Saaket Dhongde,

Commercial Photographer
I learned a lot of the basic stuff I’d missed by being self-taught, as well as gaining a solid basic grounding in the studio and digital areas I was looking for. The emphasis was on hands-on practice and practical experience rather than theory. For any one wanting to study commercial photography in India, I’d say the Shari would be a viable and worthwhile choice.

My decision of leaving IT job and coming here is the most satisfying thing. Shari is best in india among all the other institutes. I have got so much exposure during 2years, all the faculty are really special to me, they have taught not only the technical and art stuff but also about life. Environment is very friendly and family like. I love girish sir and hrid ma'am. All the resources to make our dream come true is there, we just need to be open to our dreams and make them happen. In 2 years of course, we get to learn so much and find the true passion among ourselves. I am really thankful to all the staff and faculty to make this journey fun and memorable.

Well, there couldn't be a place to learn photography better than Shari Academy. Earlier I thought of going abroad to master photography as I thought nobody would be teaching it on a professional level in India, but after learning from Shari I can guarantee there can be no school better than this when in comes to making an image. Truly thankful to Girish Mistry Sir and all the other experienced faculty for a such a wonderful learning experience.

It's the best place to learn photography in India. Not only you learn the art of making an image, but also learn the intensive planning, the teamwork, and the post process that goes behind creating an image. It has the best faculty for every genre who brings out the best in you. The 2yrs I spent here, were truly the most amazing ones.

Europe and the U.S.A. were too expensive and way beyond my wallet. I joined the Shari Academy. Their 2 years Mastercraftsman Diploma was not only affordable but also was more intense then any available abroad. I found great value for money as well as the opportunity of staying and capturing images of exotic India and bollywood Mumbai. Winner of Mastercraftsman of the year 2005, Best Fine Art Photography Award 2005, Best People/Portrait Photography Award 2005.
