At the end of the film era I started my professional photography journey. Assisted few well known photographer for 2 years and started working as freelancer since 2003. Tried my luck in baby photography then in architecture photography were I got chance to explore new places and culture across India. By 2005 Slr camera were replaced by Dslr camera and I along with architecture also started doing food photography for various hotels, restaurant's and magazines. In 2013 I had major slip disc which gave a big pause to my photography carrier, I was bed ridden till 2013 end. In 2014 August I started my new profession as photography instructor. I tried my best to share my experienced and educational knowledge with students. From 2014 to 2017 December I was professor in Symbiosis School of Photography, Pune . From 2018 to 2021 January I was working with D Y Patil University, Navi Mumbai and currently I am working as Adjourn Faculty at MGM University , Aurangabad. I have also conducted personal workshops and also for various Institution's in Mumbai & Pune.
