About us

At Candid Carnival, we believe that photography is more than capturing images; it’s about encapsulating the moment’s emotions, love, and joy. With over a decade of experience, our team specializes in creating timeless memories that reflect your unique story. Whether it’s a grand wedding, a candid family moment, or a corporate event, we strive to deliver unparalleled quality and creativity. Our commitment to excellence has allowed us to complete over 500 projects, earning the trust of more than 300 satisfied clients.

Before the festivities, we prioritise fostering familiarity and trust through meets. We always love to welcome them to enjoy the luxury of albums at our studio. On the E-Meet initiative through virtual calls, we ensure that couples and their parents acquaint themselves with our team, understanding their roles and forming a bond that transcends the lens. This proactive approach not only cultivates a comfortable atmosphere where everyone feels at ease but also transforms us into an integral part of the extended family throughout the celebration.

Founder
Murali Daran

Hi, I’m Murali Daran, a passionate portrait and wedding photographer. I founded Candid Carnival during my final year of Civil Engineering studies in 2015. Driven by a love for storytelling through photography, I have dedicated my career to capturing authentic moments that resonate deeply with our clients. With over 500 successful projects, my journey has been one of learning, growth, and creating lasting memories for countless families and couples.

From humble beginnings to establishing one of the most trusted photography brands, my vision has always been clear—creating art through the lens. Photography, for me, is not just a profession but a medium to preserve the essence of life’s most beautiful moments. 

Co-Founder
Venkatesh

Hello, I’m Venkatesh, co-founder of Candid Carnival. My journey began during the final year of my Master’s in Construction Engineering in 2017. Cinematography and storytelling have always been my passions, and at Candid Carnival, I bring every frame to life by adding meaning and emotion. My mission is to ensure that every client feels their moments are captured with the utmost care and professionalism.

My love for storytelling started early, and I’ve always been fascinated by the power of visuals. Joining Candid Carnival gave me the perfect platform to merge my technical skills with my creative instincts. Every frame I capture is a testament to my dedication to portraying the beauty and emotions of life’s special moments.
