"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.
