Airborne in the desert
I was hired by Sony recently to shoot a series of images with their recently launched A 77 camera.
I spent a couple of mornings in the desert with some dancers for a fun shoot! Always nice to get paid to have fun! Just an animated gif for now.. will post more images in the coming days!

Dubai Portrait Project - Evgenia
To be quite honest, its been very slow going and I really need to jump back on it and start producing more work for it.
Its a very simple project that involves photographing random people that respond to my classified postings on Dubai websites. The point is to photograph them in 'their' spaces.
If you ask me why... I am just curious.. and I am curious about how and why people live in Dubai.
I met Evgenia... say hello :)

I was also able to try out a new lighting technique too! It seems to have worked well without taking away from the simplicity of the portraits.
I feel so thankful to the subjects for leaving a little piece of themselves in these images.

Dr. Anant Pai
As my brother puts it
"Here is one man who did more for this country and its cultural heritage than many who claim to be its custodians. RIP Uncle Pai"
I met him almost ten years ago on assignment for Society magazine. He did so much and was struggling to keep Tinkle, the children's illustrated magazine that he started, afloat. I think, he did manage to figure it out and stuck it out till the very end.

Smita, Bombay, Feb 2011
Have been lazy about posting..but here is a portrait of my lovely wife at a cafe in Bombay.
Even though Bombay, for me, has lost much of its charm and has become a difficult place to live in, I still grew up there, made great friends, met the woman that I would marry one day and generally had a good life there!
More soon..

Adrianna MeBarr for M
I photographed the wonderful Adriana MeBarr, life coach and yoga instructor at her home office in Dubai. Very simple shoot where I tried to capitalise on her friendly demeanor and the fact that we were able to establish a good rapport fairly quickly. Just a little bit of moving furniture around and one light freed me up to focus on her personality and general 'happiness'! Here are some other shots from the shoot
