Karam Al-Masri
Born in Aleppo, Syria, in 1991, he pursued a degree in law at the University of Aleppo. From an early age, his passion for photography was evident as he frequently captured moments with his friends during elementary school. When protests erupted in Syria in 2011, he felt compelled to document the unfolding events. By 2013, he began working as a freelance photographer, collaborating with international press agencies. His strong ethics, sharp news judgment, and unwavering commitment swiftly propelled him from a talented citizen journalist to a trusted professional and award-winning photojournalist.
