the man behind the lens

Lifestyle. Landscapes. Equine. Nature. Birds. Wildlife.

 

Mohammid Walbrook is an internationally-published Caribbean lifestyle photographer and visionary with 20+ years behind the lens. Born and raised on the tiny Caribbean island of Barbuda, Mohammid always had vast artistic aspirations. He first discovered his gift as a child when his grandmother would bring him cameras from England during her yearly visits. He quickly became the lensman for family functions and eventually lent his craft to his community, capturing significant events and the unique culture in his village. Mohammid's artistic eye and sharp character ultimately landed him a full scholarship to the School of Visual Arts in New York City where he attained a BFA in Photography and Video.

Following the devastating 2017 Category 5+++ Hurricane Irma, Mohammid Walbrook became a household name across the Caribbean and throughout the world, his works widely circulating with depictions of the impact and aftermath of the catastrophic storm. Because of Mohammid's bravery, the world came to know of Barbuda, its beauty, and its rich history juxtaposed with a threatened way of life at the hands of corruption and disaster capitalism.

Mohammid's work has been featured in popular publications, including Harper's Bazaar, The New York Times, Forbes, and Surfer Magazine. His remarkable contributions to the Caribbean art arena have earned him several placements and accolades, including, most notably, distinction as a featured artist at the 2018 Venice La Biennale National Pavilion for Antigua & Barbuda in Venice, Italy.

Mohammid's portfolio highlights island lifestyle, scenic landscapes, wildlife, and horse racing on his picturesque isle. His photographs boast themes of black & white and vivid colour, his versatility unparalleled in the Caribbean photography arena.

While hiking, biking, and guiding Barbuda's nature tours, Mohammid always finds beauty in his surroundings to capture. His raw, unique style and visually dynamic works draw the delight of international audiences and art collectors everywhere.
