My place of work is the top attraction in Doha according to Tripadvisor. It is also almost always on the itinerary of VIPs visiting Qatar.

In early May as I was waiting to get in the lift from our offices, Meryl Streep appeared as the doors opened.

In the last few of months, Boris Johnson, Lionel Messi, Hamid Karsai, and Charles & Camilla have visited, and yesterday it was the turn of the French president, François Hollande. I don’t normally get to photograph these people, but I was able to grab a quick snap as he was leaving the building.
