Born in Tehran, Iran, Salar Motahari's photographic career started at an age of seven, encouraged by his father with a Canon FtB Single Lens Reflex camera. At the age of 19 he purchased his first DSLR, and the rest is history. Salar currently shoots with a Canon 20D.

   Specializing in emotive photography, Salar photographs subjects in a means of unveiling a unique intrinsic element. In a belief that individuality exists in every form, Salar attempts to visualize that element and capture it on film, hence Dynamic Perceptions Photography.

   Salar is currently working towards his graduate degree in Human Security and Peacebuilding at Royal Roads University in Victoria, BC. Upon graduation, Salar will pursue a PhD in Middle Eastern Civil Society, and consequently work towards the development of human security in conflict zones. Photography is the persistent heartbeat in which critical thinking and unique perspectives are spawn.

   Based in Vancouver, BC, Canada, Salar also shoots in Victoria, BC, and London, UK.
