Our Story
I'm Raj Sarma, a Wedding & Lifestyle photographer with a passion for travel, music, coffee & beer. Born and raised in Bombay, photography has been my passion for over a decade.
Over the years I’ve had the good fortune of being published numerous times, winning a few awards and having several exhibitions of my photography in New York and Philadelphia. All these years I had been pursuing photography semi-professionally, it was something I did in addition to pursuing a “real” career. However, the year 2016 brought a turning point in my life and urged me to make some tough decisions. Having worked in technology throughout my professional life, I realised I’d turned into a hamster on a wheel. I did the same things each and everyday never stopping once to think, why am I doing this? Does this make me happy? Am I bringing any change into this world? I also realised that I only truly felt alive when I was with my camera, taking photos and telling stories. It was time for me to make a change. So I made the insane and scary decision to give up the safety blanket of a corporate life and become a full time creative professional. Many thought it was bold, others thought it was crazy! My dad thought it’s a phase and it’ll pass (I think he’s still waiting 😉).
My work compasses a broad range of subjects and don't belong to a single genre/niche. However, if I were to categorise what I do, I believe it is to create visually compelling stories. This is why I naturally lean towards Wedding, Travel & Documentary as stories form the central component of all these genres of photography. As children we were taught, “A photographs speaks a thousand words”, I grew up truly believing this lesson. As a photographer my goal is ambitious, yet simple and that is to tell your stories in their most vivid form through my photographs. Thanks for taking the time to visit my page, I look forward to hearing from you.
