Sometimes, the best shots are the ones you don’t plan for. I started at Trocadéro for a sunrise shot, but the clouds were too thick. On my way back, the clouds suddenly broke, and I noticed the sun streaks. I quickly grabbed my camera and took this handheld shot.

Naga Madhavapeddi

Having worked with Swami for over 7 years now, I can't come up with all the superlatives to describe how great it is to work with him. Thank you for your patience and professionalism. You have driven out far and wide for us and put up with two kids under five multiple times. You make everyone feel comfortable and helped capture some very precious moments of life for us. We love having you as our photographer.

Auoara Borealis in California

Auoara Borealis in California

Who would’ve thought you could see the Aurora in California? As soon as I heard it was possible, I grabbed a few friends, and we dashed to Livermore to capture this rare, once-in-a-blue-moon shot. SFGATE featured this image in their publication the next morning.

Many photographers focus on one genre, but I’ve always struggled with that. Portraits and landscapes are two different beasts—one is heavy on studio lighting, the other on natural light—and specializing in both is a disadvantage to me. My heart has always been in landscapes and nature, but the deep connection I feel when photographing people is something I can't ignore. So, you'll find my portfolio is a mixed bag of landscapes and people, reflecting both my passions.

Swami's photos are top notch, especially his shots of Katrina Kaif. Among all the photos from the six tours, his images of Katrina are the absolute best. The quality of his work is exceptional, making him easily one of the top photographers in the world.

Swami is much more than just a photographer—his work carries a touch of magic. As a concert organizer, I’ve witnessed his talent firsthand at numerous Bollywood events, where he consistently stood out among other photographers. With the love, passion, and dedication he brings to every shot, Swami’s images truly speak louder than words.
