Indians Who Laughed

I enjoy making folks laugh when I photograph them, not so much for the shoot, but rather as that moment when I can give them something--that momentary mirth, that forgetting of other things, the warmth of joy for that moment. On a grey day down here in South of India, I hope these photographs make you smile too-:)

Young women near Misrikh, Uttar Pradesh


Girl on the route to Pataudi
Kids in a village in Uttar Pradesh
Woman in Bhopal
Adivasi boy in Ghumla District, Jharkhand
Fruit seller at Mangalore
Children who tried hard not to smile (they felt their teeth was not nice enough)
