"One should not only photograph things for what they are, but for what else they are."
– Minor White
My name is Cameran Ashraf. I enjoy photography as a creative meditation which roots me in my inner life.
Much of my photography is through pinhole film cameras, where I have no viewfinder and must follow my intuition to create a photograph. It is a wonderful and rich experience.
My initial foray into photography focused on solar astrophotography, and I named my site Heliographic after a device used to photograph the sun. My work has broadened beyond our beautiful star, and I am happy to share it with you.
You can learn more about my professional background in human rights and technology at my personal site.
Thank you for visiting. Please enjoy my photography.
