SO, I sat down today to write a review on my personal experience with #Hiteshshivnaniphotography  and #Hiteshshivnani "The Photographer" Himself. And its “REAL BAD”

Disclaimer : I am the real client and its my REAL experience with him. There might be clients who have had a good experience with him (you were lucky) but what I am gonna write here is NOT exaggerated and NOT modified. So if you can sympathize with me please do not write bull-shit as I have proofs for everything I am stating and I want everyone out to be beware of the SCAM he is running on the name of #hiteshshivnaniphotography.

I am gonna cut the long story short:

• Booked him 6 Months in Advance.


• Had two personal sessions with him explaining what I want and understanding what I need to provide him in order to get what I want


• He showed me a BIG FAT printed book of ideas to shortlist from (not clicked by him) and promised he can do a better job than the pictures he showed me.


• Reassured me that I am not going to be disappointed and he is REALLY excited to capture the North – South Wedding.


• I booked his flight tickets from Delhi to Manglore (Karnataka)(along with the videographer’s)


• Took care of the airport transfer fares for both


• I booked a room for him in the same hotel we all stayed in


• Provided the same food me and my family members ate.


• Ordered all the “accessories” for funky pictures and themes we discussed


• Bought flying lanterns as he suggested and what not.

EXPERIENCE (FACTS)

• The moment he arrived at the hotel (Dec 3rd) He started complaining its really HOT!


• He started saying the room is really small and he need to move to a bigger room with AC (this was not al all mentioned at the time of booking him)


• By second day started complaining about the FOOD that we all were eating with him.


• We had to run behind him for all the events, while he was editing and sitting and chilling in the room.


• He became really good friends with my make up artist and enjoyed hanging out with her so much that he wasn’t present at the time of any important events. Unprofessional


• At the time of wedding (post and pre) he was so buzy taking songs from the DJ in his pendrive that we DO NOT have a SINGLE couple picture together that we can frame and put up on the wall. I dare him to post even PICTURE from our wedding day where you can see the newly wed couple and their Full attires!


• I had to hut for him while I was in my wedding dress so he could click ONE good pic of us with our parents.


• When I called him he said I am a CANDID photographer this is NOT my job! I mean really? You wont click a single pic of mw with my family????? Cz you are buzy transferring music?


• He was paid for a trailer too where we discussed we would need bytes of my family members (close ones obviously) .


• My sister and JIJu had to literally beg and run after him to take those bytes from them ar 3 in the night. WHY? Because he was TIRED (of transferring songs and making friends) and was sleeping!


• The only few pics that I have of my wedding are NOT clicked by him are clicked by his videographer in spare time!


• And of course the video is great because the videographer was very talented.


• Fought for payment of a lost charger of his phone.


• Said mean and rude things to me and my family on my wedding day

AND

• Vanished with my make up artist post functions and we COULD NOT track him.


• I DO NOT care what he does in his personal time, but what I do care is the MONEY I have paid and the MOST IMPORTANT DAY of my life and its Memories.

I HAVE NONE!

Post all this he still assured me that the pics will be great and editing will be on point. I am uploading few samples of low res images he shared with me to choose for the album

BTW I DON’T HAVE THE ALBUM OR THE HI RES IMAGES TILL DATE.

HE has told me that he WONT share the images with me NOW so I have lost all the movey!

Decide for yourself and only contract him for your marriage if you wanna experience all of the bove.
