I have, to date, attended three workshops which were organised by Vineet and Rohit Vohra in several Indian cities including New Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai and Varanasi. The organisation, attention to detail and the practicalities of undertaking photography has without exception been first class. Vineet and Rohit both have intimate knowledge and understanding of the most appropriate locations and timings needed to capture exciting imagery. Above all their approach is one of guidance and support including the technical aspects of photography, selection of images and importantly, praise and encouragement. I can honestly say I have improved immeasurably as a photographer and benefitted from being part of a group of like minded individuals. I have already booked for Maha Kumbh in 2025 and would not hesitate in recommending their workshops”. Steven Bonati
