About Wedding & Event Photography
My Approach
I don't believe in perfect pictures. I look for beauty in the chaos and the real stuff happening around me. Whether it's the emotion in someone's eyes or the unpredictable moments at your shaadi (wedding), I turn those tiny imperfections into art. Kaaya ya Maaya? I try to find the truth somewhere in between.
Bridal Portraits
Bridal portraits are my jam. Each bride has a different vibe, so I mix it up - sometimes classic, sometimes dramatic, sometimes full-on glam. I love catching that look in her eye, that hint of nervous excitement or quiet confidence. These aren't just photos, they're stories.
The Real Moments
Your big day is full of drama - from the baaraat rolling in to the quiet tension during Sindoor Daan. I shoot in a documentary wedding photography style, so nothing feels fake or forced. I want the candid Indian wedding moments - the random laughs, the emotional hugs, the desi vibe that makes every wedding unique.
Pre-Wedding Shoots
Pre-wedding shoots are where we get creative. Could be by the ghats in Varanasi, or maybe somewhere more personal. I aim for an artistic pre-wedding shoot that feels true to you and your story.
Details Matter
I zoom in on the stuff most people miss - the mehendi, the lehenga texture, the groom's cufflinks, all those little things you spent hours picking out. Wedding day detail shots matter because they remind you what made your day yours.
Where I Work
Mostly you’ll find me in Patna, Mumbai, or Delhi. If your wedding is somewhere far off, I’m always up for a destination shoot. Just say the word.

My Story
Hey, I’m Shantanu. My bio says photographer, but I’m more of a storyteller, honestly. I chase imperfections, make them art. You’ll find me in Patna, Mumbai, Delhi, or wherever the story calls. Sometimes I’m just chilling with a street dog, other times I’m lost in Rajgir’s rain. I live for those fleeting moments - a butterfly, a quiet sky. For me, it’s not about perfection, it’s about the poetry in every frame.
My Work
Fashion, Weddings, Portraits & Creative Direction - I shoot fashion, lifestyle, weddings, events, and moody artistic portraits. I also handle creative direction for shoots.
Imperfections into Art - I’m not chasing perfect poses. I want real moods, authentic vibes, something raw and beautiful.
Documentary Bridal & Event Photography - Bridal portraits are my jam. I use a documentary style - capturing candid Sindoor Daan moments, baaraat energy, and quiet glances.
Fashion & Portraits with Character - Let’s experiment. Modern glam, vintage fashion photoshoot, desi vibes - it’s about bringing a feeling or story alive.
