About
Nouf Yarub
Portrait photographer · filmmaker · Jeddah
I’m a portrait photographer and visual storyteller based in Jeddah. I studied and worked as a graphic designer before moving to photography and film.
I photograph people in the places they work, play and think, and I direct short films and music videos. Commissions span portraits, events, food and moving image.
