Some say that if you want to get to know someone, then look at their pictures. Now, if you’ve followed me around on social media, you will find that I am usually suited and booted. That’s the polished and professional Abul Hussain.
I am sharing this gallery here to give my clients and prospective clients a look behind the curtain. I am human too and this page is here to prove it 🙂
I plan to keep on adding images here and hopefully you’ll see some more snaps, as I get a chance to share from my globetrotting.
