JEDDAH: The Kingdom’s National Center for the Non-Profit Sector announced the establishment of the Saudi Photographers’ Society, which, through different branches across the country, will support and develop talents in the sector. The society’s board of directors was formed under the chairmanship of Yasser Al-Turki, a Saudi photographer specializing in architectural photography with 13 years of experience.  Yasser Al-Turki, chairman of the Saudi photographers’ Society.

The news was welcomed by many Saudi photographers, including Naif Alhilfi, who commented: “Congratulations to all of us on this beautiful initiative. We place our trust in you, Yasser.” The society’s board of directors also includes Mubarak Al-Shardan as vice president, Majed Abdulghani as financial supervisor, Amal bin Fardan and Omar Abdulaziz. Cultivating the art of photography in the country will boost tourism and enable the Kingdom’s professional and creative photographers — many of whom have won awards in the field — to highlight Saudi Arabia’s rich heritage, antiquities and diverse natural wonders.
