Shriya Patil
"I
see, I feel & I capture our world!"
Born artist, photographer and adventurer trekker, with a parental background
in art and passion for traveling nurtured the talents of a youngest
member of the family.
Shriya Patil is a photographer
based in Mumbai, (India) specializing in photojournalism.
She works for 'The Times of India’ publications'- 'Bombay Mirror'
newspaper. And has been published her work with Press Trust of India
(India’s only news agency) and Better Photography magazine
(one of the largest selling magazine of South Asia). Photography was
hobby for her when she was in school. In her late teens, Shriya began
using a camera as a creative _expression tool to communicate to others
all that inspired her. The photographs resulting from that creative
expression spawned a freelance photojournalist. Shriya also has an active
list of personal photographic projects.
She has curiosity about different cultures and way
of living. This is what drives her life and her work. Shriya has
learned that, always watch and wait for that moment. Newspaper photography
is like a foundation for her.
Shriya a young professional photographer, developed this passion through
trekking. The unexplored places of India offer breath taking, enthralling
routes, and visiting different people of various places always fascinated
me, since my childhood days. Some remote places of India -Maharashtra
which has no mention in tourists books, feel like a genuine discovery
of a long lost land to a traveler. What is important is that our ancestors
past should reach not only ears but eyes too. A photograph can speak
thousand words, by portraying time-realities in life facts and happenings.
This is a shortest method how she conveys things at a glance. All in
all nothing is possible without the theory of relativity. So Shriya
feels humanitarian needs can be fulfilled with the Trio experience;
she has- photography, challenging trekking and journalism.
Recently Shriya Patil has received an honorable mention award- in
Mumbai press photography award.
