Hello, I’m Mahesh Shantaram!

For event photography clients
Well-known for my pioneering work in the field of candid Indian wedding photography, I strongly believe that world-class wedding photojournalism is for all — rich dad, poor dad, single mom; tamil ho ya punjabi; palace wedding or village gathering; a discreet Lutyens do or that VVIP whole-town-is-invited jamboree at a football-field-turned-venue; convention centre party hall or a very unconventional destination wedding in the middle of a desert. Been there, done that.

And most importantly, none of that will get in the way of me making honest pictures that will tell the story of your life’s new beginning with all the subtle yet powerful drama intact. As a solo photographer, I can work in fly-on-the-wall mode alongside your chosen photo-video army, to deliver the story of your family, your society, your culture and traditions woven through fine and fleeting moments for you to cherish forever. If you believe there’s a project that we can enjoy working on together…

For commissioning editors
It’s a large country. 1.4 billion people, no kidding. If you’re looking for a photographer who knows the lay of the land, to take the pulse of the people, and translate that into exciting visuals…

Tell me, what can I
do for you today
