MOHAN Foundation, in collaboration with NATCO, organized a masterclass titled “Mastering Phone Photography” on February 27, 2026, for NATCO members and MOHAN Foundation team members.
The invited speaker, Mr. Tarun Walecha, is a practicing architect and passionate photographer with experience across multiple genres, including wildlife photography. He has also completed the Organ Donation Ambassador training, reflecting his commitment to the cause.
The masterclass was moderated by Dr. Hemal Kanvinde, Quality Assurance Officer, MF Chennai. The objective was to help participants understand the importance of capturing quality photographs during awareness programmes, meetings, and events, as images are essential for documentation, reports, social media, presentations, and website updates.
Mr. Walecha shared practical tips on smartphone photography, focusing on framing, lighting, composition, and capturing natural moments to enhance storytelling. Through screen sharing and examples, he demonstrated how thoughtful photography can strengthen the visual narrative of the Foundation’s work.
The interactive session encouraged participants to ask questions and discuss common challenges faced while photographing events.
Close to 40 participants attended the session, which provided valuable guidance on improving visual documentation and strengthening communication with partners, funders, and the public.
