About Photography Mentoring & Education
Why I Do This
I see too many photographers just clicking without a vibe. If your model looks awkward, it's not their fault. I help you move past boring shots and get to that "photos lene ki sensation" (the thrill of capturing the perfect shot).
My Approach
- I’m all about real over plastic. No fake, over-edited faces here.
- We start with a story, not just a pose.
- I show you everything - the chaos, the process, the final image.
- Action matters more than theory. We learn by doing, not just talking.
What You’ll Learn
- How to direct models for emotional portraits, even in crazy places like Mumbai markets.
- Using natural light and simple one-light setups for portraits with mood and drama.
- Tricks for night portraits and concerts, including my go-to camera settings.
- My full, realistic photo editing workflow in Photoshop - no plastic skin, just natural color grading and exposure.
Gear & Tricks
- I mostly shoot with a Sony A73, Tamron 28-75mm, and a couple of primes.
- I’ll show you simple in-camera hacks, like using a glass or flower for cool effects.
For me, photography is ishq hai (pure passion). I don’t just shoot people, I shoot hoomans. If you want to create images that feel real, not fake, let’s do this together.

My Story
Hey, I’m Aakash. I shoot hoomans, not mannequins. I hate those stiff, plastic photos – feels fake, na? I’m all about catching the real vibe, whether it’s outdoors with Bombay beach light or just chilling on the street. Sometimes I go dramatic in a dark room, single flash, movie-style. Lately, I’ve been showing folks how I work, helping other photographers skip the awkward posing and over-editing trap. It’s all about the mood, not just the click.
My Work
Fashion, Portraits & Events - I shoot fashion, model portfolios, editorial, cinematic portraits, pre-wedding, couple, and concerts.
Story Over Pose - We build a story together. I’ll guide you so you never feel stiff or awkward.
Natural Light & Cinematic Mood - I love natural light, but I also play with flash and single-light for cinematic portrait shoot.
Minimal Photo Editing - I edit in Photoshop, but only to enhance the vibe. No plastic skin, just real and raw.
