I shoot the rooms people actually go to

Short-form video for restaurants, hotels, events, and the brands that travel with them. Faceless, cinematic, and yours to post.

Meet the Founder

I'm Fahmiya, a 38 year old video creator in Washington, DC.

  • By day I work as a consultant for 12+ yrs

  • By night I spend my time building relationships & sharing stories

  • Designed and built DMVExplorere.com to find community and spotlight events & businesses

  • Zero to 134K views in 90 days, appealing to people who don’t follow me.


My why?

I don't make the landmark version of a place. I focus on highlighting how a place or a product makes someone feel. The coffee ceremony, the chef’s kitchen, the Tuesday night nobody posted about.

I shoot it all myself and stay behind the camera.

If you're a restaurant, a hotel, a brand, or a city wondering how to show what you've built without it looking like an ad, let’s collaborate!.

86% of my audience is 25 to 54. The largest group is 35 to 44. Two-thirds are women. These are people who book the table, the room, and the flight.
