Hi, It’s me… Santosh Sharma, an independent candid wedding photographer, creative head, as well as the person behind all the madness at Santushti Photography. I was born in Bihar, brought up in Assam, and work from Bangalore, India; but happy to travel anywhere. With an upbringing of a self-taught photographer, I professionally deal in projects involving people and various events related to them (weddings, kids, family, corporate, and lifestyle projects being some of them).

I strive to bring out the “image” behind a photo in more of a candid, photo-journalistic, and documentary way; by being as little obtrusive as possible. My images are photographed and processed in a way that they are not just a bunch of good-looking images, but images that make you relate to them very personally, bringing out the story surrounding it.

Apart from my technical expertise and instinctive experience, you meet a person with an open-minded and accommodative approach, irrespective of what age group, gender, region, religion, or class you belong to. I do not follow typical gimmicky marketing tactics, but more than anything else, I aim to make the experience the best possible for the person on the other side.
