Rameen Fatima, Founder at Rameen Studios, gives an insightful interview on her journey on becoming a professional photographer.
1. Tell us about yourself?
I am Rameen, an independent woman utilizing my passion and skills to be an entrepreneur.
2. How did you become a photographer?
I had my interest in photography from a very young age. I still remember the first camera my uncle (mother’s brother) bought me as a gift when I was in school and I ended up capturing a lot of photos with a cropped forehead and other noticeable mistakes especially with a camera film roll having a limited capacity but it was fun.
3. From being a Chartered Accountant to pursuing a creative field, how did this transition take place?
It was not like someone forced me to study accountancy it was something I chose for myself after completing I.com. CA was challenging so I took that challenge instead for opting for BBA. Later on, I realized I was not happy and this is not what I was made for. I have been a creative and an imaginative person since by birth so I went with my nature.

6. Tell us about your expertise in video production and how did it all start?
I started by completing a few projects. I am passionate to learn new skills, so I learned all the skills involved in video production.
