Faces of Rajasthan, India

Rajasthan is India at its most vibrant. Epic forts to colourful festivals but how does one begin to navigate and learn about a culture to experience more than a surface-level encounter of the casual tourist. This was the conundrum I found myself contemplating while bouncing along in the back of a tuktuk. It is human nature to be endlessly fascinated by the people around you, their stories and their experiences. To immerse yourself is to engage. A click of the shutter does nothing if you have not communicated with the other human beyond the lens. These images are human stories from local Rajasthani people whose lives are as diverse as the landscapes in which they are surrounded by.
