Happiness is winning the Gold Award in the competition steered by ‘NCPAI- Newborn & Child Photographers Association of India’.
This is Midhu Sreenivas, maternity - a newborn baby photographer, who has captured numerous tiny darlings and I’m just glad that I could take part in this contest conducted by NCPAI. It is a great privilege that amongst 300 participants from various parts of India, I was worthy enough to have secured the first place.
NCPAI is the only national association for newborn and child photographers in India that inspires and influences photographers of the same field to evolve together as an industry. Since it is a quite new field in our country and has the potential to grow exponentially, NCPAI upholds the newborn and child photography as a progressing genre of photography. And winning this award is indeed a greater pleasure for me as the association is a joint effort of people who excel in this field, such as Mommy shots by Amrita Samant, Mommygrapher Shweta Mukherjee, Edita Paluri, Anega Bawa, Anamika Singh, Tiny Love Photography by Neha Malhotra etc. These are some amazing personalities who I look up to and adore the most too.
The theme of the competition was ‘Connection’ and the photo I have sent for the program was my one of my favorites too. A photo that was loved by friends and followers like, it was an easy choice when the theme popped up. Most of us take a trip through the memory line when we are reminded of the wonderful connection between grandparents and children. This relation works as an even deeper connection. The photo was an attempt to portray this connection in the best way possible, and I’m delighted that all of us loved the same.
Through my photo I have tried to show that magical connection and closeness between grandparents and kids and also the journey of mankind to childish nature as they grow old. I also want my audience to understand how this connection can deeply impact both in a hopeful way. Once again, I’m happy that everyone liked and accepted the photo wholeheartedly.
