Having been involved in international and Indian photography for over 3 decades, we have observed that many Indian photographers are extremely talented artists but do not get an opportunity to showcase their work to a global audience.
ZiiP Foundation and TurmericEarth have taken upon themeselves to change this and have created a platform - Photo Fora - for such hidden talents to get their due global recognition.
Photo Fora will include online photography portfolio reviews by international experts.

One-to-one online video conferencing
₹ 7500 per portfolio review + GST @ 18%
We could've enlisted all those photographers whose work got their due recognition in the global community because of opportunities created through us. But blowing our own trumpet is not our thing. Instead here are some stories from the photographers themselves.
Niyatee invited me to participate in the Pingyao International Photography festival. As if visiting this ancient city in China was not enough, I also got to meet fellow photographers from countries as diverse as the Dominican Republic or the Australian outback. I will forever cherish the experience of those long chats far into the night with such an insightful group of artists.
It has been an eye-opening experience for me last year at Pingyao International Photography festival having got an opportunity to exhibit my work in front of a great global audience. Thanks to the guidance and supervision of Niyatee Shinde, I could climb those ladders at ease. Meeting a varied crowd with different perspectives helped open my horizons further. And a work more personal to me, a series on the most important event in my life, could finally be exhibited at Landskrona Photo Festival in Sweden helped me further establish my space in the international photography community.
