About Muji
Mujahid Ur Rehman, known as Muji, is a professional who weaves storytelling through his roles as a photographer, filmmaker, and writer. Based in Cape Town, South Africa, he brings life to his narratives through short films on YouTube and an engaging newsletter covering life, people, travel, nature, and motivation.
His passion for photography has sprung from years of travel, hiking, and exploring. Before buying his first camera in 2006, he collected photos digitally and stuck prints on his walls as a student, escaping into another world through them. Landscape photography resulted from his innate love of nature and photography. His journey behind the lens led him to express himself through short films on photography, art, and travel and showcasing people’s lives.
While his videos often depict the bustle of city life, Muji’s true joy lies in the vibrance of nature with its changing palette of colours. He draws his truest inspiration outside and alone in nature, from the silent thrumming of the Namib desert to the deep crashing of the Atlantic coasts near home. Muji has felt the need to share his knowledge and experience with others over time and enjoys the online platform. He firmly believes in the power of writing, film, and photography as tools for communication and motivation in this age.
He aspires to travel the world and chronicle his adventures through his work, sharing his perspective with others.
