More about Shathusan M....

What do you love about your job?

I love that every shoot is completely different. One week I'm courtside at a Volleyball England final, the next I'm photographing a Tamil milestone celebration for a family in Milton Keynes. The variety keeps it interesting and constantly pushes me to adapt, different lighting, different subjects, different energy. I also love meeting so many new and different people across all environments, whether it be fellow photographers, spectators or athletes at sporting events.

What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?

I have photographed sports competitions, university events, cultural celebrations, portraits, and social events. I focus on capturing natural reactions, key moments, and small details that help tell the story of the event, and in turn make them special

Awards, honors, and recognitions received

I have received recognition for my sports and event photography through my work covering university sport, including being awarded Media of the Week for my photography and media coverage. My work has also been featured across university sports and society social media, helping events reach wider audiences.

A fun fact about this photographer

I’m a big car enthusiast and a huge Formula 1 fan. I’ve always loved cars and motorsport, so naturally I enjoy combining that interest with photography whenever I get the opportunity.
