A Creative Journey Through Himachal Pradesh
Basunti Retreat Centre.
One of my recent assignments took me to the breathtaking Himachal Pradesh region of India, where I had the privilege of creating content for the Basunti Yoga Retreat. Nestled on the edge of a pristine lake surrounded by lush greenery, Basunti offers a serene escape for yoga enthusiasts. My role was to capture the essence of this magical retreat through photography and video for a new website I’m building for them.

Life at Basunti.
This short film takes you through the grounds of Basunti, capturing the calm and character of the retreat.
Here are some examples of the photography I created at Basunti, which will feature as part of the website.
Life on Maharana Pratap Sagar.
David, who founded Basunti, took me to the lake to witness this quiet moment as a fisherman returned to shore, his boat gliding across the still water. A simple scene, yet full of rhythm and atmosphere, reflecting the timeless connection between people and the water.
Village life in the Punjab.
I had the chance to spend an afternoon in a small farming village in Punjab, guided by someone who grew up there and whose parents still call it home. As the day drew to a close, the golden light settled over the fields and narrow lanes, creating the perfect backdrop to photograph everyday life. From farmers at work to quiet moments in the village, it was a glimpse into a way of life that felt both timeless and deeply rooted in the land.

The Golden Temple, Amritsar.
A visit to Punjab wouldn’t be complete without experiencing the Golden Temple in Amritsar. This reel captures a little of its beauty—the golden reflections, the light, and the atmosphere that make it such an extraordinary place
Early evening in the villages around Basunti is a special time of day for the light and seeing local life.
