His intercultural upbringing has been an asset in terms of his photographic explorations. Internationally recognised for his contribution to the industry, Ram remains at the forefront of his field, using both photography and fine art to create a discussion that questions the notion of identity, dress, and the power of performance.

Ram was Awarded the Arts Culture and Theatre Award (ACTA) in 2016 for his contribution to photography. His work has been shown in exhibitions worldwide including Sotheby’s, The Victoria & Albert Museum, The Wallace Collection, Somerset House and the Whitechapel Gallery and many more internationally acclaimed galleries. Since Graduating in 2019 from London College of Fashion Ram Shergill’s portraits of Amy Winehouse were acquired by The National Portrait Gallery and are now in their permanent collection. Ram has had books published internationally showcasing his work, including the highly acclaimed book, ‘India Fantastique’ published by Thames & Hudson — celebrating couturiers Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla. Ram continues to shoot for numerous international publications such as Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, The Times, The Observer, L’Officiel and W magazine.
