Arunn Bhagavathula

I began my journey in photography 50 years ago, when my father placed a 120mm Voigtländer camera in my hands. What started as curiosity soon became a lifelong engagement with the craft.

My early years with film taught me discipline and patience, where every frame mattered. That foundation continues to shape my approach today.

While I built a career in marketing and later as a Recruitment Consultant, my interest in people remained constant. This naturally reflects in my photography as well.

With the digital era, I reconnected more actively with photography. I currently use a Fujifilm system and regularly participate in photo walks, which I find valuable for learning and engaging with fellow photographers.

I do not limit myself to a single genre. Street photography, wildlife and landscapes are areas I frequently explore. My approach is simple: subject first, followed by composition and exposure. I also believe that a photograph is best complemented by a meaningful caption.

Even after five decades, I continue to learn and remain a student of light.
