About Cultural & Festival Photography & Videography
Capturing festivals isn’t just about clicking photos for me. It’s about feeling every moment, every prayer, and every burst of emotion. I travel across India, chasing those moments that make you say, “Ye meri life ka ab tak ka sabse best shot hone wala hai!” (This is going to be the best shot of my life so far).
What I Shoot
- Holi in Braj: I use my drone to catch the wild, divine chaos from above. It’s not just colours - it’s pure togetherness.
- Ganesh Chaturthi in Maharashtra: From idol making in Parel to the sea farewell during Visarjan, I cover it all. Bittersweet, energetic, and always emotional.
- Durga Puja in Delhi NCR: CR Park, Indirapuram - I focus on Maa Durga’s presence, the small details, and the rituals like Dhunuchi dance. Sometimes, I create teaser reels that set the mood.
- Ravan Dahan and other festivals: I love aerial views for big events like Dussehra in Noida. Also, Maha Shivaratri, Diwali, and more.
Beyond Big Celebrations
- Ganga Aarti documentary: Whether at Varanasi, Rishikesh, or Haridwar, I capture the healing power of these ceremonies.
- Manikarnika Ghat stories: I’m always respectful, never intrusive. It’s about faith, not personal grief.
How I Work
- Cinematic coverage: High-quality 4K, slow-motion, soulful music. I want you to feel present.
- Drone shots of Holi and other festivals for a unique perspective.
- My gear: Sony ZV-E1, Tamron lens, DJI Mini 3 Pro drone. I pick what works for every situation.
Sometimes, it’s not just about the photo - it’s about capturing faith, destiny, and the soul of the festival.

My Story
I’m Bean Singh. Never did the degree thing – learnt everything with a camera in my hand, wandering Delhi’s chaos and history. My heart? That’s somewhere in the mountains, Spiti especially. When the city noise gets too much, I disappear there. Banaras, Kashi – shooting faith and life there, that’s real learning. No school, just the street and silence. That’s me, always chasing the next story.
My Work
Cinematic travel photos, films & drone shots - I shoot epic travel moments, from Himalayas to city festivals, always chasing emotion and story.
Golden Hour Madness & dramatic landscapes - My style’s big on light, colour, and those goosebump landscapes you remember forever.
Hands-on, all-in approach - I’ll hike, swim, whatever it takes. Sony gear, DJI drones, nothing’s too wild for the perfect shot.
Collab with passionate storytellers - Love working with folks who want raw, unfiltered India. Let’s make something real.
