One of Pakistan’s most famous photographers, Tapu Javeri is a man who’s seen in front of the camera just as much as he stays behind it, though he says he prefers to stay out of the picture most of the times. That said, he is a red carpet darling and anyone
following him on Instagram will vouch for the consistency of his holiday albums; they can get very creative! These days Tapu is onour TV screens, thanks to Miss Veet Pakistan where the acephotographer is on the panel of judges.
