Mumbai ki galiyon mein camera lekar ghoomta rehta hoon (roaming with my camera in Mumbai’s streets). I love catching those random moments - someone chilling at Marine Drive, crossing a railway bridge, or just lost in the crowd. I walk up, say, 'Excuse me, do minute baat kar sakta hu?' (Can I talk for two minutes?) Thoda awkward hota hai, but when they see their photo, their smile says it all. That’s the best part for me. Mumbai ki beauty, mast log, sab kuch real hai. ### My work - **Street Photography & Portraits**: I capture street style portraits and candid Mumbai photography. No studio, just the city and you. - **Cinematic Reels & Brand Shoots**: I make cinematic influencer reels and do brand shoots in real Mumbai locations. Natural railway station shoots, crowded markets, wherever you want. - **Quick, Real, No Posing**: I work fast. No complicated poses. Just be yourself, and I’ll catch your everyday beauty in photo sessions. - **For Anyone, Anywhere**: College students, doctors, Dubai se Dombivli tak (from Dubai to Dombivli), I shoot anyone who’s got an interesting vibe.
