Frequently asked questions




Who is eligible to attend this course?


Participants between the ages of 8 and 85 have learnt photography from me. You can be living anywhere in the world, in any timezone, and still learn photography from me.


 


Who is it for?


You could be a school or college student who wants to learn photography as a hobby or pursue it as your career, or a working professional who wants to explore your artistic creativity, or a parent who wants to click pictures of your kids growing up, or someone looking to pursue a hobby after retirement.


 


Which camera must I have?


You can have a mirrorless, DSLR, bridge camera or advanced compact camera of any manufacturer. The main requirement is that your camera must have the manual mode.




My photography journey


Uncle Philip gifted me a Canon AE-1P camera on my birthday.


I immediately loaded the camera and started clicking anything and everything in sight. But when the photos were developed they were either too bright or too dark or out of focus.


That’s when I realised that I needed to take a course in photography to learn the basic skills of taking good pictures.


I enrolled for a photography class where we didn’t have any practical sessions until the 7th class. And there too all we did was “point and shoot”. On the 8th session, we were given a demo on how to develop our film and print our photos. And that was it!


I had invested time, money and energy and I had learnt almost nothing on how to click good pictures.


So I decided to join a year-long one on one class with a renowned photographer.


During this course, I started clicking good professional pictures, getting them published in various magazines... and getting paid for it!


I then decided to share my new knowledge with budding photo enthusiasts so that they too did not have to go through a similar traumatic experience.


So in 2007, I started teaching photography workshops at various venues in Mumbai. Since then I have had the opportunity to teach photography to over 6,000 individuals between the ages of 8 and 85.


I was the visiting faculty for photography at SNDT Women’s University in Mumbai, where I taught “Lighting and digital photography” to first and second year BSc. Home Science students for three years.


I have facilitated photography workshops and seminars at schools and colleges such as American School of Bombay, VIBGYOR (Mumbai and Pune), Witty International School, Bishop's School Pune, IIT of Bombay and Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies, S.M. Shetty College and Anna Leela College in Mumbai, and for organisations such as ICICI Foundation for Inclusive Growth, Kotak Mahindra Bank, NABARD, iVolunteer and PUKAR.
