Our best pre-wedding moments and cinematic love stories
A glimpse into 11 years of capturing raw emotions, from Mumbai city streets to quiet escapes. These are some of my favorite chapters from the love stories I have had the honor to document.
This is what a high-fashion, editorial shoot looks like against the stunning backdrop of Mumbai's CST station at night. We can create these cinematic moments for you.
A surprise proposal on a Goa beach. I focus on capturing the raw emotion of the moment, from the nervous excitement to the overwhelming joy. This is a memory they'll cherish forever.
Finding a moment of calm and connection in the beautiful chaos of Dadar's flower market. This is what I mean by capturing real, unposed love in the heart of Mumbai.
Throwing it back with some old-school love. We used the classic architecture of South Mumbai to create a timeless, vintage pre-wedding film that feels like a scene from a 90s movie.
A breathtaking cliffside view in Goa. For couples who want an adventurous destination shoot, I know the perfect spots to make your pre-wedding photos truly epic.
Sometimes, all you need is an open field and each other. This shoot near Karjat was all about simplicity, capturing the quiet, comfortable love between the couple in a beautiful natural setting.
Your hobbies are part of your story. This couple loved pickleball, so we made it the theme of their fun and unique save-the-date announcement. Let's get creative together.
About this collection
When you look through these, notice that there is no stiff posing—just real laughs and genuine connection. Whether we are shooting in the middle of Dadar flower market or on a quiet beach in Goa, my goal is to make you forget the camera is there. If you want photos that actually look like you, rather than a Pinterest board you cannot relate to, let’s talk.
I started this journey 11 years ago, and after 700+ shoots, I am still chasing the same thing: moments that are not planned. You know, the ones that happen naturally while you are busy being yourselves.
My Approach
My work spans everything from high-fashion editorial looks at CST station to cozy, simple moments in a field near Karjat. My favorite shoots are the ones where we build a theme around who you are as a couple—like that pickleball-themed date or the vintage 90s Mumbai shoot we pulled off. I don't believe in forcing poses; I believe in creating a comfortable space where your personality comes out.
Logistics & Gear
I handle the locations, the pacing, and the vibe. Whether you need a 3-minute cinematic film with your own voiceovers or just a solid set of candid portraits to save the date, I bring a small, agile team. We use 4K cameras, gimbals, and drones where allowed, but the tech is just there to help me capture the feeling, not to stage it.
Mumbai & Beyond
I know the spots that aren't crowded—the quiet corners of Marine Drive, the morning light at Horniman Circle. If you have an idea, let me know, and we can make it real. I travel across India for destination shoots, so if you have a specific place in mind, I am ready to pack my bags.
