I get a kick out of watching people discover those aha moments with studio lighting or nailing a shot they thought was out of reach. Learning photography should be an experience, not just a transaction. ### How We Learn Together - No boring lectures here. We shoot, we experiment, we mess up, and we fix it. - You’ll work with top gear, shoot with real models, and see the difference instantly. - Theory is there, but only the stuff that matters when you’re actually behind the camera. - Whether in studio, on a photowalk, or outdoors, I keep it practical – and it’s always a group vibe, never just a classroom. ### Core Workshops - **Studio Lighting Techniques:** The ‘Light ka khel’ (game of light) – 3 D’s, creative setups, clamshell lighting for flawless faces. I’ll break it down in Hindi or English, whatever works. - **Cinematic Projection Photography:** My jam – create wild studio backgrounds with projectors, AI tools, and pro lighting. No color banding headaches. - **Portrait Posing Guidance & Fashion:** From edgy fashion shoots to maternity, newborn, and couple sessions. Safety first, always. ### Learn from Experts Too I bring in specialists for food, beauty retouch, maternity, and film. You’ll get perspectives from the best, not just me. ### Gear You Actually Use Everything from Sony A9III (global shutter, haan bhai) to Zeiss lenses and serious lighting – you get hands-on. ### Where It Happens Workshops run out of my Noida studio. Sometimes they’re free, sometimes not, but always worth your time. ## Highlights Browse through SPS Kalra's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/spskalra/photography-workshops-mentoring/featured) - ![This is the kind of dynamic, high-energy shot we learn to create.

Fashion and cinematic photography is my thing, but honestly, teaching gives me a bigger kick. My Noida studio isn’t just for shooting - it’s where I host workshops, help folks pick up basics or master lighting. I love running free photowalks in Delhi, no registration, just pure enthusiasm. If you’re keen to learn or shoot, just show up. That’s how I roll. ### My work - **Fashion & Cinematic Photography**: I shoot high-end fashion and cinematic portraits for brands and individuals, making every frame count. - **Photography Workshops**: From basics to advanced lighting, I run workshops at my Noida studio for anyone who’s interested. - **Projection Background Photography**: Want a vintage car or a forest backdrop? I use projection to create cinematic studio shoots, no travel needed. - **Lighting Techniques**: Light is king. Whether it’s minimal gear bridal portraits or clamshell setups, I sculpt faces for that sapaat chehra glowing look. - **Top-Notch Equipment**: Sony A9III, Profoto, Aputure… I use top gear for every shoot, so your vision turns real. ## More services from SPS Kalra - [Fashion & Commercial Photography](https://mytribe.in/spskalra/fashion-commercial-photography) · ₹30K-1.2L per shoot/session (estimate) ## Experts similar to SPS Kalra on mytribe - [Photography Education & Workshops by Vipin Gaur](https://mytribe.in/vipingaur/photography-education-workshops) · ₹2-10K per participant per day (estimate) · Vipin Gaur Photography - [Photography Workshops & Training by Manav Chugh](https://mytribe.in/creativechughcreation/photography-workshops-training) · ₹800-5,000 per participant (estimate) · National Capital Region - [Photography Education by Memories by Barkha](https://mytribe.in/memoriesbybarkha/photography-education) · ₹3-20K per attendee per workshop (estimate) · National Capital Region - [Photography Workshops & Training by Little Toes by Muskan](https://mytribe.in/littletoesbymuskan/photography-workshops-training) · ₹9-18K per participant per workshop (estimate) · Little Toes by Muskan - [Portrait & Fashion Photography by Atishay Singh](https://mytribe.in/atishay_photography/portrait-fashion-photography) · ₹8-25K per session (estimate) · National Capital Region - [Fashion & Portrait Photography by Pranav Prabhakar](https://mytribe.in/the_prime_shooter/fashion-and-portrait-photography) · ₹8-25K per session (estimate) · National Capital Region - [Fashion & Portrait Photography by A Classic Studio](https://mytribe.in/aclassicstudio/fashion-portrait-photography) · ₹5-18K per session (estimate) · National Capital Region - [Fashion & Portfolio Photography by Sweet Forever](https://mytribe.in/wdstudiosofficial/fashion-portfolio-photography) · ₹9-25K per session (estimate) · WD Studios ## Book To book SPS Kalra, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20Photography%20Workshops%20%26%20Mentoring%20by%20SPS%20Kalra.)
