About Featured

People often ask if they need to be models to look good in photos. Honestly, you don’t. My favorite shots here were not planned; they happened when the couple just started laughing or lost track of the camera. That is why I do not ask you to hold uncomfortable poses. If we are shooting at a beach or a park, we just walk, talk, and let the moment take over. That natural vibe is exactly what you see in this gallery.

Hi, I am Ajinkya. I am a Navi Mumbai-based photographer who believes your wedding photos should feel like your own memories, not a movie set. I am all about capturing that transition from ‘मी’ (me) to ‘आपण’ (we).

When a bride is ready ahead of schedule, it gives us time to play with light and shadow. This portrait of Srushti at the Turf Club is one of my favorites. I used the natural shadows from the leaves to create this dramatic, artistic black and white bridal shot that feels both timeless and modern.
Haldi ceremonies are all about joyful chaos, and I am here for it. This moment, with everyone piling on the love (and haldi) for Neha, is pure, unfiltered happiness. I love capturing the energy when family and friends just let go and have fun.
