My foray into professional photography started with weddings and events. No two Indian weddings are similar given the cultural variety that we have. This makes shooting weddings interesting as well as challenging. I have spent the last 5 years covering weddings and this would continue to be my genre of photography for a long time to come.
In the last 2 years (ever since I myself became a mother), I have expanded my portfolio of offerings to include maternity, newborn babies, infants, toddlers and kids. I have a soft corner for family lifestyle shoots. Everyday life is packed with precious moments and you wish there was someone with a camera shooting exactly that.
Photography is a way of life for me and I love documenting our life as a family. You can see the collection of my personal projects here.
I am a sports enthusiast and love playing badminton. We also love to travel as a family.
This is pre-wedding customs in Rajasthani weddings, and the making of the groom for their wedding day.
this is the 1st part dedicated to the “making of the groom”
“…It was an effortless, under 2 hour (probably my fastest) post-wedding
shoot! The moments, the expressions flowed about naturally (after a little
nudge by me, of course). And excuse my reliance on a cliche, but there is
no other better way to express that these two were made for each other!..”
“… the elegant roka & ring exchange ceremony of Chiranjiv & Vasundhara. A
true-to-the-meaning charming couple, they swept everyone away with their
chemistry & love that was so evident…”
"...This is the pre-wedding photoshoot for this lovely couple in delhi...."
".....This is a throwback post to the first ever wedding that I covered as a "candid photographer". this is a tamil-iyer wedding photoshoot...."
...yet another opportunity to capture a rustic, simple and heart-touching
wedding story. I LOVE such weddings purely because they are sans any
facade. There is so much happening at any time that it is a challenge to
slice out meaningful yet alluring frames. It is a crazy swirl of emotions,
customs & practices....
this is the 2nd part sharing the visual story of their wedding
"...hese guys were such a joy to shoot and the kind of fun and merriment
that they had shows in every frame and made my job all the more difficult.
.."
"...the warmth, sincerity and affection in their relationship was
beautiful. Their engagement event was a coming together of two families
from two different cultures, infused with generous doses of spiritual
ceremonies...."
Yet another couple who shares a similar education background as I do! Love (& err.. taxation) brought these two together into a beautiful relationship.
Their wedding event kicked off with a sparkling and energetic Sangeet function followed by a simple and beautiful Anandkaraj function at the Chattarpur Gurudwara.
They were both married off with unmatched love and affection from friends and family. This was very heartening.
"...My first Bihari wedding as a photographer (and as a spectator), I was
intrigued by their interesting & unusual customs. All my doubts & queries
were very politely explained away by their friends & relatives. ...
“…D&S had a regular punjabi wedding, with a generous throw of the colour
red. Both the bride and groom’s outfits were colour coordinated to the T.
…”
“This was a traditional marwari wedding that I got a chance to shoot
alongside another very talented photographer. ”
“…I covered Ankur and Suchitra’s wedding earlier this year and loved every
bit of it. Every function, every ceremony was so heartfelt that it became
impossible to not to rejoice in their coming together. ..”

“.. it was so much fun being part of their journey from the “just engaged”
to the “happily married” stage!
Their engagement ceremony was a simple and elegant affair, held in Delhi. “
