Studio F64

About me While taking up a commerce degree during my youth days, I knew it for a fact that I was not meant for this formal commercial world. Life had to have something better in store for me. It was not until one click that I pressed on my friend’s manual camera, that I realized that it was this fascinating world of photography, that was eagerly waiting for me. Having recognized my inner strength then, there was no looking back. I shifted from commerce to photography, against the wishes of many people, who were still under the myth that photography is a hobby and not a means for daily bread. With my family’s support and faith in myself, I started exploring the reel life. My work has won me accolades like the prestigious Luxoculus Performing awards in 2009 from Shari Academy for professional photography and digital imaging. I got one more feather in my cap when my work got selected for display at the famous Tao Art Gallery, Mumbai.
