About Aerial, Architectural & Landscape Photography
What Drives My Lens
Mumbai is home, but my camera roams way beyond. I chase moods, not just moments. If you want photos that show the organised chaos of a city from above, or the soft drama of a sunset, that’s what I do. I’m into finding stories in every frame - be it a buzzing highway or a quiet coastline.
My Main Styles
- Aerial shots with drones, catching the city in angles you don’t see every day
- Urban skyline aerial shots, especially places like Mumbai, Singapore, and city landmarks
- Long exposure night photography - those glowing traffic veins and moody city lights are my jam
- Timelapse architecture videos that show how a city breathes and changes
- Coastal landscape drone images from Goa beaches to Alibag’s shores
My Process
I shoot in all kinds of conditions - blazing sun, monsoon clouds, even late night. I don’t just click and send. Each image goes through pro editing to bring out its vibe. Sometimes, the weather messes with my plans, but I’ve learned to work with it or wait for the right scene.
Beyond the City
Not only streets and buildings - I’m drawn to open spaces and dramatic skies. Sunsets and sunrises are big for me. You might spot images from Indonesia or Vietnam in my portfolio too.
If you’re after visuals that tell a story, with a bit of Mumbai masala and a whole lot of atmosphere, that’s my thing.

My Story
Born and raised in Mumbai – yaar, this city never sleeps. I’m always chasing that shot above the chaos, finding beauty in monsoon storms, traffic blurs, or Diwali fireworks lighting up the skyline. But I’m not stuck here. From floating snack boats in Vietnam to the neon buzz in Singapore, I’m all about catching those real moments, wherever I go. My camera’s like my travel buddy, always looking for that perfect light.
My Work
What I Shoot - Aerial cityscape photography, sunsets, hyperlapse travel stories, long exposure, street scenes, concerts, cars, and more.
How I See It - I go for mood and movement—even when things stand still. Editing matters, but it’s the vibe that counts.
Where I Work - Mostly Mumbai, but I travel for projects. Shot in India and Southeast Asia. Always up for new places.
Getting the Shot - We chat about the feel you want, I chase it down. All images are copyrighted, just FYI.
