Sprinkled Words

Never hold back Never restrain Never be afraid, to make impulsive decisions Never be afraid of 'A Happily ever after' moment It's never to late, let go of your heart See what it finds Hold it, cherish it, love it Like balloons, that fly with the wind, one must let the heart do the same You never know what you might just find in the most unexpected place. Don't be afraid to accept the love that the heart has found. there's generally nothing called 'it's too soon' If it happens, it's because it's meant to happen. Don't be afraid to love and enjoy and bloom In the world of technology and cheating, real love still does exist, you just need to find the right one and go ahead with it. This feeling of love, makes you feel so confident, beautiful and makes you believe that you can do things and follow your heart. Go find that love that makes you believe that the world is still a good place and that beautiful people still exist. Go fi

Hello there everyone, So last time I spoke about finding your sparkle. This is similar, but the other side that one generally forgets to keep in mind Sometimes things just don't work out because it's not destined to be. In the process of trying to make it work,don't lose yourself and stop being who you really are. Accept the phase and accept the real you and make the most of it. Now its time to find that light that never goes out. Find passion and happiness in other things to do. Find new dreams and wake up and chase them. Just because you lose one doesn't mean that's the end of it. When one door closes, two others open up. Go in search of the open doors and make the most of it For all you know there might be another hidden passion inside of you that never came as prominently as the other is only because you didn't realize it was there. Be open to things and interests and for all you know you could be doing two things rather than just one. that way it wo

Hello here to all my beautiful readers I've been meaning to write this for a long time, but getting the perfect photograph took a little while So not everything in life is always as great as you imagined it or want it to be. But I guess everyone knows by now that happiness and confidence is the key to not just looking good but also leading a beautiful  life. So generally we go into this darkness or dark zone around us when things aren't the way we want them to be. But the deal is that we never understand that fighting the darkness is not the ideal method to deal with it. Embracing it is. One needs to embrace the darkness around, accept it and find the sparkle in the darkness. There's a light that never goes out. Find that light and make it the guiding light. The faster you accept it the more beautiful your journey of making the darkness into light turns out to be. Everyone finds their moments of little happiness in various things. Go find yours and make that the spark

Hello there to all my beautiful readers. Sorry for keeping such a long gap between the two posts. College and trying to graduate with good grades has kind off kept me pretty busy. Good sleep, time for myself just seems like things I can crave for and not really get. Well, I'm sure you're wondering how does this sound relevant to the title of this blog? well, let me walk you through it. So last year of college and everyone around is trying so hard to stay focused on good grades but also the pressure of doing well work wise is eating everyone up. All realize that there is only one top to a pyramid and you have to go through the journey alone irrespective of how many people you have around you as support. You think the story of any college student in the last year is different? well, I don't particularly think so. Its just that we all help everyone but always aim at being at the top. This is when you crave for some alone time and push yourself to do your best. Friendshi

So well college takes up most of my time! And all I want to come back home and do is catch up on some sleep. This growing up business I tell you, ain't easy. Taking up English Literature as my major subject in my last year, is probably one of the best decisions I have made so far. Reading and getting lost in the world of imagination, coming up with your own theories for various reasons etc. it's all just so wonderful. I like being this occupied with books and taking a break from work for a while, because let's face it, everyone needs to be a graduate with good scores. So well what must one ideally do when one takes a break? I think you will be able to figure it out yourself at the end of this blog, once I take you through my journey. Find that one person who has similar interests as you do and just go on a date. I had my perfect friend to accompany me to a hood cup of coffee at Juhu, where we just sat and enjoyed talking to each other about everything except studies. W

My first blog not about photography, but this one is specially written for the photograph attached down. Mumbai is a city, Bombay is an emotion. Bombay, the city that never sleeps is infectious. Once you live here, work here and settle here you would never want to leave.  More dreams are realized and lived in Mumbai than any other city in India. This city has its own charm and beauty in the way it is. Supporting hundreds of people everyday, this city never lets you down, even if it does, it makes you smile come what may. The summers make people want to get out of the city and escape to cooler places. But that's when this city gives you the joys of enjoying the king of the fruits, the mango. Everyone waits for the first rains that cool the city down. The pleasures of getting wet in the first rains are indescribable. Once the city cools down the beauty is something very different. The cool sea breeze with a cup of cutting chai is something everyone craves for. This city makes a

Shooting for a salon, with my college friends sure made the process easy and fun. Salon, Le femme, Borivali. Highlights here were to show the different types of make-up and hair and jewelry. None of them are models. And no light sources used apart from natural light. It was wonderfully challenging and a great experience to work with friends. It was one long tiring day but extremely happy it happened and these are a few shots that I really like. Look 1;Indo western look. A nehru kurta with a more western hairstyle with beautiful chand bali earrings.   Look 2; Bridal shoot. Beautiful golden lehenga and wedding jewelry.  Look 3; Jewelry shoot. Rihanna hairstyle and Indian jewelry.  Look 4; Western look. A blue dress with blue hair extentions and make up

Weddings can be so chaotic and crazy and so tiring. But the good thing is I get to step aside from all this chaos and just watch it and shoot the funny moments of the chaos. The joy is completely different when you start connecting to the bride and the groom you've barely known for weeks and you realize how to get the best out of them. Most Indian weddings don't just mean the bride and groom getting married, but its the families that marry. The joys and tears and stealing of shoes are always fun to watch and shoot. The people who attend the wedding as guests, get to see the wonderful story of the bride and groom. In fact everyone gets to see their story on their wedding but them. Hours to get ready for the D-day, months of preparations for the wedding that the bride and groom eventually tend to loose the joys of their own marriage. My aim as a photographer will always be to try and get back that joy in my little own ways to make them laugh and try to get them close to each

Shooting a baby sure is not easy. Getting them to smile, play with you and just not get cranky. This little wonderful thing just made my process so easy by smiling and playing with me that I just didn't want to end the session with her. Aisha Kotwal, my youngest and most beautiful model made my first baby shoot a huge success. This cutie just manages to make everyone go "aww, how cute." She knew exactly when to look at the camera and when not to. This little one kept my camera in her lap and pressed all the buttons and enjoyed seeing her own photographs. Won't be surprised to see her grow into this beautiful model some day. It's absolutely wonderful to watch something this beautiful grow up, Can't wait to take more pictures of this little one. Here are a few.                                                                                                   And the mother daughter bonding time 

Sephi Begerson, Christophe Viseux and Andrew Adams . A journey that began with a million thoughts of if I would be able to do it, a mysterious phone call to Sephi and sounded like a complete idiot. A mind boggling workshop conducted by them sure had a made a difference in the person I am today. First thought as I entered the place was  if I was in the right place, because everyone was older than me, very well established in their fields and so confident already, made me wonder why they were along with me. I was mentally prepared to be grilled into the session but the minute Sephi began to talk, I was taken aback and in my head I went "OH WOW!!!" I was so happy that I made it to this workshop. He spoke about everything that was actually in my head I would wonder how to tackle the issue. The highlight of the workshop was tell us who we are and what we actually love to do   to explore our shooting style  to be open to appreciation and talent.  We got one day each with
