An engineer by training, I now lead wildlife photography expeditions specializing in environmental portraits. I build my own camera traps to tell nocturnal stories and believe every image should be a tool for conservation.

My Story
Hi, I’m Yashpal. Used to be an electrical engineer, but forests kept calling louder. Now, you’ll find me out there, building my own camera traps (sometimes elephants get curious), counting birds, tracking tigers, and snapping photos when the jungle lets me. Saw a pseudo-melanistic tiger once, that was wild! Co-wrote 'Tiger Tiger Burning Bright' too. For me, every photo is a story – a piece of the wild to share.
My Work
Wildlife Photography & Expeditions - I guide small group wildlife expeditions, mentor on photography, and share stories from Indian jungles to the Arctic.
Photography Style - I love backlight and wide shots. My thing is environmental animal portraits, showing animals in their world.
Custom Camera Traps - I build my own DSLR camera traps for nocturnal animal photography – sloth bears, leopards, you name it.
