I am what you can call a late bloomer into photography.  I was thrust into Photography in my late 20s for the requirement of staged photos for my food blog & later was fascinated by how a photo can freeze an instance of time & tell a story, when I started working as a school event photographer.


I am Vanamala Hebbar, residing in Port Washington NY, a self learnt photographer inspired immensely by the quote “When I have a camera in my hand, I am not alone & I know no fear”,


I have a food blog for which I take my own photos & also own a portfolio website spanning varied genres.  


Importantly this isn’t about me.  This is all about the story my photographs say.  So, view the portfolio & leave a comment if you feel inspired or feel moved or just transported to a moment/place.
