There are people who discover the wild, and then there are people who simply return to it. Sohan belongs to the second kind. When asked why he chose the wildlife path instead of a traditional career, he smiles with the certainty of someone speaking a biological truth:

“Wildlife isn't a chosen path, it's your roots.”

It isn’t a rebellion against the expected. It isn’t an escape. It’s a homecoming. A reminder that humanity began in the quiet thrum of forests, long before cities taught our hearts to hurry. Nature, Sohan believes, isn’t an interest - it’s inheritance.

A Life Lived on Two Roads: Business and the Wild

Sohan grew up with stability. A family business that worked. An engineering degree that promised structure. But choosing one over the other felt unnatural. So he didn’t. That duality is what makes his story magnetic: analytical mind, artistic eye, primal instinct. Business sharpens him. Wildlife softens him. Photography stitches the two together.

The Lens Was Never a Hobby It Was a Calling

Some people stumble into photography. Sohan didn’t. The seed was planted early, watered by nights spent watching Discovery and NatGeo, mesmerized by the quiet dignity of creatures whose stories often go unheard. But passion isn’t free. “Like everyone says, it's an expensive hobby.” Still, he followed it. Not for fame, but for the hope that someday his lens would give people the feeling of standing inside the documentary not behind a screen.

The Feeling Sohan chases: Calm, Chaos, and Something Beyond Words

When Sohan lifts the camera, he isn’t chasing the animal. He’s chasing a sensation something that doesn't fit neatly into language. “It’s peace. It’s unpredictability. It’s a high you can’t describe.” His photographs aren’t just images. They are emotional postcards from moments most people never get to witness. And that is why people feel something when they look at his shots: Sohan felt something first.

Guiding People Is Not About Sightings, It’s About Belonging

Anyone can show you a forest. Very few can make you belong to one. Sohan sees the guide’s role as sacred. “Trees, plants, birds, mammals they all have a special role in the ecosystem. Creating a bridge between people and these aspects is the goal.” When guests begin appreciating those details - the call of a bird, the architecture of a leaf, the paused breath of a predator - the photos take care of themselves.

Every Sighting is a Gift, Never a Guarantee

Wildlife isn’t a showroom. It’s theatre without a script. “There is no guarantee you'll see a tiger or a leopard.” And that is what makes it extraordinary. Every second in the jungle is suspended between possibility and patience. Eyes sharpen. Breath slows. Hearts listen. And then, when the forest chooses to reveal itself , when stripes or spots emerge from the bush, the feeling is indescribable. A moment you cannot buy, demand, or replicate. For Sohan, these moments aren’t just sightings they’re acknowledgments from the jungle.

Moments That Stay Forever

Ask Sohan about his most unforgettable sighting, and he refuses to choose. “Every wildlife moment is special.” Not because of the animal alone, but because of the journey: the tracking, the teamwork, the whispers between leaves. Sightings feel like acceptance, a quiet acknowledgment from the jungle that he was worthy of witnessing something others missed. He has documented rare interactions. And yet, his list of dreams is far longer.

Helping Travelers Feel What the Earth Once Felt Like

Connecting travelers to the wild isn’t difficult, Sohan says. “In the wilderness, you feel you belong.” It happens automatically. Something ancient inside people wakes up. The forest becomes familiar, the silence becomes soft. Once that connection clicks, all he has to do is guide them deeper into the story explaining behaviour, habitat and nuance.

Patience: The First Law of the Wild, and of Life

The forest teaches lessons no classroom can. “Rushing does not get you anywhere.” You wait because you must. You see only when the jungle decides you’re ready. And that mirrors everything humans chase: success, purpose, peace. Nature runs on its own clock, and we exist better when we follow it. Sohan’s photography is built on this philosophy. That’s why his images don’t look rushed; they feel earned.

What Sohan Wants to Capture Next: The Unfiltered Wild

He’s only just begun. “It wasn’t too long ago I was experiencing moments only with my eyes. But that's what pushed me to start photography.” His mission is simple and profound: To show the world that every animal carries a story — one worth respecting. To document wilderness in its un-adulterated form. To make people feel like they were standing beside him when the shutter clicked. Nature has been kind to Sohan. Now he wants to return the kindness through his work.
