I have dedicated 38 years to the field of photography, continuously working hard to refine my craft and achieve excellence. However, one of the most significant milestones in my career came within a short span of six months, when I earned the prestigious Artist (AFIAP) distinction from the International Federation of Photographic Art. Achieving this honor so quickly is often considered a pinnacle for any photographer, and it would not have been possible without the right guidance and support.
I owe this tremendous success to the mentorship of Mr. Dinesh Ayantha Perera, Sri Lanka’s first recipient of the EFIAP/B distinction, a Master Artist (MAPS), and a globally recognized, multi-award-winning photographer. Mr. Perera, who is currently living and working in Australia, is also the founder and coordinator of the renowned Master Art course, as well as the CEO-Director of Maxgro International PVT LTD. His insightful guidance and unwavering commitment to excellence were key factors in my ability to achieve international recognition and win numerous prestigious photography awards from around the world.
I am immensely grateful to Mr. Dinesh Ayantha Perera for his genuine support, exceptional leadership, and commitment to fostering artistic talent. His influence has not only helped me attain remarkable success but has also inspired me to continue pursuing excellence in photography with renewed passion.
