What made you choose this path for your career?<\/h2>\n<p>Passion for photography came after I covered half way, initially I started photography just to learn how to interact with people because as I said I was an introvert which eventually led to big things but I wont lie, I was always an artist from my childhood.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Which photographers influenced you, and how did they influence your thinking and career path?<\/h2>\n<p>I was never a die hard fan of any photographer but I do follow work of <strong>Pye Jirsa, Atul kasbekar, said mhamad, Brandon woefel<\/strong>. From the start only I have an unique style but I do experiment still most of the time I stick to my style which separates me from other fellow photographers<\/p>\n<h2>3. Exactly what it is you want to say through your photographs, and how do you actually get your photographs to do that?<\/h2>\n<p>To be honest I never try to tell a story. I \u00a0just find a good location, good model, good concept and shoot. Its the people and their creativity who find a story in every picture from their own perspective but surely there is lots of creativity and hard work put on thinking the concept.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Among your works, which one is your fav<span class=\"text_exposed_show\">orite? Why?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>My favourite picture changes everyday&#8230;to be honest I am never satisfied with my work as I follow such amazing photographers so I have huge expectations from myself.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"text_exposed_show\"><br \/>\n5. What motivates you to continue taking pictures economically, politically, intellectually or emotionally?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The answer is simple passion, fame &amp; ofcourse Money. Almost everyone wants that so I am not guilty of anything<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><em>Also Read &#8221;\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.paisawapas.com\/student-stories\/jit-bhunia-musician-trap-happy-story-interview\/\">You Will Regret It If You Miss It.

So for me the biggest struggle was to make people believe that I am worth that trust.

But travelling with my crew, building memories from the first wedding we covered and around 100 weddings later also I still remember all the fun we had together in every wedding we covered. &#8220;We put our heart &amp; Soul in every wedding we cover&#8221; That&#8217;s how we work!!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"text_exposed_show\"><br \/>\n9. Anything you would like to say to other young aspiring photographers\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>I am also young though but yes for photographers who are just starting out, I have few suggestions for them. First and most important suggestion is that no matter how successful you get never forget your grounds, always be close to those people who supported you initially. Second, Never give up on your dreams no matter what anybody says just keep on working. Third, Love yourself!! Fourth, always be open to suggestions even a three year old can teach you lots of things.
