About
Mohammad Karamali is a Toronto-based photographer, product manager, and builder operating at the intersection of visual journalism and software engineering. With deep roots in sports photojournalism and editorial coverage, Mohammad’s perspective behind the lens has always been defined by timing, technical discipline, and visual impact. But his drive to build didn’t stop at the frame. Leveraging his engineering background, he stepped into product management and tech entrepreneurship—first spearheading Archubi, and later engineering the infrastructure of OPA Images from the ground up. What began as an editorial agency quickly evolved into a multifaceted ecosystem of web platforms—expanding into OPA News, OPA Specs, OPA Vault, and OPA Release. Today, all of these ventures converge under Velongix, a parent venture studio founded and led by Mohammad, housing a growing portfolio of custom web platforms, automated media tools, and software solutions. Whether documenting live action pitchside, architecting full-stack digital products, or scaling web applications, Mohammad operates with a rare dual fluency: the creative instincts of a visual storyteller and the systematic execution of a product manager. Based in Toronto. Available worldwide for editorial assignments, media production, and digital product consulting.
