"A Pause on the Threshold of Vision"
Every photograph is a frontier between what once was and what remains forever. Within this space, we have gathered a collection of searching gazes, artists who have mastered the art of freezing time at the intersection of reality and dreams. This is the sanctuary of those who touch the world not merely with their eyes, but through the very soul of their lenses. Each profile is a portal into a unique worldview, where the silence of the image speaks louder than any word.

Mehdi Zavvar
As an Iranian artist working primarily in portrait and fine art photography, I view photography as a universal language of communication and storytelling. While I am drawn to all genres of the medium, portraiture allows me to explore the depth of human emotion and identity. For me, photography is more than a profession; it is a passion that enables me to capture and share the nuances of life, connecting with viewers through the stories that unfold in every frame.
Ehsan Moradi
As an Iranian photographer, I explore the intersections of portrait, documentary, and conceptual photography to reflect on the human condition and the fragile balance between humanity and nature. Over the past three years, my work has evolved around themes of human rights, environmental preservation, and peace, issues that I believe define our shared existence in the contemporary world. I see photography not merely as a visual medium, but as a language of empathy and awareness. Through my lens, I strive to document moments that reveal both vulnerability and resilience, stories that question the realities of our time and invite the viewer to engage in dialogue about justice, compassion, and coexistence. For me, art is a form of responsibility. I believe that environmental destruction, human rights violations, and war have no place in the era we live in. My goal is to continue using photography as a bridge between people and as a voice for a more conscious and peaceful world
Farshid Ashkar
Born in Shiraz, Fars Province, I am a mechanical engineer whose passion for photography has evolved into a lifelong pursuit of visual storytelling. My artistic focus lies in social documentary and street photography—genres through which I seek to observe and interpret the human condition within its everyday context. I am particularly drawn to capturing authentic moments that reflect the complexity, resilience, and quiet poetry of ordinary life. For me, photography is both an act of witnessing and a form of empathy—an attempt to connect with the world and give voice to the stories that often remain unseen. As an active member of several art and photography associations, I have had the opportunity to present my work in various solo and group exhibitions, as well as national and international competitions. Each project deepens my belief in the power of photography to reveal truth, evoke emotion, and inspire reflection.
R. Nodeh
I was born in 1982 in Rudbar County, Gilan Province, where nature and simplicity have always been a part of daily life. These elements deeply influence my artistic vision and the way I perceive the world. For the past three years, I have dedicated myself to photography, focusing primarily on minimalism and nature — occasionally turning to portraiture. Through minimal photography, I seek to express the essence of the world around me with clarity and restraint. The simplicity within my compositions mirrors my emotional response to life: quiet, reflective, and sincere. Each image becomes a way of translating my inner connection with the environment into a visual language of calm and contemplation.
Nasim Nadem
With an eye for subtle beauty and a heart rooted in exploration, Nasim Nadem turns nature’s fleeting moments into timeless stories. Her work invites us to slow down, step closer, and see the poetry hidden in every shadow, every ray of light. For Nasim, photography has never been just a craft; it’s a calling. What began as a childhood fascination has evolved into a lifelong journey of study, travel, and deep observation, a journey that’s shaped her into not just a photographer, but a storyteller of the natural world. Whether she’s holding a professional camera or simply her phone, Nasim’s mission remains the same: to capture moments that matter. Her lens lingers on details most of us overlook, the quiet mysteries, the intricate patterns, the fleeting magic that nature offers freely to those willing to see. Every image she creates is more than a photograph; it’s a conversation with the earth itself. Through her work, Nasim reminds us that nature is far richer and more profound than what first meets the eye, an endless source of wonder for those who pause to truly look.

Samira Goudarzi
Photography has fascinated me since childhood, especially the magic of watching images appear on paper, a process that once seemed like alchemy. What began as a childhood curiosity gradually evolved into a lifelong passion and eventually a professional pursuit, leading me to establish a studio for children’s and sports photography. Yet, as I spent more time behind the camera, I discovered that what truly moved me was not the precision of studio lighting or controlled poses, but the raw and unfiltered moments of real life. I became deeply drawn to photographing people, especially children, in their natural environments, where honesty, spontaneity, and emotion reveal themselves effortlessly. Today, I dedicate my work to documenting life in rural areas and small towns, where culture, customs, and nature coexist in harmony. Through my photography, I seek to preserve these authentic stories and share the beauty of genuine human connection.
Mohammad Alizadegan
For me, photography is a quiet refuge in a noisy world, a way to step beyond the routines of daily life and enter a timeless space. My work, particularly in minimalist photography, aims to create simple, unadorned environments where the mind can freely explore meaning and reflection. Working primarily in black-and-white, I strive to uncover the hidden layers of the world around me. I am drawn to moments that are fleeting, ephemeral instants that dissolve with the passage of time. These images not only capture the transient beauty of life but also challenge my perception, emotions, and thoughts, inviting viewers to pause, reflect, and engage with the subtle complexities of existence.

Photography has been a part of my life since childhood, a way for me to observe and interpret the world beyond words. My journey began through self-teaching, experimentation, and a persistent curiosity about light, form, and simplicity. While I have worked across different photographic styles, my artistic identity has found its true expression in nature, macro, and minimal photography.
