My sincere thanks to Arun Sir who built my interest in photography. My journey started with a theoretical workshop with him in kolkata where I learned more than I could imagine about this field of art. The best part about Arun Sir is his vision. His photographs and the knowledge he gives us about the same always says a story. The workshop made me attend the actual field trip to Varanasi for Dev Deepawali . It was just fantastic, I learned a lot as communicating with him is so comfortable. I am looking forward to attend more of ASP field trips as they are fun and I meet so many new amazing photographers too.

At the outset I would like to thank my mentor Mr. Arun Saha with whom I attended my first ever workshop in the true sense, the JEJURI-KOLHAPUR PHOTO TOUR & WORKSHOP.
The 3 c’s of a true mentor Clarity, Communication and Commitment are all imbibed in him. What was very noticeable was his dedication towards his group; each member was his priority whether he was just starting his photography journey or had been on it for a long time. His intention is to pass on as much of his experience to people as time and their expectations allow.
I would like to thank you for focusing on my weaknesses and guiding me throughout the journey letting me know which areas to prioritise and improve.
Thank you Arun Saha and ASP for making it memorable for me and even though you are a hard task master I will definitely be joining you for more such workshops. And to the others who have not yet tested an experience with him, if given a chance to attend one, grab it before it’s gone.

Just had a memorable Phototour “Royal Rajasthan…A Desert Odyssey” organised by ASP. It was a wonderful experience under the mentorship of Mr. Arun Saha and shooting with other passionate senior photographers for the last few days. We enjoyed a lot and are going back with a lot of good memories and unforgettable unique moments. I strongly recommend every photographer for such phototours with ASP.

If someone doesn’t have a sweet memory with Arun Saha as a photo mentor in any ASP Phototour, it’s his failure. Despite being a complete amateur and hobbyist with little knowledge of various aspects of photography, still I could end up capturing some satisfactory frames because of his able guidance in my photo tours with him.
Recently I have completed a photo tour with Arun Saha to cover “Theyyam” which I think was highly challenging, technically as well as physically. But his mentorship eased everything. Prior to our tour, he held a webinar discussing every detailed knowledge about this night photography which was full of action. Moreover, balancing the highlight of fire on one side and the shadow on the other was the toughest part of this tour.
Apart from Theyyam, Kalaripayattu & Kambala were also part of this photo tour. From this tour, we got to capture events more than what was planned earlier.
And his arrangements for our staying and food were awesome and beyond our expectations. Every moment was delightful.
I am waiting for my next photo tour with him. My heartfelt thanks to Mr. Arun Saha and ASP.

My photo tour with ASP to Rajasthan, The Desert Odyssey under the mentorship of Arun Saha was an extremely enjoyable one.. met some great people, made new friends, learnt  a lot from everyone. Arun da himself is a warm mentor, ensured personally we get good photos and remain comfortable with our stays…and was readily available to sort out any problem.
What I got from this trip is a new experience with Photography and the understanding of how to deal with different light conditions that change the entire scenery in post-processing… Especially enjoyed the light painting exercises.

Thank you for a memorable trip. 🙂

Firstly I would like to thank Mr. Arun Saha Sir as a brilliant Mentor as well as I appreciate His patience and support. As a person I have no words to describe , He’s a very good Human Being and He’s an unbelievable Photographer.
It was a great memory for me,

Our trip to Varanasi for Dev Deepavali in 2017 was an entirely different experience.
Arun Sir’s approach to the Varanasi Dev-Deepavali workshop exemplified his knowledge, experience, and aesthetic vision.
I have learned a lot of new things about photography.
Thank you for your generosity and a very informative workshop,
“MEMORABLE WORKSHOP”

My first photo tour with Arun was the workshop in Agra in 2018. I did not even know him at that time. But the workshop was such a nice experience that I joined him in two more workshops – one in Kolhapur and the other in Agra again. Arun is such a nice human being, such a good photographer and always ready to share his knowledge with the participants of his workshop. Specially I remember how he helped me to visit the kusti akhadas in Kolhapur where usually women are not allowed. He is also a very good organiser. Hope I’ll be able to join many more of his workshops in the future.

Arun Saha is an incredibly talented photographer. His workshops are an amazing experience. A day of shooting with him teaches me more than what I can learn watching hundreds of videos. He focuses extensively on developing the art of seeing. His guidance on framing, composition, exposure and post-processing helps me tell a better story every time. I have been a fellow traveller with him on many occasions and each one seems to be better than the earlier. He is very professional and a humble human who is always ready to guide and teach.I highly recommend his photography workshops to anyone who wants to develop into a better photographer.

Our trip to varanasi Dev-deepavali in the year 2017 was a completely different experience for me. Arun not only was a great mentor but also a great human being. Arun’s way of handling the Varanasi Dev- Deepavali workshop proved his experience, knowledge and artistic vision . It was absolutely a wonderful experience to attend this workshop mentored by Arun Saha. Thank you Arun for your hospitality and a very enlightening workshop. I had a wonderful time during our workshop.
