Behind the Camera Lens
I'm Samer Saad, the photographer behind BAYTALSUWAR. My approach to photography goes beyond simply capturing moments—it's about preserving the beauty and emotions of the people and places in front of my lens. For me, the true magic of photography lies in its ability to tell a story and evoke deep feelings, which is what inspires me to share this art form with others.
As a first-generation American whose parents immigrated from Beirut, Lebanon to Metro Detroit, I’ve inherited a drive and ambition that knows no bounds. That drive brought me to Las Vegas, a city of endless creativity and opportunity. My passion is helping others capture life’s precious moments and tell their unique stories through images that resonate and inspire. It’s about framing perspectives and sharing them with the world in a meaningful way.
I’m fortunate to have had the opportunity to do just that being Co-Founder of Astira Studios LLC. I've collaborated with incredible creative professionals, brands, and companies across diverse industries. Working with others in this vibrant community has allowed me to bring their visions to life while continuing to explore new creative horizons. Whether it’s a personal milestone, a brand’s unique identity, or a bold artistic concept, I strive to produce images that not only meet expectations but elevate them. The world is a canvas, and I’m here to help you tell your story.
So, you might be wondering—what does BAYTALSUWAR even mean? Its origin is Arabic, and it’s actually two words combined into one. Bayt (بيت) means “house,” and Al-Suwar (الصور) means “pictures.” Together, بيت الصور translates literally to “House of Pictures.”
Now that you know a little more about me, I’d be honored to have the opportunity to capture your life’s precious moments. Let’s build your own house of pictures, one story at a time.
But wait, there's more...
In addition to photography and being an artist I'm also a practicing engineer. This brings a unique blend of creativity and technical expertise to everything I do. My passion for photography allows me to capture moments that tell compelling stories and express my creativity, while my work in cybersecurity reflects my dedication to protecting our digital world. These two disciplines may seem worlds apart, but they share a common goal: empowering and supporting others in navigating complex landscapes, whether visual or digital.
My innate drive to help others has also led me to start a tech blog, where I hope to educate readers about digital rights, privacy, cybersecurity, and technology in general. Through my platform, I aim to share insights, stay updated on the latest news and emerging trends, provide valuable guidance for securing our digital lives, and ultimately build a supportive community. Whether through my lens, my keyboard, or my blog, my mission is to inspire, protect, and support those navigating an increasingly interconnected and complex world.
