Judah Jebadas Michael.

Photographer. Biblical scholar. Writer.
Originally from India. Based in Toronto since 2017. Canadian citizen.

Faith integrates everything. The disciplines look separate. The curiosity driving them is the same.

Chennai to Toronto. One Through-Line.

I grew up in the Chennai area, studied physics, then completed an MBA in marketing. A decade in corporate India: territory sales, area management, market development. The work was good. It didn't feel like the full picture.

I left India, arrived in Toronto, and became a Canadian citizen. In 2026, an MTS from Tyndale University - New Testament, Biblical Greek, Hebrew.

Somewhere in between: a camera, a growing photo archive spanning India and Canada, and writing that wouldn't stop accumulating. Event photography around Toronto and the GTA. Academic editing and theological writing alongside it.

Photography taught me to pay attention, genuinely pay attention, to the moment in front of me. Seminary taught me that paying attention is a theological act - that how you see shapes what you believe.

I haven't resolved the disciplines into one job title. The thread connecting them is enough.
