STUFF THAT I AM GOOD AT .

Hobby to a full time profession in a decade

I have been fiddling around technology & computers right after my school days and It was around this same time that I found Linux CDs on magazines and started the never-ending exploration to learn something new. College got me both interested in struggle with topics that play a huge role in my da-to day life.

Websites like this and many more run were made by me and run on servers setup and configured by me. In fact my my site for Artriva Studios ranks very well on search results which has been only possible across tools that make managing online assets easier to easily handle the traffic that is generated. Have learnt very early from experience the need for redundancy, backups and keeping things updated (and the need/know how to automate these tasks)

My earlier full time job in design of Embedded Systems, managing servers etc. have more or less been optimised now to allow me to focus more on photography and I do come back to this stuff more as a hobby which helps to keep my costs down and still actively spend time with my wonderful friends in exploring new technology and starting new ventures.

Photography Training

The initial period of transition to a full time profession in photography involved having regular workshops for beginners in photography.
My experience is electronics, imaging technology & computers in general gives me a strong technical advantage over other photographers when it comes to creating workflows for highly accurate colour reproduction. I do regularly get enquiries for e-commerce work for premium work with low budgets (ex. for jewellery etc), these are not as profitable for the time & efforts being spent by an experienced photographer.

Hence I am now providing premium training, calibration (yes, cameras, monitors need calibration to show colours accurately) and production workflow setup for online business who already have an in-house team and high volume of e-commerce photography.
