Shahida Shah

""

Shahida is passionate about storytelling. She sheds light on important issues like identity, injustice, and more recently, the challenges of loss from a daughter's perspective. She documented her dad’s dementia journey from 2021 until he died in 2023 and soon realized that these photographs were a way of preserving memories.

Inspired by contemporary documentary photography, Shahida combines film and digital photography using natural lighting. To capture the perfect shot, she travels within the UK and abroad, patiently waiting for the ideal moment. Her photographs are connected to important issues and could educate viewers about how chronic conditions affect families.
