Being an IIT B-Tech graduate, I am fortunate to get a chance to pursue my greatest passion in life which is photographing subjects. As a techie, I like my work to be distinctly different from others. I always visualize before the shoot what I would like to create and then improvise as we shoot.

My trademark is my aesthetics which is a playful mix of color, light, and shadow to create contrast, harmony, and depth to enhance the mood and atmosphere of my portraits.

I admire the work of many great portrait and wildlife photographers, and many of my works will have some influence somewhere.

Most importantly, I always strive to deliver not only stunning images but meaningful ones, that tell a story and evoke emotions.

Lastly, I am based out of Lucknow, a proud Lucknowite, who loves to explore new places and local cuisines where ever I go.

Thank you for visiting my website and hope you enjoyed viewing my work and reading about me. If you are looking to book a shoot for your project, I’d love to discuss it with you. You can contact me here or on Instagram or Facebook.
