ABOUT ME
MALKIJAH E RASHAD
​​
Malkijah E. Rashad is a multifaceted creative entrepreneur who bridges the gap between strategic business insight and evocative visual storytelling. After earning a degree in Economics, he began his career by helping launch and support franchisees at Liberty Tax Service, where he honed skills in training, operations, and client acquisition. He then went on to run a concession company overseeing vendor relationships, staffing, and event logistics before taking the reins of a regional mattress store, managing everything from inventory procurement to sales strategy.
In 2023, Malkijah turned his lifelong passion for photography into a professional career.
Specializing in:
• Headshots: Crafting authentic portraits that help professionals from actors to entrepreneurs put their best face forward.
• Sports: Freezing dynamic action and emotion, whether it’s the intensity of game day or the triumph of victory.
• Sportraits: A hybrid of sports and portraiture, these images capture athletes’ personalities and power in a single frame.
• Fashion: Collaborating with designers and stylists to create editorial-style shoots that showcase clothing, accessories, and attitude.
His diverse business background means every shoot is managed end-to-end: from strategic planning and mood-board development to on-location direction, post-production retouching, and final delivery. Clients appreciate not only the crisp, dynamic images he produces but also his clear communication, punctuality, and turnkey approach. When he’s not behind the lens, Malkijah mentors aspiring photographers, experiments with new lighting setups, and studies the latest trends in visual branding.
His mission is simple: "To elevate every subject be it a person, a team, or a garment through compelling imagery that tells a story and delivers real-world impact."
