Akhil'S Photography

Akhil'S Photography is based at Edavilaveedu in Oachira. It’s a small operation run by people who just really like taking pictures. Our studio is quite modest, located in a spot that feels more like a home than a business. We have some backdrops and a few lights set up, but a lot of our work happens out in the world, at weddings or local festivals near the temple. We spend a lot of hours sitting in front of computer screens editing photos, which can be a bit tiring for the eyes, but seeing the final prints makes it worth it. We don't have a huge team or a fancy office in the city center. It is just us and our cameras. Sometimes the weather doesn't cooperate for a shoot, or a memory card acts up, but we’ve learned to deal with those little disasters over the years. We aren't looking for awards or fame; we just like capturing moments for families in the neighborhood. Our shelves are filled with old cameras and photo albums from years ago. People usually come to us because they saw our work at a cousin’s wedding or a friend’s birthday party. We keep our prices fair and our attitude simple. It’s a busy life, especially during the wedding season, but we wouldn't want to be doing anything else. It's just a local guy with a camera and a bit of patience.
