Brought up in Mumbai, Sonali was never inclined towards photography initially but had a love for travel and a curiosity about places and people. Moving to Hong Kong 15 years ago actually pulled her closer to India and now her wanderlust is fairly insatiable.Doing a documentary on drug addiction made her realize that working on social issues was her passion. Having visited most of the South East Asian countries – Cambodia, Thailand and the Philippines to name a few, India still remains her favorite. Travel photography is what inspires her the most.
