About Photography Workshops & Tutoring
Why I Teach Photography
For me, photography is honestly life. I’m Suraj, and I get a real kick out of both shooting and helping others see the world in new ways through their camera. I keep things simple, real, and fun.
What We Actually Do
- Start from scratch with DSLR camera basics workshop, so you’re not stuck on auto mode.
- Learn how to nail that background blur (bokeh), sharp landscapes, and how to get the most out of your gear, no matter what you’re carrying.
- We’ll get practical with hands-on photography lessons, not just boring theory. Bangalore’s got enough cool spots for us to explore and try things out.
Shooting With Feeling
- It’s not just about clicking - I’ll show you how to compose, use leading lines, and frame your shots so your pictures have some real feel to them.
- We’ll practice capturing honest moments on the street, play around with nature close-ups, and experiment with light.
The Editing Side
- Shooting is only half - I’ll walk you through my creative photo editing workflow using Lightroom and Photoshop.
- Learn how to work with Camera Raw and develop a vibe that’s all your own, whether you like punchy colors or moody tones.
My Style
I don’t do too much theory. We’re out there, clicking, messing up, and learning as we go. My goal? Help you tell your own stories with your photos.

My Story
Hey, I'm Suraj from One Frame Photography. My camera’s always with me, whether I’m at Hampi or just chilling at Nandi Hills. Started this thing with my mom’s blessings, so it means a lot. Won 'Most Creative Student' once—felt on top of the world that day! For me, photography is not just work, it’s what I breathe. I just love clicking, simple as that.
My Work

My Style - Not about fancy stuff—just real moments, real expressions. I try to find art in everyday scenes.
Where I Work - I shoot anywhere—Cubbon Park, Hampi, city streets. Love outdoor spots and new places.
Gear & Editing - I use a Nikon D750, edit in Lightroom and Photoshop for the right feel.
