RUMIYYA ALI
​​
I was born in Azerbaijan, but my heart belongs to the road. Now living in the Czech Republic, I travel the world with my camera — capturing moments that speak to me, wherever I find them. Photography has been my way of seeing for over 10 years. I’m drawn to beauty in all its raw and unexpected forms — the way light hits a wall in the late afternoon, the quiet story in a stranger’s expression, or the geometry of a city caught between shadow and sun. Most of my work is instinctive: I photograph what I love, what stops me, what makes me feel something.
​
Though my main passion lies in street and travel photography, I also occasionally work behind the scenes with actors and film crews. These moments, too, are full of emotion and energy — just told in a different language. My images live in exhibitions, in private collections, and sometimes in the hands of those who see the world a little like I do. I sell photographs that carry a feeling, a memory, or simply a piece of stillness in a moving world.
​
This is more than just photography. It’s a way of listening with your eyes.
