    We want to share our experience of working with

    Tapan Parikh and Shooting Lives team for our wedding.

    We were referred to Tapan by one of our family friends and he has done numerous weddings for our relatives.

    His photography comes as highly recommended from everyone that we spoke to.

    Once we contacted Tapan, he walked through the entire process as well pricing.

    We looked at his past work and were truly impressed to sign him on for our entire wedding shoots.

    During the entire wedding celebrations, he took great pictures and paid attention to all the details.

    One of the crucial steps in dealing with photographers is getting the prints as the photgraphers can take extensive time for edits.

    However, Tapan and his team were quick and we received our albums few weeks after the wedding.

    Tapan and the entire Shooting Lives team is very talented, organized and most importantly fun to work with.

    We will certainly recommend them to our friends and family.

    Best wishes,

    Love

    Hansal & Jayna Sheth

    Tapan
    Thank you so much for everything you did for us at our wedding.
    You and your team were an indispensable source of knowledge
    on the day of wedding and events leading up to the wedding,
    In addition to providing us with amazing photos.
    Photography isn't something we would have prioritized
    had we been left to our own devices,
    but now we see what a mistake that would have been.
    Your photos are so beyond expectations.
    I love that you don't just take pictures, you capture moments.
    You are so incredibly talented and we were so lucky to have you!
    Your photos are STUNNING ! Thank you so, so much.

    We can't thank you enough for sharing your craft with us.

    Both my families had decided to keep just one common photographer for the wedding which was already finalised.
    There was just this one function from my side for which I had gone to meet Tapan with my parents.
    The moment we saw his work we realised we want him for all my functions. 
    The pictures of my wedding still seem so real and LIVE.
    As if i am reliving the events again.
    My wedding video is no less than a Movie.
    He captured all the essence of a wedding.
    Plus his calmness and patience helped me be calm and give the shots he required.
    My wedding would not have been the same without Tapan and his team.
    Me and my husband are very thankful to him. He played such a huge part of our entire wedding process.
    We are definitely happy and satisfied clients !
    I wont only recommend him for a wedding but also for any photography needed.

    They say a picture is worth a thousand words. But I wonder, what else do “they” say?

    Your Photography is the story I fail to put into words.

    When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs.

    When images become inadequate, I shall be gratified with silence. Taking an image, freezing a moment, reveals how rich reality truly is.

    Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… It remembers little things, long after everyone has forgotten everything.

    You make photographs to understand what our lives mean to us.

    Your photography for us is not looking, it’s feeling. If you can’t feel what you’re looking at, then you’re never going to get others to feel anything when they look at your pictures.

    A portrait is not made in the camera but on either side of it.

    The instrument is not the camera but the photographer.

    You don’t take a photograph, you make it.

    When people ask us what equipment he uses?

    We tell them "His Eyes, because He is Shooting Lives.."

    Thank you Mr. "T" !!!

    Tapan Parikh, A person who will always remain close to my heart!!!

    He is not just a photographer or a friend, he is now a family...

    My journey from Anita Dighe to Anita Jadhav, he & his team had been a very important part of this transition!

    From late night prewed shoot to wedding, he always stood by me. It’s the pics he clicked that gave me a confidence, made me feel beautiful.

    I absolutely admire the way he is passionate about his work. At times he disagreed my suggestion, and had his own views. But looking at results, I feel thankful that he had disagreed with my suggestion.

    The candid pics he clicked, are not just pictures, they are moments captured, my memories trapped in frames, which are and will remain my biggest treasure.

    Once he is on project, he no more remains a photographer, he becomes a friend whom you can always turn to for advice.

    A secret thing, he is a great philosopher, n had been a mentor on various wedding related matters, which made this journey fun, easy, stress free and memorable.

    His handpicked team is also excellent, and that’s not what I felt, that was view from all the family & friends who were part of wedding.

    A tough guy when it comes about shooting, he ensures that he delivers the best. I had been lucky to have such a wonderful and talented team around for the most important task of my wedding.

    And I won’t call it photograph, I will call it capturing memories!!!
