H Bhattar (Hrishikesh Bhattar)

As an Artist, Director & Photographer I want the Images captured to be bold, exciting world one in which the subject, be it a product or an individual, stands out & shines. Care towards compositions or of color and tone should ignite my viewer’s imagination to enter into my creative world in which they can relate to their personal stories.

This is the power that Photography and Film always had for me. I recognized it when I had access to point and shoot film camera at the age of 12 years. Motivation and Passion towards my craft led me towards my BFA (Bachelors of Fine Arts) from SCAD (Savannah College of Art & Design) under supervision of Michael James O’Brian (former student of Ansel Adams) & Allen Cooley (Fashion, Commercial & Celebrity photographer). Ever Since, I’ve broadened my capacities and become a Director, shepherding ideas from briefs to concepts to production shoots to deliverables. To each project I bring my experience and my keen eye.

I belive “To master Photography, one has to master Lighting” to creatively emphasize on story telling. My recent work focuses on narration and mood that one receives from their subjects. Please feel free to check out my work, look forward to hearing back from you!!
