Support Independent Photography from Iran

Sanctions, a battered economy, and the ongoing risk of escalation, including the threat of a potential U.S. invasion, make equipment, travel, and publishing from Iran unsustainable. Major fundraising platforms have banned iranians, so this page is a direct way to support the work.

What your support funds

I’m an independent photographer working inside Iran. With sanctions, limited payment rails, and a fragile economy, basic production costs (gear, repairs, storage, transport) can be punishing. Add the uncertainty of regional escalation, including the threat of a potential U.S. invasion—and even simple planning becomes unpredictable. Your support keeps the work alive and moving.

  • Equipment: camera/lens repairs, storage, backups, essentials to keep shooting.
  • Essentials: rent, food, transport, internet—so I can stay consistent and publish.
  • Travel: trips inside Iran to document more regions and stories.
  • Support artists: when possible, helping other artists with urgent needs or small equipment.

I’ll post updates through my Instagram. If you can’t donate, sharing the page helps more than you think.
