About Sacred Vows & Rituals

Rituals are fluid and unpredictable, and that is exactly where the magic lives. I do not use heavy lighting setups that distract from the ceremony; I use unobtrusive gear and silent shooting techniques to ensure the sanctity of your pheras or nikaah remains untouched while I capture every fleeting, honest moment.

I am Sagar. My job is not to direct a movie, it is to step into your world and record the moments you will actually want to remember in twenty years. When I document your rituals, I am simply looking for the real, messy, beautiful truth of your commitment to each other.
