Reem Al Faisal from Saudi Arabia is a photographer and journalist. She is one of the few women who has covered the Hajj extensively. In her three year documentation of the pilgrims in Mecca, we can discern her conviction that prompted her to photograph this ritual: different people from all over the world convening on the basis of their shared faith and spirituality.
