Ishq Ki ibtida

Lahore University of Management Sciences is one of Pakistan and South Asia’s most prestigious educational institutions. One of the biggest societies at LUMS, PhotoLUMS has been shaped by many luminites into the society that it has grown to now.

With the recent inauguration of a social responsibility wing, it is fair to say that PhotoLUMS caters to a wide range of individuals. From the subtle art of photography to the use of this very art to change  lives, PhotoLUMS has unequivocally come a long way. Besides hosting innumerable events including the annual Mehfil-e-Tasaweer and the LUMS Annual Photography Summit, PhotoLUMS has grown to help LUMinites cherish every day, every instance spent within the red-brick walled proximity of LUMS.

From capturing glimpses of happiness and deliriousness at various events held at LUMS, external or internal, to preserving contemporary works of art put forth by LUMinites in the fields of theatre, art, intellectual discourse, community service and music, PhotoLUMS has aimed at connecting people for over two decades. Succinctly, PhotoLUMS is a society by the people and for the people, and runs much like a democratic institution, with a well-laid out selection criteria including interviews surgaplay and a thorough screening process. Aimed at preserving every smile, every tear shed, and every happening at LUMS, for the sake of promoting the art of photography and reaching unreachable limits, PhotoLUMS has been a core society at LUMS for a long while. The recent collaboration with a local NGO Rizq and various initiatives including Ramadan drives and wedding shoots, PhotoLUMS has spread its roots beyond the gates of LUMS, to let the art of photography flourish, help and preserve.
