With couples, it’s even better. I see a story every time two people come together, and my job is to capture that story, not just faces. ### What I Offer - Pre-wedding films and photos that go beyond just posing. I love building a concept around your vibe, mixing romantic moments with fun, and sometimes making a whole cinematic film. - Cinematic couple portraits for those who want that moody, film-like look. I chase raw emotion, dramatic shadows, and real connection. - Casual and save-the-date shoots. We can keep it chill, walk around, hang out, and get those candid pre-wedding photography shots that feel like you. - Insta-ready cinematic reels. Short, music-backed videos, edited for sharing. These are a hit for couples who want something quick and beautiful. ### Locations I Love Mumbai is my playground. I’m always up for turning a regular spot into something magical. Could be the busy streets, Lonavala hills, Bandra seaside, or even a custom set. I like showing how the location transforms in the final shot. ### My Process We’ll chat about what you want. I’ll guide you if you’re camera-shy, but mostly I want you to forget I’m there and just be together. When you see the photos, I want you to say, “Ek number!” (Excellent!). If you’re up for it, *shoot karein?* (Shall we shoot?) ## Highlights Browse through Ankish Patel's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/ankish.photographs/couples-pre-wedding-photoshoot/featured) - ![**(Hero Item)** This is the kind of cinematic portrait I love to create.

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. ## More services from Ankish Patel - [Content Creation for Brands & Influencers](https://mytribe.in/ankish.photographs/content-creation-for-brands-influencers) · ₹5-20K per shoot (estimate) - [Personal Portrait Photoshoot](https://mytribe.in/ankish.photographs/personal-portrait-photoshoot) · ₹2,200-8,000 per session (estimate) ## Experts similar to Ankish Patel on mytribe - [Couple & Pre-Wedding Photography by Aakash](https://mytribe.in/aakash__kushwah/couple-pre-wedding-photography) · ₹8-25K per shoot (estimate) · Mumbai Metropolitan Area - [Pre-Wedding Photoshoots & Films by Ankit Studios](https://mytribe.in/ankit_studios/pre-wedding-photoshoots-films) · ₹35K-1.2L per shoot (1 day, Mumbai city) (estimate) · Mumbai Metropolitan Area - [Couple & Engagement Photography by Omi Bhoir](https://mytribe.in/omi_bhoir_photography_/couple-engagement-photography) · ₹8-25K per shoot (estimate) · Mumbai Metropolitan Area - [Pre-Wedding Photoshoots & Films by Wedding Photographer](https://mytribe.in/amanbajpei_photography/pre-wedding-photoshoots-films) · ₹15-40K per shoot (estimate) · Aman Bajpei Photography - [Wedding Photography by Kavish Photography](https://mytribe.in/kavishphotography/wedding-photography) · ₹70K-1.2L per wedding (estimate) · Mumbai Metropolitan Area - [Couple Photography by Balkrushna Khade](https://mytribe.in/krrish.portraits/couple-photography) · ₹10-30K per session (estimate) · Mumbai Metropolitan Area - [Wedding & Couples Photography by Himanshu Shetty](https://mytribe.in/himanshushetty_photography/wedding-couples-photography) · ₹25-60K per day (estimate) · Mumbai Metropolitan Area - [Pre-Wedding & Couple Photoshoots by Rahul Patwa](https://mytribe.in/_rahulpatwa_/pre-wedding-couple-photoshoots) · ₹18-80K per shoot (estimate) · Mumbai Metropolitan Area - [Pre-Wedding & Couple Shoots by That's Amor](https://mytribe.in/thats_amor.weddings/pre-wedding-couple-shoots) · ₹15-50K per shoot/session (estimate) · Mumbai Metropolitan Area - [Pre-Wedding Photoshoot by Melroy Creado](https://mytribe.in/melroycreadophotography/pre-wedding-photoshoot) · ₹18-60K per shoot (estimate) · Mumbai Metropolitan Area - [Pre-Wedding Shoots by The Wedding Diaries](https://mytribe.in/theweddingdiaries.in/pre-wedding-shoots) · ₹25K-1L per shoot (estimate) · The Wedding Diaries- Wedding Photographer in Mumbai ## Book To book Ankish Patel, message mytribe on WhatsApp: [Chat on WhatsApp](https://wa.me/916360004054?text=Hi%2C%20I'm%20looking%20for%20Couples%20%26%20Pre-Wedding%20Photoshoot%20by%20Ankish%20Patel.)
