Whether she is squeezing through a thick, sunlight deprived mangrove jungle in the Andamans, setting up an ice-cold tripod at dawn on a freezing peak in Ladakh or working in the controlled comfort of the studio, Asha is after pure adventure as much as that rare magical image.
A successful advertising photographer, Asha started photographing people, places, history and cultures a decade ago. Largely self taught, she says, "I am guided by my eye and heart rather than any old textbook. I relish the challenge of relying on an instinctive eye for a picture".
Her photographs have been published in magazines, books, calendars and commercial projects around the world. There is plenty of evidence of her work within the pages of this book.
Asha has photographed some of India's most secluded and ancient tribes over the past year; this body of work will soon be published as a coffee table book.
