Sonali Ohrie (b. 1995, London, UK) is a self-taught South Asian Female Photographer and Director, brought up in England and raised in a Hindu-Punjabi household. Hardly able to find highly acclaimed visual assets from an Indian female perspective (try to think how many springs to mind now...), she quit her full-time job to change that narrative and ensure there isn’t a lack of female Indian photographers in the future. She utilises her images (still or motion) as a catalyst for change, particularly in expressing themes of power, intimacy, and womanhood. Through her punchy and impactful images, she portrays authentic stories while also confronting harmful stereotypes, aiming to enlighten her audience. In 2022, she won the Female in Focus Global Photographer Award with the renowned British Journal of Photography, where her work was exhibited in London and NYC. This was won with the first professional portrait she ever took. In 2023, the first video she made was picked up by Vogue and Levis. She then went on to make her official Video Directing debut with Apple Inc.
