VINEET VOHRA
Born on 2nd November 1973, in New Delhi,India with a first-class degree in fine arts from the prestigious College of Arts, I am a self-taught photographer. Street photography is a passion that I live like a discipline. Although I started shooting as a wildlife photographer for two years, I switched on to street in 2001. It instantly became my passion and my first nature. To me, street photography is a journey and I travel every day, I am learning and unlearning every day, I thrive to improve every day. Life in general, which is so unexpected, I try to be as honest through my lens as I can.
I try to synthesize between human elements and the environment & my main focus is how to make ordinary moments look extraordinary. I think every one of us should get involved with photography because it gives more than one can ever imagine. In 2011, APF(artphotofeature.com) magazine was formed, APF is born from an education imperative, it’s an evolving magazine where we recognize fresh talent. The intent is to provide a platform for emerging photographers, artists, and designers to showcase their works, works that are not necessarily commercial, to create opportunities and open new doors. The subjects explored are broad, in terms of concepts, styles, and techniques. I want to explore the limits and possibilities. I’m a Leica Ambassador, first-ever Indian in the history of Leica, and conducting workshops as a Leica Mentor in Leica Akademie, with various publications on the Leica blog. Before Leica I was an official Fuji X photographer, member of APF collective & thestreetcollective. Author of the successful book “The Serendipity”. Currently, I am doing workshops globally, including the Miami street photography festival, the Miami street photography festival, the Italian street photography festival, San Francisco street photography festival, the London street photography festival, Xposure photography festival Sharjah, SIPA and India photo festival. I am also on the leading judging panel of all these festivals. I have been awarded twice in a row at the Xposure photo festival by His Highness Sheikh Sultan Bin Ahmed Al Qasimi for excellence. I’ve also been giving lectures and conducting workshops in leading colleges of India for the past 12 years. My work and stories have been published in various prestigious magazines, newspapers & blogs all over the world including National Geographic, NYT, The Guardian, UK. I’ve been a part of various collective exhibitions in London, New York, Miami, Vietnam, Tel Aviv & India.

FRANCESCA CHIACCHIO
I started shooting and developing photos while studying architecture in Naples, Italy. After graduating, I took a 3-month photography course, and soon after I moved to NYC, with the desire of becoming a professional photographer. Once there, I ended up working as an architect, taking pictures in my free time. Back in Naples, in 2017 I got passionate about Street Photography, and since 2019 my work has been exhibited in various photography festivals and exhibitions worldwide, and it has been featured in numerous international magazines and webpages.
Since 2020, I am a member of the international street photography collective Through the Lands, which aims to connect 14 photographers from all over the world to show their unique P.O.V. of the countries they visit.
I am one of the 100 “Women Street Photographers” showcased in the book curated by Gulnara Samoilova and edited by Prestel Publishing.
In 2023 I was invited as Guest Speaker and Judge at the Italian Street Photo Festival and soon after I started collaborating with Fujifilm Italia to narrate the Summer Jamboree Festival of Senigallia in one of their X-Stories. In the same year I won the second prize with my collection “Napolism” at the Gothenburg Street Photo Festival; and I was invited by Eyeshot Magazine to run a series of photowalks and photo-experiences in Naples, during the Eyeshot Open Call Exhibition.
In March 2024 my name appears among 5 Masters of Street Photography on the online magazine Fotocult.it (among Marting Parr, Stefano Mirabella, Eolo Perfido and Giorgio Galimberti). At the end of March 2024 I published my first Zine with Docu Magazine. The Zine shows 20 pictures she shot at the Magh Mela Festival in India in January 2023.
