I am a freelance photographer since 2000, residing in Kochi with my family. Being the younger son of a gifted professional drama artist, right from childhood I discerned art as my final destination and remained instinctively passionate about it. In the early years, my interest was focused on pencil drawing, turning out mostly light and shade images. I always like to mix the flash with ambient light in outdoor photography, and my skills in imaging post-production help me finesse colour, saturation, and grain. I am on a steady journey to greater competence and I wish to excel and stay ahead in the dynamic work environment of photography.
