I’m Mahmoud Harb, a photographer, filmmaker, and writer based in Beirut, Lebanon. University graduate in media studies, bachelor in mass communication and fine arts. My work is mainly focused on photo & video journalism where i visually tell stories and document them, above that I'm an avid reader in philosophy and i write some extended articles in it, mixing between both i try to document and make short films from different angles and goes deep in discussing any story, this enhanced my skill in content and script writing. Beside that i developed a passion for analogue photography where i create art and document daily street life with it.
Feel free to see my work through this website!

Photography
Photography is a very broad term, and a very broad career, it started as a hobby for me since 2016. With the technological advancement any one now has a camera, either a digital one or a through his phone, and this posed the question again about what is photography? And i felt this when i sat with some old photographers and they have this feeling how this career has lost its prestige. At first glance when you ask any young and armature photographer about why he is choosing this career and what he seeks from it the most common answer would be the aesthetic side or making money from it by photo session shooting; both are legitimate to do and choose but from my perspective real professionalism in photography is when the photographer has a purpose and a message he seeks to deliver from it. This is a question i asked my self a while ago and this why i went towards photojournalism especially during the war where i found photography a way to deliver and broadcast a message.
