Born and bred in London, Sohail Anjum has quickly risen to become one of the leading South Asian photographers in the UK. Having taken photographs of all the major South Asian celebrities his highly creative work oozes style and lots of class. Currently working as freelance photographer for various publications after a five year stint as the Picture Editor of UK's leading South Asian newspaper, Eastern Eye.

The list of superstars and cutting edge newcomers that he has captured with his camera include Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai. In short if they are famous then they have crossed his path. Perhaps the biggest talent that he has is the ease with which he is able to make the transition from various areas that include news features, fashion, portfolios, celebrity photo shoots and live events. Sohail prefers to shoot on location and in black & white.
Not afraid to experiment he is constantly pushing creative barriers with some of the most glorious triumphs coming from following his instincts and venturing into the unknown. Always learning he greatly admires the works of others. Some of the eclectic publications his works have appeared in includes, Eastern Eye, India Today, Verve Magazine (India), Asiana, Asiana Wedding, Libas International, Mail on Sunday, News of the World, The Evening Standard, Ahlan Masala (Dubai), Marwar (India).
