I’m Aarthi, an Indian Canadian nature photographer with a keen eye for the tiny details and hidden moments in nature. From the curves of a petal to the miniscule patterns on insects, I love capturing the beauty often overlooked. Exploring Toronto’s green spaces, I use my camera to tell stories about the natural world—how it thrives, adapts, and sometimes struggles. Photography is also a tool for me to be more mindful and be present in the moment.
Alongside photography, I’m passionate about teaching and have worked in community centers and a private high school, where I encouraged curiosity and a deeper connection to the natural world.
Through both my images and my teaching, I hope to inspire conservation and appreciation for the wild spaces around us.
“An understanding of the natural world and what’s in it is a source of not only a great curiosity but great fulfillment.” - Sir David Attenborough
