Forget stiff poses. Just natural light, real expressions, and some of my favorite corners of Delhi.

A moody portrait taken on a dark staircase. I love using shadows and ambient light to create a sense of atmosphere and focus on the subject's expression.

This is a landscape-oriented portrait, which gives a different, more cinematic feel. The subject's dynamic pose and the moody color grade make this shot stand out.

A strong portrait taken against the setting sun. The golden hour light creates a beautiful flare and warm tones, highlighting the subject's silhouette and features.

A peaceful scene from Sunder Nursery, with a person on a wheelchair enjoying the autumn colors. This photo is about finding tranquility and beauty in everyday moments.

About Additional Portraits & Scenes

I shoot exclusively with a Sony A6100 and Sigma prime lenses, which means we work entirely with natural light. I do not use strobes or artificial lighting, so we will plan your session around the golden hour or daylight hours at spots like Sunder Nursery or Humayun's Tomb for that specific moody background blur.

I am Nikhil. Just a regular guy juggling MBA classes and a camera. I do not chase perfect shots; I chase the real ones—the candid laughs, the quiet moments, and the vibe of Delhi.
