Saurabh Chikhale Photography

Saurabh Chikhale Photography is basically just me and a small space near the NCC Ground on SB Road. I chose this spot because it's easy for people to find, especially since everyone knows the ground. Most mornings, I'm checking my lenses or cleaning the sensors because the dust around here can be a real pain. I didn't start with much, just one camera and a lot of time spent walking around the city. Now, people come by the studio for all sorts of things, maybe a quick photo for a document or something more involved like a family shoot. The light in the afternoons near the ground is actually quite nice, so I often step out to catch that. It’s not a big corporate studio with twenty people working; it’s just a practical workspace where I keep my gear and meet folks who need photos. Sometimes the traffic on SB Road makes it hard for people to park, so I tell them to just pull up near the gate. I spend a lot of time sitting at the computer editing, which can be a bit boring, but that's part of the job. I don't use any fancy scripts when I talk to people, I just tell them what I can do and how much it’ll cost. It’s a simple way to run a business, and it keeps things honest between me and the people who walk in.
