Photography is an expression of how I observe, interpret and connect with the world around me. Various themes deriving themselves from life experiences find their way into my work: migration, the idea of home, urbanism, faith.
Prior to a full-time photography practice, I worked in the corporate sector for some of the largest tech/telecom brands around.
With a focus on documentary photography, I have had the opportunity to work across varied disciplines, both as personal and commissioned projects. Working with words and building a narrative has been key to any personal projects I engage with.
Projects for which I get commissioned revolve around these themes: Architecture/Interiors, Food, Social/Humanitarian. I’ve been fortunate to work for some of the largest design & architectural studios and developers, F&B brands along with NGOs and development agencies doing notable work on social causes.
My Instagram account is a journal of my everyday, blending my love for travel and everyday encounters on the street. It has been mentioned by various publications as one of the best accounts to follow from India.
