About Food & Product Photography
Why I Do This
For me, every plate of food or product has its own kahani (story). I don’t just click photos, I try to bring out the real vibe - nothing stiff or fake, just shots that make you want to grab that samosa or check out that new bottle.
How I Work
Light is everything. Sometimes I go for that dark and moody food photography look, with deep shadows and a bit of drama. Other times, I keep it bright and clean, especially if you want your food or product to look super fresh and inviting. I mix things up based on what suits your story best.
Props? Arre, I’m obsessed. I’m always hunting for quirky stuff at Juna Bazaar or making my own hand-painted photography backdrops. If I can’t find the right thing, I’ll just build it. That’s how I keep every shoot bilkul unique.
What I Shoot
- Restaurant menu photoshoot - making food look as tasty as it smells
- Creative product styling for brands, from raw seafood to sneakers
- Conceptual shoots where we build a whole mood from scratch
I like getting into the details, figuring out what works for your brand, and keeping things real. If you want photos that actually tell your story, let’s chat.

My Story
Hey, I’m the one behind the camera, chasing those wild, real moments - like aunties crying and baraat madness squeezing through gallis (lanes). Started with still photos, got lost in cinematic wedding films after 2019, made mistakes, but couples stuck with me. Pune-Mumbai is home turf, Nikon forever. Families feed me tambram food and open up their hearts. Now, I’m playing with food shoots and eco-home interiors too. Staged smiles? Not my thing.
My Work
What I shoot - Candid Maharashtrian wedding photography, food, interiors, portraits, products, and sometimes cinematic films.
How I shoot - No fake posing, just honest moments - haldi chaos, real tears, real laughs, the madness.
Who clicks with me - Couples who want natural portrait sessions, not Insta-perfect drama. Families who love sharing real stories.
What to expect - Full day coverage, quick edits, and patience. I blend in, eat with you, and capture the real thing.
