Poet of the Black

I have a tendency to shy away from shooting indian garments because everyone is stuck shooting them always in the same way, same style and no one really wants to change. . Since @aaboron_ handed over the entire creative direction to me, I tried to blend in a little bit of the general style with my aesthetics. Something that wouldn’t have been possible without @itsrosidas presence in the frame, she just radiates this aura through the entire frame. - Model: @itsrosidas // Make-Up: @subhambhattacharyya // Garment: @aaboron_ // Photographer: @poetoftheblack // . #indiaphotoproject #portraitmood #quietthechaos #featuremeofh #theportraitpr0ject #PostMyPicSticks #PostThePeople #nyc #ftwotw #seekingthestars #hypebeast #featurepalette #fashionaddict #illegalvisuals #folkcreative #illgrammers #way2ill #portraitcentral #theimaged #pentax #mediumformat #india #delhi #makeup #styling #culturekarkhana #blueskinblueprint #creativeimagemagazine #squaremag #homegrown (at Kolkata)

Kolkata brings out a very different side of me creatively. I worked with this amazing new saree brand while there, quite meticulously curated and homely.

Playing with sarees as drapes is something I completely love. It’s such a beautiful type of garment to play with. - Make-Up: @subhambhattacharyya // Hair: @hairlamode_annettelepcha // Model: Sherin // Photographer: @poetoftheblack // - #MISTAKEmag #postmystickpics #postthepeople #nextdoormodel #yafmagazine #cheadsmagazine #skynmagazine #pepumn #simplybadmag #hotisthenewblack #behangover #humanedge #ftwotww #arsenic #yumemag #seekingthestars #instagram #homegrown #india #delhi #pentax (at New Delhi)

Make-Up is not always about looking beautiful, it is also about baring your sould through the art. - Make-Up: @subhambhattacharyya // Model: @thatbohogirl__ // Hair: @hairlamode_annettelepcha // Photographer: @poetoftheblack // - #portraits #portrait #portraits_ig #pixel_ig #portraiture #expofilm3k #portrait_perfection #portraitstyles_gf #snowisblack #portraits_universe #featurepalette #bleachmyfilm #portraitmood #featurepalette #rsa_portraits #makeportraits #profile_vision #top_portraits #life_portraits #postthepeople #quietthechaos #2instagood #way2ill #justgoshoot #artofvisuals #l0tsabraids #ftwotw #igPodium_portraits #ftmedd (at New Delhi)

Been shooting a lot more video as was my plan for 2018. It feels good to stick to goals, specially when it comes to exploring a new media or platform. This is just experimentation. Find this on IGTV as well. - Photography/Concept: @poetoftheblack // Model: @mo.artan // Make-Up: @subhambhattacharyya // Music: @dyallas // - #video #abstract #motion #premierepro #adobe #creative #adobelabs #newdelhi #india #makeup #flower #film #art (at New Delhi)

A wonderful initiative by @panasonic4kimagingclub on Father’s Day. I got to talk about my Dad who was the first Photographer in my life and an inspiration for all that I do. - #fathersday #panasonic #lumix #gh5 #camera #photography #video #life #emotion #photographer #video #newdelhi #india (at New Delhi)

And if I can, I would light up storms, and see the world unravel, as water and fire finish each other off. - This post has been pending for a while, I was off on a work vacation(work-cation?) and I didn’t have my storage with me. So I couldn’t edit and I couldn’t post. But i am back in town now and I am looking to make some insane work with you people. So hit me up on DM if you have projects, ideas or thoughts in mind. Or even if you just want to tall. - Model: @xen.aerat // Make-Up: @subhambhattacharyya // Photographer: @poetoftheblack // - #boudoirphotography #boudoirphotographer #boudoirshoot #boudoirinspiration #boudoirphotos #beautyandboudoir #boudoir #implied #impliedmagazine #uncoverme #uncoveredmagazine #nakidmag #forguysmag #fusemagazineonline #sensual_ladies #sensualdays #great_captures_sensual #igf_sensual2 #sensual_guru #ig_sensual_art #glamourshots #modelsofinstagram #glamourshot #glamourmodel #delhi #india #girl #postmoreportraits #postthepeople (at New Delhi)

It’s getting tough to keep track of what I shoot. Does anybody have some workflow hacks for me? I hate finding new work that I never put out months and months later. I need to solve this problem.
