I have always been interested in photography since I started using my dad’s manual Topcon SLR camera at an early age. I studied computers at university and started working in graphic design studios. My passion and desire to produce creative images and design a story through the images pushed me to start shooting Asian weddings, lifestyle & portrait photography. I love the excitement and the build-up to a wedding with all the vibrancy, festivities, emotions, cultures and traditions that come with it. In wanting to offer a unique photography experience, I created my own eclectic style of shooting which involves a reportage characteristic, focusing on the moment that is about to unfold, the moment as it occurs, and the emotions involved in the moment after it transpires. Additionally, I love shooting detail, as easy as it sounds it is the extra creative thought that makes the difference between shooting in an orthodox fashion and shooting with an artistic eye. I am currently a member of the Society of Wedding & Portrait Photography (SWPP).

Outside photography, I am much inspired by Africa as I am born and raised in Tanzania. I love golf as it provides the focus and fitness one requires in the photography trade.

Completing my degree in Product Design sparked my natural ability to see the world through a creative lens; I felt a deep urge to make a meaningful impact within the Asian wedding industry, which was overly staged, losing the raw emotions and genuine moments that make each celebration unique.

This inspired me to create my own style—a fusion of photojournalism and wedding photography—capturing candid moments with a fresh, modern aesthetic while preserving the warmth and emotions that make them timeless.

My expertise in lighting allows me to craft images that are not just photos but works of art. With a personality fuelled by passion, enthusiasm, and charisma, I bring out the best in every bride, groom, and model I work with, making their experience as memorable as the photos themselves.

Over the last decade, Gurwinder and I have built East West Photography into a global brand, documenting love stories and events around the world. Along the way, I’ve pursued professional recognition for my craft through The Society of Wedding & Portrait Photographers (SWPP) and currently hold the LSWPP accreditation.

I come with a qualification in Textiles and Surface Art and have enjoyed wildlife photography in Kenya with my dad from an early age. After freelancing for some years I joined East West Photography. Balancing a career in investment banking and photography has been somewhat exciting to say the least, but shooting alongside Gurwinder and Jagdeep has definitely been a blessing in disguise. My passion for all things design has led me to spread my wings within different aspects of design some of which include cake baking, painting and dabbling in mini projects involving some graphic design work. 2013 was a remarkable year where together with my husband Harbs, we run the operations within East Africa.

As much as I would like to say I love golf, I would say I prefer having a part history as a hockey player!

Born and raised in Tanzania, it is only natural to be passionate about landscapes, nature and wildlife. Photography inspires me to capture my passion and give it life in a frame. Working with Nokia as a product specialist helped me discover my love for socialising with people from all walks of life. 2013 gave my wife Jaspreet and I the opportunity to set up the EWP East African wedding photographer branch with immeasurable support from the UK team.

Ever since we have been involved in not only Asian and African weddings but also undertaking corporate and commercial photography for hotels, lodges, wildlife trusts and wildlife.
