Behind the Lens: How I Create My Work

A before-and-after of a street photo from Hong Kong. You can see how I use Lightroom to enhance the mood, bring out details from the shadows, and guide the viewer's eye to the story of the elderly couple.

This split view shows the transformation of a chaotic Chandni Chowk scene. My 'Amber' preset adds warmth and a cinematic feel, turning a simple snapshot into a moody, atmospheric image.

A before-and-after of a portrait taken in Janpath. My editing process involves balancing the light, enhancing the colors, and using Photoshop to remove distractions, ensuring the focus remains entirely on the subject.

Here's a look at how I transformed a simple night shot of a corner store. By adjusting the colors and light in Lightroom, I was able to create a much more dramatic and moody scene that tells a story.

This is how I see the world. On the left is the ordinary scene I saw, and on the right is the final photograph I created by focusing on the light filtering through the leaves. It's all about finding the beauty in the details.

Another "what I see vs. what I take" example. I saw a cat resting on a wall and chose to get close, focusing on its expressive face and the beautiful green background to create an intimate portrait.

A look behind the scenes of my early self-portrait series. This image breaks down the setup, showing how I used simple things like natural light and wrapping paper to create artistic effects.

Here you can see how I used sunlight from my balcony door as a key light and a piece of gift wrapping paper to create colorful reflections for my self-portraits. You don't always need fancy equipment to be creative.

For this shot, I used a crystal from a broken trophy to create these galaxy-like reflections on my face. The light source was simply sunlight bouncing off a pink wrapping paper.
