About Collection
As a street photographer, I always look for the actions which are impromptu and unique that makes a moment unforgettable, simultaneously freezing those magical moments make me believe that I am alive and living every moment of my life.
Photography has become an essential part of my life. Every photograph I have shared here may works as a symbol of my philosophical journey where every moment is very special. I always try to shoot with a fresh mind and try to avoid preconceived ideas which proved to be fatal sometimes. These photographs portray how I try to see the world. It’s my reaction to a particular moment and Later, when I see those photograph, it works as time machine. Every photograph is a documentation of personal moments between me and my subject. It’s like an emotional bonding that is going to last forever.
