Namaste! I am Pawan Srivastava, the founder and lead storyteller behind Pawan Photography Tour.

Born and raised in the timeless, mystical lanes of Varanasi (Banaras), my relationship with visual storytelling began right here, amid the glowing ghats, the morning mist of the Ganges, and the vibrant chaos of the ancient alleyways. While I pursued my formal education and earned my Bachelor of Commerce (B.Com) from Mahatma Gandhi Kashi Vidyapith (MGKVP), Banaras, my heart always belonged to the world outside the classroom.

The structure of numbers taught me balance, but the streets taught me how to capture life in its rawest, most authentic form.

My Passion: Street Photography Across India

What started as a hobby quickly turned into a lifelong obsession. Street photography is not just about taking pictures; it is about freezing a fleeting moment, an unspoken emotion, a slice of culture.

Over the years, I have traveled across the length and breadth of India, capturing the diverse spirit of our country. From the high-energy festivals to the quiet daily routines of locals, my camera has been my constant companion in documenting the real, unedited India.
