Wedding Special
F
or Amar it all started as a hobby
and he quickly realised that he felt
most comfortable, relaxed, and
happy when he was holding my camera
and contemplating my next shot. “It was
like being an athlete in the zone.” His
passion lead him to take a leap, leave his
secure job as a business consultant in
the US, and return home to India to follow
his passion and dream. He was initially
very apprehensive about shooting Indian
weddings. Amar was fearful, as he
perceived that Indian weddings would
be chaotic. But all that changed from the
moment he shot his first wedding, and
after that he has wanted to do nothing
but wedding photography.
Amar says he was travelling and
exploring things, and even before
he could choose anything, wedding
photography chose him. He embraced
the chaos and fell in love with it. “Imagine
two different individuals, born at different
places and time, bonded by destiny to
come together. On the big day, I get to
see the precious moments up close than
anyone else. It’s a gifted feeling to be
chosen and to be there for them.”
