About
I see myself as not just being a photographer, but rather an artist creating unique and expressive imagery. I bring talent, heart, and passion to create amazing photos and memories for my clients. Having a creative eye helps me go beyond conventional techniques to include beauty, elegance, and sophistication. My style of shooting is influenced by fine-art and fashion and the result is creative, clean, and crisp photography that's fun and emotional. My portfolio of services includes wedding photography, engagements, portraits, special events. I love photography because it has given me the opportunity to share and capture in people’s most special moments and it makes my heart smile when I see the reactions I get from my clients when I show them the final product! Photography is an art which I've acquired through education and constant passion.

It was a pleasure working with Chicago Portraits; Barney and his team. Professionalism goes a long way and Barney went above a beyond to show this; he accommodated many changes in our photoshoot times and was extremely patient during the entire sessions. Very easy going, perfectionist and an eye for great location and surroundings. I had initially contacted Barney to have him shoot our wedding photos but later on agreed to have him take our pre-wedding photos, which turned out stunning. The photoshoots were both seamless and exciting because he would describe, guide and explain how he would like the pictures taken. The whole process seemed professional but also with a bit of silliness and fun involved which helps in capturing good moments. They made us feel comfortable and at ease and most importantly, the photos look great and unique I recommend Barney not only because of the end product (beautiful stunning pictures) but because of the experience and the way he worked with us. He was patient, punctual and his attention to detail is impeccable. We look forward to working with you again in the near future. Many Thanks!

We hired Chicago Portraits for our wedding and we are so happy that we did! They were very responsive to our needs for multiple events and communicated with us every step of the way. We had Bharani as our photographer, who was eager to understand our vision. We first had a phone conversation to see if Chicago Portraits would fit our needs and once we decided to move forward, Bharani made himself available to meet in person prior to any photo shoot to go over the details. He was very flexible and accommodating to our schedules. Also, we aren't the most comfortable couple in front of the camera, but the photographers put us at ease and even offered suggestions for poses. They were very patient to capture the best photos possible. We're extremely pleased with the results. We intend to hire them again for future events and would highly recommend them to anyone else!

Details: Wedding • 51 - 100 people • Indoors • CD / DVD • Digital or online download • $$ (standard) • Bride or groom • $500 - $1,000

Barney is an amazing photographer who works really well with people making them comfortable in the shoot. Just had the engagement and save the date shoot done by him and i absolutely loved the pictures. He knows just the right angles and right positioning in his photography and he was really kind with my fiance and me. Although he was running out of time, he was very patient and accomodated every shot that we requested for. He listened carefully to all the things my fiance and I have mentioned and captured the best moments. It was nothing but a positive experience with Barney and I highly recommend him for photoshoots.
