About Wildlife Photography Tours & Workshops
What Drives Me
I’m obsessed with the wild. Out there, you get what nature wants to show you, not what you demand. Sometimes you wait years for one shot, and then—ho gaya apna kaam (my work is done). That’s the high I chase and what I want you to feel.
My Tours: Real Wildlife, Real Stories
I take small groups deep into India’s best jungles for wildlife photography field workshops. You’ll learn to tell the story of the jungle—tracking animals, understanding their families, and seeing how survival plays out every day. We don’t rush; we watch, we learn, we shoot.
Big Cats Are My Thing
- My tours are all about big cat photography in India.
- In Ranthambore and Corbett, we track iconic tigers—like Noor and the legends of Dhikala.
- Kabini is for leopards and maybe, if luck’s with us, Saaya, the black panther.
- For hardcore folks, I run snow leopard expeditions in Spiti. It’s tough, freezing, sometimes -20°C, but spotting the ghost of the mountains is worth it.
What You Learn, Right There
- Hands-on: I show you how to handle your gear, nail exposure, and use lenses like my favorite 400mm.
- We go beyond portraits—think wildscapes, silhouettes, and those crazy low angles.
- You’ll pick up ethical wildlife photography tips, fieldcraft, and the patience it takes to read the jungle.
No Filters, No Drama
This is raw nature. Sometimes you’ll see things that are tough—matlab, koi animal aapke saamne live mar raha hai (an animal is dying right in front of you). That’s how it is. Respect comes first.
Where We Go
We explore Ranthambore, Corbett, Kabini, Spiti, Kanha, and Bandhavgarh—the real heart of India’s wild side.

My Story
Hi, I'm Amit. Nature calls the shots, not me. Ranthambore, Corbett – feels like home now. Spiti at -20°C, just for a glimpse of a snow leopard. Once, a tiger roared at my lens, camera slipped – unforgettable. It's not just about the photo, it's that wild connection. When I get that dream shot, I just say, ‘Ho gaya apna kaam.’ Big awards, sure, but my guides – Rajkumar, Ravi – they’re the real legends.
My Work
Wildlife & Nature Photography - I capture animals in their world, from tiger portrait photography to elephants and leopards, telling their raw stories.
Real Jungle Stories - No sugarcoating. The jungle’s wild, sometimes brutal. My photos show survival, the truth of the wild.
Patience in Nature Photography - Great shots need time. I wait for perfect moments – not for those wanting quick snaps.
Animal Family Stories - I know their family, names, stories. You’ll get photos and the real story behind each frame.
