At Sonakshi Photography, we believe every great photographer starts with a single click—and a passion to see the world differently. If you’re just beginning your journey into photography, you’re about to enter a creative and deeply rewarding space.

The first step is knowing why you’re drawn to photography. Maybe it’s the joy of capturing emotions, the beauty of light and landscapes, or simply documenting everyday moments. Whatever your reason, let it guide you. Don’t worry about expensive gear right away. Many of us started with just a phone or a basic camera—what matters most is learning how to use it with intention. Begin by getting familiar with the basics: how aperture, shutter speed, and ISO affect your images. This foundation gives you control and creativity in every shot.

Natural light will be your best tool in the beginning. Practice shooting in different conditions, especially during golden hour, when the light is soft and flattering. As you start taking more photos, focus on simple composition techniques—like the rule of thirds or finding interesting angles—to add more depth and balance to your images.
