How do you become an influencer and start a 6-figure business after hitting rock bottom and having no money in the bank?
Despite having no proper training or lessons in photography, Walid Azami did not stop working hard and learning the basics of photography.
His intuition had him pick up this camera to take to a video shoot.
This led him to be asked to be the personal photographer for Usher, which then had him become a social media influencer while running a 6-figure business, working with famous music artists such as Kanye West, Jennifer Lopez, and Mariah Carey.
