Our Story
From holding a passion for Travel, Wildlife and Street-photography to becoming professional Wedding Photographers, the story of The Story Folks is an interesting one.
Former marketing and media professionals, Kanupriya and Parag were bitten by the travel and photography bug very early on. This wife-husband duo always managed to balance their previous corporate work-life and creative pursuits on their many travels together and channelled their creativity into making photos of the amazing places and adventures they explored together. It only took one wedding to change all of that. The joy of capturing special moments at their dear friend's wedding coupled with the delighted responses of the bride and groom and their families helped Kanupriya and Parag rethink their career and life plans.
In the years since, Fotowalle - The Story Folks, co-founded by Kanupriya and Parag Aurora, has grown to become a team of one of India's most talented and sought-after wedding photographers and cinematographers who have shot over 11 countries and 4 continents.
“We understand the essence of a wedding story, the importance of documenting real moments and the value of capturing memories that go down generations”
With over ten years of creative experience, Kanupriya and Parag understand the importance of not only the grand moments of a wedding but also the sweet, unscripted, real emotional moments of that special day.
“While we have a super time capturing a breath taking bride entry, a majestic varmala, a dreamy and romantic exchange of rings, the classic family portraits, but, it’s the more intimate and real moments - such as the groom hugging his grandmother or the bride wiping off tears on her father’s cheek or best friends sharing a crazy moment on the dance floor – these are the moments we live for!
It’s these authentic moments and genuine interactions between the bride, groom and their families that give each wedding its unique characteristic.
For us, every wedding is a unique story, brimming with such precious raw moments that should be dearly treasured, for, today’s moments are tomorrow’s memories. Memories that go down generations. Memories to be preserved for eternity.
We feel honoured that our Clients and their families from across the globe entrust us to document their special day. The happiness, excitement and amazement of our brides, grooms and their families when they see their wedding photographs and videos gives us a high like no other! This is the reason why we became wedding story tellers and nothing comes close to it!"
