Hi, I’m Althaf AR — an architectural photographer and filmmaker based in Kerala, India. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Architecture, graduating in August 2019. My professional journey began under the mentorship of Ar. Prasanth Mohan of Running Studios, an architect-turned-filmmaker whose approach left a lasting impression on me. Later, I had the opportunity to work closely with Ar. Syam Sreesylam, a distinguished architectural photographer and filmmaker.

These experiences helped refine my ability not just to capture architecture, but to communicate its story and design language meaningfully to an audience. I see each project as an opportunity to explore the intersection of design and lived experience.

​

Today, as Partner and Creative Director at Studio IKSHA, I continue to explore architecture through visual narratives that connect space, story, and emotion.

Hi! I’m a visual consultant, fashion photographer, and photo editor based in Kerala, India. I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Architecture from KMEA College of Architecture in August 2019. I started my career as an Associate Director under Ar. Prasanth Mohan, an architect who transitioned into photography and filmmaking, and I later had the chance to work as a documentary photographer with Mamangam, an Indian contemporary dance company founded by Rima Kallingal. Currently, I work as a visual consultant and photographer for brands including House of Urmi, Mrunala by Remadevi, Jasmine by Seba and Edimannickal Jewellery. Through each project, I strive to bring spaces and stories to life, capturing their unique beauty and essence. I look forward to exploring new creative opportunities and pushing the boundaries of photography and visual storytelling.
