  • Sameer is one of the best photographers I have every worked with. His thought process and his vision for every single picture is remarkable. His way of telling a story through his photography is something that very few have. I also find him to be the most easy going and the quickest photographer I have ever worked with. When it’s Sameer, I know Urbane shoots are in good hands. Kudos to you Sam.

  • He is a Rockstar. I shot the Femina cover with Sameer and the guy in the photo was far better looking than me. That’s what Sameer does to you. He brings out that person in you which you never knew existed.

  • They say a pictures speaks a thousand words. Sameer’s work speaks louder than words. He is one of the most organised photographer I have met so far. The assignment I gave him required a quick response. Shooting celebrities is always a challenging job especially when one doesn’t have the luxury of time. Inspite of all the difficulties Sameer gave us the work without compromising the quality. His sense of lighting, capturing the mood, framing and most importantly understanding of the tight timeline is really admirable. He is also very friendly and easy to get along person. I would love to work with him more often.

  • When a man has an honest passion to drive ahead, to excel in his pursuits as a Photographer of consequence…then Sameer Belvalkar is blessed with that ability to always share his knowledge with respective, enthusiastic minds. I’ve had the absolutely pleasure of working with this inspiring man (whom I regard today, as a true friend). Devoid of any arrogance in his attitude to work… he also shares a commitment to perfection, with everyone who is around him. With his particular attention to the correct lighting of a subject and his creative play of shadow & light…almost every image the man captures, tells a story in itself.
