AUTHOR
Meet Sajin Sasidharan ..

I am a self-taught Indian amateur photographer based in Dubai, an AutoCad Engineer by profession but fueling my desire of photography on weekends alongside.

I started shooting when I was 18 but got serious once I moved to Dubai in 2010. Initially I used to shoot everything from Wildlife, Landscapes and Street Life to portraits but eventually I got to refine the category I loved most and started focusing on long exposure & B&W fine art photography.

My little achievement for the year includes:

- 2nd Place in Xposure international photography festival 2016 , Sharjah, UAE (Fine Art)

- 2nd Place in International Fine Art Photography Awards (Cityscapes);

- Nominations in Architecture and Seascapes categories (Amateur);

- Nomination in ND Awards 2015 for fine art landscape category;

- Publications in “1x.com” .

- Publication in, and on the covers of Magazine “Shades of Grey” published by a French Photojournalist and publisher and

-Publication in online magazine called 'Capture Mania'

As far as my photography technique and style are concerned, I always love minimalistic compositions with long exposure and love to play with lights & shades which are the heart beat of my images. I always keep my composition simple so my final artwork comes out perfectly clean, smooth and gives a relaxing feel while we look at it and spend lot of time in altering tonal relationships in my photos by making white what once was black and vice versa or something in between.
