As a photographer, I notice how the entire colour palette changes in monsoon. The sky turns grey, the greens get brighter, the mud becomes a deep earthy tone. It naturally adds contrast and depth to the photos.

There’s so much positive energy, so much human connection that as a photographer, I don’t just document them, I live the moment with them.

I set out with an open mind, determined to focus on the photography rather than my discomfort. And I’m glad I did, because Sassoon Dock is nothing short of a visual feast.

hotography, for me is an act of observation, of slowing down to feel a moment before capturing it. While I don't follow rigid rules, I do follow a conscious rhythm,  a thought process that quietly unfolds every time I’m out with my camera. There are five elements I naturally look for before I take a photograph. These aren’t steps, but rather an instinctive awareness that guides my storytelling.
