There are moments in life when you feel a profound connection to the world around you, like walking on clouds and suddenly stumbling upon a breathtaking view. That's exactly what happened to me, and in that moment, I found solace and purpose with my camera. Capturing the myriad emotions within the tiny frame of my camera, and the thrill of the chase, ignited a passion within me that I knew was my true calling. Starting with everyday objects and candid images of people, my love for photography and videography grew alongside my undergraduate degree in Visual Communication. My postgraduate studies in Professional Photography under the guidance of Mr. Iqbal K Mohammed, a renowned photographer, further deepened my passion. While filmmaking had always fascinated me, I took a leap of faith and pursued it after gaining experience in freelancing and running my own photography business. I had the privilege of assisting renowned cinematographers, Nirav Shah and P.S. Vinod, working on numerous feature films and ad films as an assistant, associate cinematographer and second camera operator. I've collaborated with diverse teams from around the world and have developed a reputation for my teaching abilities. As a freelance DOP & photographer, I've dedicated my life to observing the world and sharing my knowledge through teaching. I've taught both subjects on online platform called Level Up Learning, and when I'm not behind the camera, I'm exploring the world of filmmaking. My work is driven by a constant search for the perfect light, the right moment, and the emotions that connect us all. I believe that photography and cinematography are more than just technical skills; they're tools to understand the human mind and the essence of life. Inspired by nature, I consider myself a part of the world I capture. My camera is a storyteller, helping me uncover the hidden narratives and beauty that surround us. Key Projects (As DOP): - Documentary - Nayantara: Beyond The Fairy Tale (Netflix Originals) - Music videos - Coke Studio Season 02 - Tamil - Feature Film - Vrittham (Malayalam) - Several commercials, documentaries & corporate films. Feature Films (As Associate DOP/Assistant DOP/Camera Operator): - Enthiran 2.0 3D - Diya - Lakshmi - Super Deluxe - Vakeel Saab - Sita Ramam - Attack
