Guest Faculty

Navin Vatsa started his journey in photography with a simple point and shoot camera with the sole intention to capture family moments almost 16 years back. But life has its own plans while you are busy with your own. After his wife’s accidental death in 2009, the loneliness and responsibilities towards his Son as a single parent completely consumed him and the love for photography lingered on. One day while flipping through old family albums, he realised his calling. He didn’t think twice before leaving his 16 years long teaching and administrative career in a reputed University to turn a full-time photographer.

Navin is a brand ambassador and mentor of Tamron. His life as an educator and administrator helped him find the maturity to visualize and develop ideas and implement them through his photography. In his own words “Photography is my meditation, my stress buster.”
