in his photography, as they are depicted in assorted images of
people, landscapes, and abstract forms.

Issa’s appreciation for the fine arts began in his adolescent years. His interest in
photography was an accidental by-product of his effort to improve his drawing techniques.
In high school, he enrolled in a photography course to learn to capture images of subjects
he was interested in drawing or painting. Over the years, he developed an admiration for
photography as an artistic medium of expression that enables him to convey a unique point
of view when capturing a fleeting moment in time. He strives to portray the significance of
that moment through a picture.

Issa is continuously evolving his skills by challenging himself to explore new techniques and
to view common images from an uncommon perspective. He has participated in various
photographic workshops taught by internationally renowned photographers.

His work has been featured in the Oman Sail Official Campaign magazine, and has received
recognition in various competitions, such as the National Geographic Daily Dozen and the
Desert Fish Talent Code/UNICEF Campaign.

After a fifteen-year sales and marketing career with various corporations, Issa has decided
to pursue his passion for photography professionally. He currently resides with his wife
in Dubai, UAE and offers various photography services for individuals, organizations, and
corporations.
