Request QuoteZuhair A. Al-Traifi, based in Dammam, Saudi Arabia. Begun photographing in early 2010 and after a year I realized my passion lays on taking portrait from the streets. In the late of 2013 I begun a project about the Streets of Saudi Arabia in goal to photograph the lives on the streets and document the places the cities in the country and I'm still working on it. In beginning of 2015 I started learning more in Documentary photography.

In Jeddah AlBalad, West of Saudi Arabia there is a an old cafe which was running for decades, it used to serve all kind of shisha but the in the last 3 years they stopped from serving it and they only serve tea, or milk tea. It's not about the tea itself, it's about the place what people drives them to be here mostly are foreigns of course. Ibrahim works here for about 8 years now and he start working early morning by himself, he’s a 50 year old man from Taiz in Yemen which is a city in the southwestern Region almost between Sana’a & Aden. According to him this cafe opened more then 50 years ago, and there is only a small space for storage & making the tea plus another small space for the shisha (in the past) and all the tables are outside all time of the year. Ibrahim has a great popularity among the regular costumers who some consider him more then just a cafe man, in the few times I saw Ibrahim, he was always smiling, confident & loves his work. I hope to meet him again if I got back to Jeddah, he deserves that & more.
