About Event & Behind-the-Scenes Photography
Process First, Always
For me, photography is about the whole process, not just the final shot. I like getting my hands dirty, working with the lights, and being there for every "lights, camera, action" moment. The best photos? They always come after a bit of sweat and a lot of setup.
Big Events, Live Shows & Corporate Vibes
I've shot all kinds of live gigs - from corporate summits like the Skift India Summit to brand launches (think Realme or Revolt Motors), and even government projects. My focus is on capturing both the energy and the details. That means everything from the big branding moments to those blink-and-miss reactions in the crowd.
You’ll find me:
- Documenting intense moments at business conclaves
- Shooting official headshots (like for UP Yoddhas)
- Freezing the excitement of comedy roasts and cultural dance shows
- Getting right into the action for TEDx talks or backstage with the artists
BTS - The Real Story
What I really love? Showing how the magic happens. My candid behind-the-scenes coverage is all about the messy, creative bits: setting up lights, trying weird hacks (yep, fish wire for floating products), and catching the team doing their thing. The story behind the shot always matters to me.
Solo Hustle or Team Mode
Sometimes I handle everything myself, other times I blend into a bigger creative crew. Delhi/NCR is home, but I’m always up for travel if your project’s got that extra zing. Moment hai bhai, moment hai (This is the moment, man).

My Story
Hey, I'm Manav, freelance photographer from Delhi NCR. Realme called me 'Innovative Creator of the Year' – felt like, bhai, yeh toh badi baat ho gayi! But for me, it’s all about the grind – sketching ideas, messing with lights, chasing that one shot. Shot stuff for Pretty Good Roast Show, worked with brands, taught college kids so they don’t blank out in the real world. Whether it’s Diwali with family or chilling at Yamuna ghat, I just want to capture real moments.
