One of the best gigs I’ve done was the **CX Global Summit 2024** at Media Rotana Hotel, Dubai. It was a powerful mix of corporate energy, global speakers, and vibrant interactions—perfect for storytelling through photography and videography.

As for the best venue, **Atlantis, The Palm** stands out. Capturing a luxury wedding there was an unforgettable experience—the architecture, lighting, and grandeur made every frame look cinematic.

Each project teaches something new, but these events truly left a lasting impression.

My favorite type of event to cover is corporate conferences and summits. I enjoy capturing the energy of keynote speakers, networking moments, and the branding details that define an organization’s identity.

That said, weddings also have a special place—they’re full of emotion, elegance, and timeless memories. Each event has its own story, and I love bringing that to life through the lens.

I started my journey over 20 years ago in broadcast media, working behind the camera for TV and corporate productions. That foundation gave me strong technical skills and an eye for storytelling.

As my passion for photography and videography grew, I began taking on freelance gigs for corporate events, weddings, and exhibitions in Mumbai and Dubai. Positive client feedback and referrals helped me build a strong portfolio, and soon I was working with major brands, PR agencies, and venues like Dubai World Trade Centre and Atlantis, The Palm.

Every project since has been a step forward in refining my craft and delivering professional, story-driven visuals.

I’ve been most influenced by visual artists and filmmakers who master storytelling through emotion and light—like Steve McCurry for his ability to capture raw human moments and Christopher Nolan for cinematic depth and composition.

When it comes to music, my favorite artist is A.R. Rahman—his ability to blend emotion, rhythm, and culture into timeless music is unmatched.

As for the greatest song of all time, I’d say “Bohemian Rhapsody” by Queen. It’s bold, creative, and still feels fresh decades later—a true masterpiece that breaks every rule yet connects with everyone.

Typical Setup & Performance Times:

Setup Time: 60–90 minutes before the event (depending on venue size and equipment needs)

Coverage/Performance Time: Based on your event schedule—can range from a few hours to full-day coverage

Pack-down: 30–45 minutes after the event or last scheduled segment

We always arrive early to ensure a smooth setup and coordinate with your team for seamless coverage.

Yes, absolutely! I'm happy to shoot and perform outdoor photography and videography.

Whether it’s a beach wedding, desert shoot, garden ceremony, or outdoor corporate event, I come fully prepared with the right gear to handle natural light, weather conditions, and open spaces—ensuring high-quality results in any environment.

We focus exclusively on photography and videography, so we don’t handle music or playlists directly. However, if you’re working with a DJ or music team, we’re happy to coordinate with them to ensure the event flows smoothly.

Previous clients most commonly describe our work as professional, reliable, and creative. They appreciate our ability to capture authentic moments with an elegant and modern style, along with our smooth coordination that makes the event coverage seamless and stress-free.

Many mention our quick turnaround times and the high quality of the final photos and videos, which truly bring their events to life.
