Me
Hear it from them, before you hear it from me.
I am Ramkumar Ramachandran, I chose not to engineer anything in my life so I became a photographer. In fact, I think I intended that pun more than I ever intended to become a photographer.
It's been 13 years now since my career as a wedding photographer began and over these 13 years I have had the opportunity to shoot about 350+ Weddings all across India, mostly in the South, and a couple of them across the shores of India. Candid is the word I loathe the most in the world but I have learned to live with it.
I document weddings as I see them and just prefer to call myself a wedding photographer. I shoot weddings with only one thing on my mind, to show the emotions of the people in my photographs as honestly as possible and the challenge I give myself at every wedding is to do that in an aesthetically pleasing way.
I believe wedding photographers have the responsibility of telling a story that is to be seen and felt by the generations to come and with each wedding having a story of its own, a good wedding photographer should have the ability to piece it all together at every single wedding he or she has the privilege of documenting.
I live in Chennai and moan about the city and its limitations over filter coffee on an everyday basis but I love it here and may never move away. I love being around people and hanging out with friends but at the same time, I love some “me-time” as well. I absolutely love travelling but I have never been on a solo trip ever in my life! (Please hire me as a single photographer for your intimate destination wedding)
I am currently cringing at the number of 'I's I have written on this page. So that's about me for you.
