Her practice focuses largely on creating narratives through her photography. She has created several series of portraits and landscapes, particularly in Africa, the Middle East and Asia. Engaged in humanitarian issues, she released two series of photographs and films about refugees in Lebanon entitled It Could Be You. In 2002, she began the Beyrouth | Beirut series an homage to the urban environment, complex demographics, and nostalgic architecture of Lebanon's capital. Beyrouth | Beirut was originally intended as a traveling exhibition. Its first destination was Beit Beirut in 2019, a historic house museum built in 1924 located on the historic Green Line (Lebanon) which separated East and West Beirut during the Lebanese Civil War. The exhibition was later staged at the Jordan National Gallery of Fine Arts in Amman.

Fadia Ahmad's photography is not about holding a camera, pointing it in the right direction, and snapping a picture. It is about capturing a moment that has meaning, significance, parallelism between what is seen, and a concept that is deeper than what the eye captures.
