About Me

Vivann is profoundly dedicated to using natural light for portraits, as it provides the most genuine and flattering illumination. The interaction between natural light and textures adds depth and enhances the subject, resulting in vivid and compelling images. He favors natural light over artificial sources for its unmatched ambiance.

A fine arts graduate from Chitra Kala Parishad in Bangalore, Vivann’s artistic journey began with his ground breaking “Drawings Through Fire” technique, capturing high-speed light patterns created by a moving candle in a dark room. His passion for low-light photography led to visually stunning images that push conventional boundaries.

For over 18 years, Vivann has excelled as an Advertising Photographer and Art Director. He began his career in fashion photography for a magazine before transitioning into advertising, where he has collaborated with esteemed clients such as Brigade Group, Britannia, Bosch, Gardens, and Embassy. Vivann is known for pioneering a dynamic, cinematic style that captures and conveys stories within a single frame—whether hinting at a concept or showcasing multiple aspects in a series. His profound understanding of photography and limitless creativity enable him to work in layers, providing diverse dimensions and perspectives in his images.

Vivann’s distinctive style captures each image with originality and depth, consistently reflecting his artistic vision and preference for natural light, setting him apart from trends. His work has been widely exhibited, both nationally and internationally, including a prominent architecture showcase at Contemporary Venice, Palazzo Bembo in Venice, Italy, in October 2022. He has also received multiple international awards, recognizing his exceptional contributions to photography.
