A good number of photographers who have taken up photography as business have a website where they promote themselves. That holds good generally for photographers who have some offline presence, e.g. a shop.
However, not many Indian photographers maintain a blog. Does that mean, photographers do have a website but not a blog? Yes, most photographers' websites have a business front, where they talk of photography services, their rates, portfolios, etc. On the other hand, a photography blog focuses on photography as a subject and passion: it showcases photographs, photo-features and photo-stories, discusses the profession, shares tips, talks about gadgetry and so on. The blog may also sell photographs and photography services, but that comes as a natural offshoot.
While only some photographers maintain stand-alone blogs, many have their 'blogs' on Instagram and Pinterest, places buzzing with visual content. Many photographers have tried their hands with photo-sharing sites such as shutterstock, but only some have succeeded as their catalogs have become too crowded.
The following are among the top photography blogs in India, in English.
