A beautiful picture is not really the reflection of an alluring scene but is the representation of the
perception of beauty by the person behind the camera, the PHOTOGRAPHER.
PratikTalreja is an entrepreneur turned photographer known as sadak_chap in the photography
world. As his moniker sadak_chap suggests, he is a street photographer who captures
architecture, portraiture, and landscape. He has 183k followers on Instagram and is like a daddy
to all photographers. This Mumbai based photographer doesn’t really click a picture but weaves
a creative and emotional story around every picture. Talreja has an amazing talent of shooting
the rawness with grace. He is completely a street guy who loves backpack traveling with his
camera ready to point, frame and shoot. He is one of the most famous and unconventional
photographers one can ever find on Instagram. It was perhaps his unconventionality that
gave him a feature on Canon EOS and made him a TedX speaker.
Photography happened to him by chance. It was his uncle who got him a DSLR, a few years
back. This Canon600D gifted by his uncle encouraged him to click more and more pictures and
inspired him for learning photography. He started watching youtube tutorials and followed the
work of other photographers. In the loop of inspire and get inspired, sadak_chap got shaped as
a photographer. His hashtag, #maibhisadakchap is a trending tag for all photographers.
Photography is all about perspective. This picture is a perfect blend of culture, creativity, and
imagination. If you are aware of the camera aesthetics, then this picture will appear more
healing to your heart.
Decent Pictures, Weird Captions – Talreja
Talreja’s bio says, “Decent Pictures, Weird Captions”. Talreja definitely has some weird captions
on his posts. He never really had any poetic, conventional or powerful caption, yet he adds
worth reading captions to his posts. His frames are a story in themselves. His captions are as
raw as his pictures and that is what makes him unique.
