Barbara Touati-Evans

I am a photographer passionate about social documentary, environmental portraiture, and visual sociology. I try to place ethics at the core of my practice, often working in socially engaged ways and via partner negotiation and collaboration. Previously I was a firefighter for 24 years, and then transitioned to event production, working globally with renowned clients like Duke Dumont, Wu-Tang Clan, Pusha T and many others. After leaving the touring life, I earned a BA and MFA in photography (with distinction) at the University for the Creative Arts and now here I am doing what I love.

I’m Hannah, a graphic designer with over 20 years’ experience in branding, print and digital design. I help businesses communicate clearly and confidently through thoughtful, well-crafted design. As a creative partner, I take the time to understand your business, goals and audience, and by working closely with clients and their teams, I create design solutions that are considered, effective and visually appealing. My work covers everything from branding and design for print to websites, including e-commerce. I manage projects from concept to delivery, coordinating suppliers and specialists as needed, and I take pride in being friendly, reliable and responsive while delivering work that adds clarity and confidence to your brand.

I am a writer and a visual artist. I am passionate about intersectional inclusion and my practice supports people to express their identities and experiences through creative writing and visual art. I believe that story-telling through words and images is a powerful tool for building and strengthening communities. My skills include workshop facilitation, and event and project planning and management. I focus on creating inclusive communities, whether for a one off workshop or a long term plan. If you want to ignite imaginations and inspire empathy, I am ready to work with you. I am also a post graduate researcher in Creative Writing at the University of Portsmouth.
