ASM Rahat Khan started his journey in the arena of photography back in his graduation days. While he was learning the science of the language English (Linguistics) at the University of Dhaka, his mind was exploring his surroundings and trying to capture his vision through his lenses. To entwine his passion and profession together, he started working as a part-time exhibition coordinator at Drik Ga
llery. Thus, his hands grew stronger while capturing life through his lenses, and his photographic sense was also developed along with his academics. On that time he finished his basic course of photography from ‘Pathshala South Asian Media Institute’. After getting over with his graduation, Rahat Khan stepped into the competitive commercial world of marketing with is fashion house ‘Bangla Boshon’ which was in business till 2018. With his business experience building up along the last eight years, he went a step further and started to explore different cultures and observe different lifestyles. This, he thought, would give his photos a new touch of variation and his work would rejoice on the carnival of different vivid cultures. After exploring many horizons and living in the western hemisphere of the United States for few years, he finally came back to his home ground as this part of the world inspired him the most. Along with his voyage through the camera lenses, Rahat Khan, being an explorer, has also worked with numerous local entrepreneurs, empowering their start-ups and boosting their glory with e-commerce is the last four years. He has works to help entrepreneurs and new investors by advising them on business developmental ideas and also works as a brand-development expert in times. However, with all this going on in his professional career, Rahat Khan has always found time for photography. His enthusiasm and zeal for photography were kept alive with his involvement in Bangladesh’s one of the largest online photography groups ‘Grasshoppers’. Playing the role of an admin there, he wishes to keep igniting the flame of photography in his heart and hopes to do more as a photographer. Please visit the website:
