Introduction Ever since I was a teenager, I was always fascinated with the fashion world. Even when I couldn’t afford it, I followed it, and admired those who walked runways showing it. It wasn’t until I was older when I learned that fashion is not dependent on wealth. Yes, the choices are limitless when you have a lot of money, but fashion is an attitude. It’s what you dare putting on to make your identity – whether it may be a Holt Renfrew coat or an Army Surplus jacket, it’s still your style and how you work it will define you. It took me a long time to realize that. It took even longer for me to pick up an SLR camera to shoot street style. Photography has been a hobby of mine for 4 years now. I say hobby because banking is my day job. Photography gives me an opportunity to express my creative ideas. I’m not just interested in one concept of photography. I get bored easily. I've shot glamour to editorial and I’m always experimenting. -- Nigel Hamid (Editor & photographer of TorontoVerve)
