About Me
Photography for me, has always been about paying attention to subjects and details that often go unnoticed.
I work primarily as a worldwide documentary photographer, shaped by my many years of travel through dozens of countries around the world. Whether it’s photographing factory workers in tight, fluorescent-lit quarters or children navigating blindness in West Bengal, the goal is the same: to make images that feel honest, beautiful and human. I also enjoy the stillness of landscape and wildlife photography, tying in my strong education in traditional analog techniques.
During my tenure at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston in the late 1990s, I developed a meticulous and intentional approach to photography. This foundational learning continues to guide my creative process, even as years of working in dynamic and unpredictable environments have honed my ability to adapt swiftly and rely on my intuition.
A significant portion of my inspiration originates from photographers such as Steve McCurry, Raghu Rai, Jimmy Nelson, and Mary Ellen Mark. These individuals approached their subjects with empathy, and their work exists in the realm between documentation and storytelling. Although I undertake commissioned work in a diverse range of styles, I maintain a documentary mindset in all of my endeavors. My focus is less on achieving perfection and more on fostering connections.

What am I working on now?
During July and August, I’ll be traveling to the northernmost part of West Bengal, near Bhutan and Himalayas. I’ll be exploring and documenting projects around tree replanting and forest rejuvenation, and the communities impacted or benefiting from these efforts. I plan to engage with farmers and villagers who are learning innovative agricultural techniques which should have positive impacts on the environment.
AVAILABLE FOR COMMISSIONS WORLDWIDE WITH EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE AND WELL-ESTABLISHED CONNECTIONS IN NORTH AMERICA, EUROPE, EASTERN AFRICA, AND INDIA.
What’s Next?
I will soon embark on two deeply compelling projects in India, each shedding light on extraordinary human narratives. The first takes me to a foundation and school for blind children, where I will immerse myself in their world, capturing the resilience, aspirations, and daily struggles of these remarkable individuals.
My second project will focus on the world of tea cultivation and production in the Himalayas, where I aim to document the meticulous processes of growing, harvesting, and crafting tea, as well as the unseen hardships endured by those who dedicate their lives to this craft.
