Dépaysement Exhibition: Craig Boehman

I’m an American street photographer based out of Mumbai, India, primarily known for my black-and-white photography featuring India’s people through candid and street portraits. I completed my 2017 365-day street photography project called #3StrangersAday – have a look on my blog for details. I’m currently running street photography workshops out of Mumbai and have plans to take the show on the road to Europe in 2018. My images have been featured in Le Monde Diplomatique, Verve Magazine, and The Hindustan Times.

Vasai Fort lies north of Mumbai and is situated near the banks of Vasai Creek, which resembles more of a vast river with distant banks barely visible at sunrise. After visiting the fort I wanted to capture the sunrise at the creek and finally discovered the correct route. When I got there, I was in for a treat. A boat was approaching which would be loading up with ice from an awaiting truck.I shot the sequence quickly as the men worked very fast and were loaded up and motoring away in under ten minutes.
