About Delhi, My Muse
Most of these shots were not planned in a studio. I frequently carry my iPhone 16 Pro Max alongside my Nikon Z8 because the best city moments happen when you least expect them. Whether I am hunting for the right light at Qutub Minar or finding aesthetic symmetry in a quiet park, I focus on editing these to look cinematic without losing that grounded, Delhi feel.
For me, this city is the ultimate subject. It is easy to photograph Delhi’s famous landmarks, but I find more joy in the quiet lanes, the peeling paint of government houses, and the way the sun hits a slide in a local park. I believe every street corner has a mood. My process blends high-end gear like the Nikon Z8 for detail with the immediate, candid nature of my iPhone 16 Pro Max.
I edit these using my custom Lightroom presets, which help pull out the warmth in the city's light while adding a cinematic, moody undertone. This approach—finding the extraordinary in the ordinary—is exactly how I treat every project. If you are looking for a photographer who documents Delhi not just as a backdrop, but as a living, breathing character in your shoot, let’s talk. Whether it is an urban portrait session, a brand narrative, or a candid family story, I am ready to document your version of the city.
