After creating a coming-of-age drama (𝘈𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘺𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴, 2025), I wanted to expand my filmmaking skills. Living in the Bay, it seems impossible to escape the push of seemingly sentient AI.

This digital self-portrait explores the contrast between how I define myself and how others label me.

This was part of my senior portrait series.

To me, childhood looks like raspberries.

This photo depicts a newspaper headlined, "The World Is Ending."

I came upon this doorway during a visit to the Don Edwards salt ponds with my family.

I like to experiment with manipulating space and time, to explore the liminal and jumbled moments that don't quite fit into our universe — one that forces us to constantly move forward.

For this, I had an idea of taking a photo of a clock and turning it more into dream-like where I had edited the numbers on the clock to look a bit blurry/unrecognizable.

I love going out photographing with friends, and this is one of the images that came out of one of our adventures.

This photo I captured freezes a moment in time, as fog rolls across the hills on Bollinas Ridge in Marin County.

My photograph is inspirerd by Wong Kar Wai, a movie director from Hong Kong, known for his saturated visuals, dim lighting, and emotional cinematography.

Shot at dawn in Lone Pine, CA, viewing Mt. Whitney from Alabama Hills.

This is a digitally manipulated photo, where I blend two photos I took about a month apart from my school, layered and mirrored to create a double-exposure landscape.

I’ve always loved photographing portraits and going for a more dreamy, dramatic, artistic look in my photography.

I'm Shaikhah, and this is the story behind my portrait.

My photograph is an exploration of femininity as a teenager.

Hidden among tidepool eelgrass, the Fluffy Sculpin (Oligocottus snyderi) reveals itself only to those patient enough to look closely.

For this artwork, I photographed the Royal Opera House in Oman because I thought the building looked really unique and beautiful.

I drove down to Pacifica at 12:30 am driving in and out of neighborhoods looking for a cool subject to shoot.

My work focused on capturing the emotion and energy of live music.
