About

Home to more than one billion people, the subcontinent of India bristles with an eclectic melange of ethnic groups, which translates into moments of cultural diversity, something that Kristian Bertel is searching for as a travel and documentary photographer and who presents a selection of his images from India. He was born April 14, 1980 and has been a photographer for more than 10 years, and he currently resides in Denmark. Originally he is trained as graphic designer from Aarhus Tech, but he took up photography in 2006 and started his photographic career aged 26 taking portraits in the streets in different countries. He is mostly known for his series of Indian images, which started as a long-term project on India in 2008. He took pictures of the Indian people and their life conditions. He has specialized in documentary photography and his work is published on Kristian Bertel | Photography which contains 15 galleries that describe common life in India. Kristian Bertel has received recognition for his work from members in numerous photo communities such as on his page on Facebook.
