Today is all about life in dreamland. .! No.. iam not talking about The Alice and the Wonderland of Oz.. This is about every other person of Ameriland.. or say every other family in Ameriland.. First you severe your ties with your homeland in pursuit of better life.. you reach here with gleaming eyes trying to fit in and stand out. But do we really need to stand out ?? Most of us are here by choice, I haven’t come across any person, who was forced to come here.. Every single living person here is for better life and to have a better future.. So how did u really end up here ?? Are you really destined to be here or it happened.. Every other person would answer “luckily my petition was chosen from the lottery”.. Really.. Are you that lucky.. lets talk about the Body shopping and Marketing Companies.. While you are in Hamara land, all you do and think is about Ameri land.. You work for it, you struggle for it, you even fight for it..! Every year when the window for visa o...

Before you start to judge me, step into my shoes and walk the life im living and if you get as far as iam, just maybe you will see how strong I really am.. Until you have lived my life and walked my path, suffered my pain and seen what I’ve seen.. I would care less about your judgements. I still have my feet on the ground, I just wear better shoes now. Its said that give a girl the right shoes and she can conquer the World.. Yes She can..! Life happens when you have a little one clinging to your arms (wiggled and wrapped up).. Its all about them..! Every move you take, you ought to think twice.. (or may be in my case think thrice and multiple times).. So a typical working day in my life begins around 6:00 AM when my alarm starts singing my favorite song (which by no means is not my favorite anymore..) I hate the song as much as I hate any other thing which wakes me up from my dreams.. It cracks me up when I look back at my alarm.. Its usually set across for every 15 mins up until...

one fine evening, Dhruvan's Parents (Swarna & Srinivas) gave a call to iClicksbyRuby. They were referred by one of my friends Teju. Upon talking to them understood that all they wanted was a private outdoor shoot of their family as well as a Themed Cake Smash. Once agreed upon i had my thinking caps on and Jumped into action. There were lot of things to be considered, Cake, Theme, Decor, Location, Time. Finally upon due consideration, SS came up with the theme of Mickey Mouse. So Yes, Mickey It is..! Now i knew what i had to do next, Quickly made few pompoms, Brought an extra cake stand (just as backup). Swarna & Srinivas Brought a yummilicious Mickey Mouse Cake (Baked by Snack'O'Bake) And finally the day arrived. Set my family to motion and drove to the location, where my hubby jumped into action to set up things. I found my little one setting up props.. (So blessed to see these Sweet Hearts in Action). we had a fun filled shoot with DHRUVAN.. Here are a...

So after a long time, iam trying to write up something which has been on my mind for a while now. Last when we spoke, i pen down my thoughts about struggles of a Independent Women thriving to find her own self. In the very same article i also mentioned that Photography is the only thing (apart from my family) which was keeping me sane. Yes.. I still follow my dreams.. And Yes.. I have started photography as a service and cover events as well as outdoor shoots.. So this is all about the kind of weird people you come across when you expose your talents and charge for it.. All is well, unless u dont charge it..! You are so excellent at everything.. U get insane pat on the backs.. But is that all.. Is that going to pay back the $$$$ amount u spent on your Gear.. Needless to mention the hours of tedious effort editing. and what about Travel (whoz gonna pay for it).. So i thought NO MORE.. I learnt my Vocabulary and started saying NO.. "Mmm Hmm..! unless you pay for it..! No...
