ABOUT
The Full Story
My story begins in India where I grew up nomadically (owing to my fathers work). I have since lived in 3 countries and attended 10 different schools and have finally made my way to Beppu, Japan to pursue a bachelors degree in culture, society and media studies.
As a dedicated and passionate photographer, I’m constantly looking for new moments to capture on camera. Since beginning my photography journey, I’ve worked with several different models and locations which have expanded my experience and added to my portfolio. Take a moment to explore my work, and contact me with any questions.
