Kimia Rahgozar is an electronic engineer by training, but it is photography that inspires her. She is born in Iran in 1967, and she has experienced her fair share of change within her country, but remains keen defender of its culture, history and customs. As with all true photographers, she develops and prints all her own images adjusting each frame to convey something that goes beyond the mere recording of a scene. She has published works in Art magazines. Commercial Brochure.
