02About

Behindthe camera

I'm Vida Akbari, a photographer, videographer and AI artist based in Dubai.

I shoot beauty, fashion and product work for brands and creators across the UAE, built on warm light, patient direction and frames that hold attention. Alongside the camera I work with generative tools, blending photography and AI to build campaign imagery that isn't possible with either alone.

I'm the founder of Talentap Media, where I handle everything from concept and shoot through to catalog delivery and ongoing portfolio management.

Believe in yourself and the world will believe in you too.
