Oru Photo

At the peak of COVID (delta variant) in Chennai in May 2020, our wedding was nothing but unpredictable. On top of that, coming from the US while lockdowns were being announced, we were nervous about choosing someone to capture our wedding ceremony. Mahesh came recommended by my now brother-in-law and sister-in-law and we are so glad we chose the OruPhoto team. Normally, I imagine most quality photographers like the OruPhoto team would be fully booked so close to an event date. We were definitely lucky that we were able to have his team at our event. More importantly, we were so happy at his communication being that we were coordinating with multiple factors from multiple time zones — and all remotely. Our venue changed two weeks before our wedding date to be on the terrace of my grandfather’s house - an unconventional venue due to the COVID situation. We immediately informed Mahesh and not only did he accommodate the change, he was the first to help us think through the logistics of what it might entail to be able to capture our wedding perfectly. He organized photographers as needed while being very conscientious about COVID exposure and the safety of our families. To be able to remotely guide us through that entire process speaks volumes to the expertise Mahesh brings to his craft and the kindness he shows each person he interacts with. He didn't have to do that, but his care and empathy for our moments were seen and felt and we are immensely thankful for that. We received our photos promptly and they were AMAZING. We realized at that moment that the team’s mastery of the camera allowed our photos to come out beautifully even before post-processing. 90% of the work was done right when they were shooting. Also, an important thing for us was that being darker-skinned, we wanted someone who respected and kept our natural look intact. The OruPhoto team captures what they see and artistically highlight everything through their choice of composition, natural lighting, and pure talent. We got a wedding album done and the quality of that also far exceeded what we had imagined. Layouts and edits were so easy and minimal that it made our lives that much easier. The video was also amazing. All parents have watched it multiple times by now and can’t stop reminiscing about our wedding. Thank you Mahesh and the OruPhoto team for the wonderful experience! If you are looking for a talented, kind, and passionate photography and videography team who cares as much about your memories as you do, OruPhoto is the one for you!

My wedding dates were decided pretty quickly and I had to plan it within a short time frame. Photography is a major part of it, which is of utmost importance for me. I did a lot of research, scrolled through a lot of pages in instagram and queried many photographers too. This one page had a very unique name that just got stuck to my mind and I kept going through their photos. One thing that I kept telling my friends who asked about my photographer was that, of all the pages I saw this one page had moments captured (pure candid moments) and so beautifully. Mahesh is such a nice person who patiently listened to all my requirements and very silly demands. I had the best team of photographers (especially Rekha, who covered all my solo pictures). The traditional photographers were great too, they made sure all my relatives smiled for the photo (tough job). The pictures and the album came out so amazingly that I booked them again for my brother’s wedding. This will be my go to team for all future events and occasions. Thank you team Oruphoto.

We had our son’s first b’day homam planned and wanted it to be captured. My sister and brother-in-law suggested OruPhoto. I also knew about their work from my sister’s wedding and seen how professional they were at taking pics and handling people at functions too. I was absolutely thrilled when Mahesh agreed to do it. On the day of event the photographer came in, all calm, set up his equipment. We did a solo shoot of my lil one first and later the entire event was covered. He was exceptionally good with my lil one and we had some beautiful captures which we will cherish for a very long time to come. Loved their professionalism and work post event too with the pics and album. Mahesh was absolutely great in giving us the photos and album ready in such a short time. OruPhoto will now be a part of every family event of ours. I will highly recommend them to my family and friends. They are the best and know what is best. OruPhoto is all it takes 😊 kudos guys and thank you!

Oru photo and their crew were very professional and friendly. They made sure every single moment of the event were captured without any hassle. Both candid and traditional moments that were captured added a feel to it. They were also very patient and accommodating of our large, boisterous family and was able to capture everyone looking their best, which was really a miracle! Thanks to the team for doing a great job in delivering the moments perfectly! Would definitely recommend Oru photo to my friends and family for any occasion. Kudos to the dedicated team!

Marriage is a celebration of love. Its the time when families and friends come together and there is happiness spread everywhere. With such an occasion comes the need for great photography. Photos are not just for looking back but to relive those moments, cherish those most important times of your life. Oru-Photo did exactly that for us during my brother's wedding. The joyous moments of our life were captured seamlessly . All the candid moments that were captured had a feel to it.. we could relive those moments and laugh about it when we look back .. The Oru-Photo team is very good at what they do and understands what the family is looking for and delivers on them. The best part is the family is involved in every process of it. We are always provided with hundreds of pictures and left to our choices on which ones should make the final cut. Any changes required on any pic is careful taken up and we are involved in the preparation of draft copy/final copy of the album. Meticulous effort is put in by the team in delivering their goods.. I would always recommend Oru Photo to all my friends and family-They come in as photographers but leave as part of the family. Kudos Oru-Photo Keep Doing what you do!!

Weddings r pretty stressful by definition and there are lots of things that can and will go wrong. However getting the crew from Oru Photo was probably one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. The team covered the wedding with a lot of personal care that is quite rare to witness in business. Since we got introduced, Mahesh and I have become quite good friends and it has been an absolute pleasure watching him grow this wonderful company. Without doubt I have and will be recommending Oru Photo to all my friends and relatives in the future.
