In this new series “Spotlight”, we be will shedding light on some of the unsung heroes from the culture. At the very heart of the UK creative scene there are many multi-talented and strong-willed individuals executing ideas everyday and spearheading the movement. These super heroes stem from all walks of life and occupy different creative roles but all them deserve to be honoured and celebrated.

Meet Zek.Snaps

A young and ambitious photographer from London who turned his back on the education system at GCSE level to peruse his dream. Not many photographers get about the city as much as Zekaria does and most do not get about spreading as much joy and positive energy as him. 2016 has been an epic year for Zek so far which of course includes the achievement of his first magazine cover shoot for our latest issue of GUAPMAG featuring J Hus. His work is breath-taking so thank god it speaks for itself.

Check out some of his work below:
