Kiran is a photojournalist working throughout Europe and Asia, concentrating on news, social-political topics and the human experience. His recent work includes the Australian bushfires, the Hong Kong Pro-Democracy protest, and the Greek/Turkish border refugee crisis.

Kiran talks with Chris and David about his career as a photojournalist, which has taken him into some volatile situations and has seen him pick up a number of awards in recent years. 

In 2019, Kiran’s portfolio of 10 images of the Hong Kong protests saw him win TPOTY’s Travel Documentary category. Part of his prize was a place on Timothy Allen’s TAPSA scholarship and a trip to the Xposure Festival of Photography in Sharjah, where he, and a small group of photographers from around the world, received mentoring and the opportunity to meet with some of the world’s leading photographers.
