Scotland’s Pakistan Fashion Week was a vibrant, flamboyant and visually exciting event to photograph.  Over 30 Pakistan designers showcased in the event which was officially opened by Scotland’s First Minister, Nicola Sturgeon.

I was asked by the event organisers to document the event back stage and on the catwalk.  It was a stunning event to photograph with its striking designs, colours and patterns.

I’m also delighted that my photographs may help Mr Syed Qazzafi’s project, which seeks to bring recognition to women designers, who have been largely overlooked by the fashion industry.  With this in mind, I was glad to see, that I was not the only camera capturing the event.
