About
Hi, I am Yosef!
I’m Yosef Futsum and I am a freelance product photographer and filmmaker in al ain, UAE. It’s been more than 3 years since I started my first research and growth in the area of product photography and my passion and enthusiasm for it only kept on growing and expanding.
My photography and filmmaking passion goes all the way since childhood. My parents had a couple of film cameras laying around in the house back in Eritrea, my home country and I always found myself searching for ways to be creative. I used to photograph everything I had inside my home starting from food and drinks. That didn’t stop there, I and my younger brother used to film short films and parodies of movies that we loved. I wish I had the archives to display in this portfolio. Anyways, years passed and I was blessed to get a scholarship to UAE and my passion for filmmaking and product photography exploded to the roof because of the unlimited resources from the internet, which I didn’t have access to. Ever since I kept on learning and growing in my photography which turned into my passion.

However, photography is more than just taking a picture. It is a process that involves creativity, technical skills, and a keen eye for composition. A good photographer must understand light and color, as well as the elements of design, to create visually stunning images. Additionally, a photographer must have a deep understanding of their subject, whether it is a person, a place, or an object. By capturing the essence of their subject, they can tell a story and evoke emotions in the viewer.
In conclusion, photography is an incredibly important art form that has the power to capture memories, tell stories, and evoke emotions. Its importance has only increased with the advancements in technology, making it more accessible to people from all walks of life.
