What Colleagues Say

Abid is a talented photojournalist with a great eye for a news photo and the ability to create a visual narrative. He would regularly submit work that dug beneath and helped explain the stories that dominated the headlines.

He produced great and competitive imagery even while his home was under attack. His resilience, optimism, and dedication are an inspiration to us all. He covered dangerous situations pretty much by himself.
