Photography started everywhere I went.

About Dilesh

Photography. Videography.
Creativity. Stories.

I'm Dilesh Mansukhlal Karia, a freelance photographer, videographer and AI video creator based in Mumbai & Navi Mumbai.

Photography was part of my life long before it was my profession. I was always clicking photographs wherever I went, and my younger brother inspired me to take it seriously. In September 2024 that passion became a craft: I trained at St. Xavier's, Mumbai, learned from senior photographers at The Photographic Society of India, and gained hands-on experience on real wedding assignments.

On 30 January 2025 I opened my studio in Kamothe. Today I shoot weddings, birthdays, kids, anniversaries, corporate events, travel and portraits, and I explore AI video generation to combine technology with visual storytelling.
