About Wildlife Photography Tours & Safaris
My Approach
I don’t just click and move on. For me, every shot is about capturing a story. I’ll help you see the jungle like a painter—finding perspective, waiting for the right light, and using the landscape to make your image hit different.
Where We Shoot
My wild office covers India’s dense forests and Africa’s open savannas. I know these places, the rhythms of the animals, and those legendary characters—like Poojari, if you know, you know. This isn’t a scripted experience; the best moments are totally unpredictable.
What to Expect
- Chasing big cats, especially tigers and lions, but also soaking up the golden hour, misty mornings, and moody skies
- Guided wildlife photography expeditions in hotspots like Bandhavgarh, Ranthambhore, Tadoba, Masai Mara, and Amboseli
- Tips on shooting silhouettes, using fog, and getting creative with light—even if your gear isn’t fancy
How We Roll
- Join a small group for collaborative fun, or go one-on-one for a custom experience
- Options for full-day safaris in places like Tadoba—more time, less crowd, better shots
- I’m there in the jeep, sharing camera settings and real nature storytelling tricks, but pushing you to find your own vision
Who’s It For
Anyone hungry to learn, whether you’re new with a phone or carrying pro gear. You’ll leave with skills to frame your own stories, not just take photos.

My Story
So, my office? It’s not a cubicle – it’s under Sal trees, with bamboo all around and sandstone for chairs. Mumbai is home, but my soul’s out chasing wild light. Sometimes I’m soaked, sometimes sweating, sometimes lost in mist – always with my camera and the wild ones. My photos, they’re not just pictures. They’re chats with the jungle. No good or bad, only what hits you. If you want to track silence and chase the untamed, come along.
My Work
Wildlife Photography & Photo Tours - I lead photo safaris and expeditions to Bandhavgarh, Ranthambhore, Pench, and Masai Mara. Wild adventure, real stories.
Creative Wildlife Photography Techniques - We don’t just click. We paint with light, mood, and perspective. Learn golden hour silhouettes, dramatic black & white, and more.
Mentoring & Skill Building - I teach everything from basic composition to Intentional Camera Movement. Real tips, hands-on, not just theory.
Habitat Composition Techniques - We show the wild as it is. Subjects with their habitat, raw and soulful – not just Insta-perfect shots.
