K Madhavan Pillai, the Editor of Better Photography, strongly believes that photography is as much a spiritual journey, besides being a creative pursuit. According to him, photography is not just about patience and contemplation… the act of making a photograph is also a labour of love.

Gurjender Singh Virdi, the Managing Editor, is a publishing veteran, who has conceptualised and headed a number of different publications over the years. Besides acutely looking at the magazine with a magnifying eye, he also enjoys blogging about his views on the publishing scene in India.

Technical Editor Shridhar Kunte is the man we turn to, when it comes to understanding any sort of technical knowhow—not just about cameras but also other gadgets and devices. An engineer by heart, he has manufactured some interesting products from scratch, including macro photography solutions, sound-activated triggers and even audio amplifiers.

Senior Features Writer Raj Lalwani is almost always found with a camera around his neck—at times, even when he is sleeping. He believes that photography assumes a new meaning every time he looks through the viewfinder. According to him, inspiration lies in the fantastic, the ordinary and in love.

Senior Features Writer Neha Mutreja enjoys pursuing unusual frames with a zest that belies her practical, candid approach to most other things. She enjoys interacting with different kinds of photographers and her knowledge and command over Hindi is good enough to stump almost anyone. She can be extremely appreciative of a job well done and equally scathing in her criticism.

Features Writer Ambarin Afsar not only enjoys exploring photography from unique perspectives, but is also greatly interested in different kinds of art forms, including fractal art and graphic novels. A voracious reader, you usually identify her as the one who always has her eyes buried into a book.

Features Writer Supriya Joshi prefers to describes herself in a rather unique manner. She calls herself a “photographer, writer, unabashed confessor, philosopher, carnivore, item girl, freak, cute-as-a-button, metal head and above all, one amazing human being.” Touché.

Features Writer Chandni Gajria likes to point her camera at almost everything, she greatly enjoys wedding photography. She is one of the most entertaining members of the team, with an ability to mimic quirky sounds of all kinds.

Features Writer Aditya Nair enjoys the digital process as much as he likes making photographs. Almost every time he sees a picture, he looks at it and wonders how it can be improved digitally, or maybe altered to create something else altogether.

Features Writer Priyanka Chharia likes to describe herself as a visual scientist. She lives in a colourful world but the duality of black and white takes precedence when it comes to making images. She is interested in engaging with multiple forms of the visual and looks at photography as a way of life. Her dream is to live in a darkroom.

Assistant Art Director Santosh Kamble aka Fireman, loves to ask whether he can fire away the magazine’s pages to the press. With diverse interests ranging from Michael Jackson’s dance moves to art and design theories from around the world, he finishes laying out articles before we even get a chance to breathe.

Senior Designer Bhavna Bastav is one of the newer additions to the team. Her interests revolve around appreciating photographs and being photographed.

Junior Designer Uttam Kumar‘s journey in Better Photography coincides with his first ever visit to Bombay from Bhilai, Chattisgarh. While he loves to experiment with different art forms, his favourite medium remains pencil on paper.
