His visual storytelling continues through expeditions across Spiti Valley, where he has documented the elusive snow leopard and the delicate balance of life in the Himalayas.
As a mentor, Yogesh leads wildlife photography tours and expeditions across India and Africa, training photographers to master fieldcraft, behaviour study, and storytelling compositions. His mission is to use the power of photography to inspire awareness and action for wildlife conservation.
