About Me
I am Navdeep Soni
I have been a software engineer for few years and then in 2011 I decided to be a wedding photographer full time. I am also founder of Growthpolis where we provide SEO consultancy to new age companies.
Candid wedding photographer is a word much abused by all and sundry. And while I do fit into the ‘profile’ of wedding photographer. But I like to see myself as an explorer experiencing weddings through my camera lenses looking for unique moments that go unnoticed.
The personality of a photographer is as important as his style of photography. It’s a part of the creative process.
I have to admit since 2011 wedding photography has nurtured a new love for traveling and experiencing new cultures. My imagery is an extension of my love for observing people and the moments that usually go unnoticed.
It could be the bride lost in her thoughts during getting the ready session, dad’s wet eyes hiding the emotions or groom’s favorite striped socks.

Personal Wedding Photographer
Yes, I am your personal wedding photographer. Wedding photography is an art and a difficult skill. I try to shoot in the purest form of candid photography.
I shoot a wedding without getting noticed.It really doesn’t matter if your wedding has a guest count of 200 or 2000. I am the personal wedding photographer of my couple and their families shooting all the events apart from weddings. My couples hire ( studio) photography teams who shoot the rest of the randomness of the wedding.

Don't hire me!
👉Yes, don’t hire me. I may not be a fit for your big day if your main criteria is a one-stop-shop for all your photography/video requirements.
Shooting weddings is an art form and a service. With digital photography, you don’t need be an artist to get good pictures. Any studio or photography company can provide that.
All my couples look for something more deeper and meaningful. They want memories they can cherish for years and not just shiny pictures.
👉 Don’t hire me if you don’t believe in something called creative process. A creative process is an amalgamation of experience we go through on the shoot day, personalities of our couples, their passion, our vision, and finally the editing. For eg: if you are not patient enough and expect pictures right after the shoot, don’t hire me:). Editing of Pictures is itself a journey and it takes time.
If you are a passionate couple in love with photography, looking to create some magical moments, HIRE ME!. It does not matter if it is a destination wedding or a small intimate wedding.
You can check wedding pictures of some passionate people like you who trusted our process.

My name is Navdeep Soni and I am a commercial photographer from Pune. I am used to seeing the things with my “left” eye closed. I, along with my team, are looking forward to shooting your story the way we did for them.
