About
I am in my final year at Pathshala. Most of my own work is made outside Dhaka — forests, rivers and the places at the edge of the city — but I shoot in it too, and I like a portrait as much as a landscape.
I work on a digital body with a borrowed long lens, grade my own files, and I am comfortable on somebody else's set as a second pair of hands.
What I shoot
Landscape & wildlife
Early light, long lenses, a lot of waiting. Mostly outside Dhaka.
Portraits & documentary
People in the places they are. Available light, no direction, no flash.
Assisting
Second shooter, lighting assistant, digital tech. I carry, I meter, I keep the cards straight.
