In his post, he invited users to ask him anything related to photography, weddings, and more. “Hi, it’s me Joseph Radhik! Ask me anything about photography, portraits, weddings, and more! [AMA],” he captioned the post. During the session, a user enquired about his experience with the Ambani wedding, which is considered one of the most luxurious weddings in India. The user asked, “Did you have fun, and how was the experience for you? Did the bride’s parents hire you, or was the entire wedding organized under the supervision of the Ambanis, including Mrs. Neeta Ambani herself?” In response, Radhik shared, “It was so much fun! We were hired the Ambani family, and a little known fact about us is that we’ve photographed the other two siblings’ weddings as well. :)” A user asked about how he got started in photography and what inspired him to pursue it as a career. The Reddiotr, wrote, “Sir, Were you well known about yourself that you’re gonna choose to be a Photographer? Or it came up uncertainly or anything like that? I’m really curious as I’m at this point of my life where I’m confused between between my hob or any other proffesion that my parents approved. What were you like at the age of 20 could you pls tell how you’ve chosen your path and all. Thank you!” Radhik replied, “At 20, I was preparing for the CAT, and hoping to get into the IIMs. I did go to IIM Indore, and pursued a regular corporate career for 4 years after which I took the leap into wedding photography. 🙂 My advice: your hob is not going anywhere, get SO good at it that it pushes you away from your main career – whichever you choose.” Take a look at the post: Joseph Radhik was the man behind the stunning images from Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli’s wedding in 2017.A user questioned during the 2-hour long AMA session, “Which is your best-captured photograph and any story behind it?” To which he replied, “In black and white, with him (Virat Kohli) kissing her (Anushka Sharma)on her forehead. This is easily my favourite photo because it looks posed, but is 100% documentary. I was just grinning wide when clicking the shutter.” Radhik made headlines earlier this year when he photographed the second pre-wedding celebration of Anant Ambani, the younger son of Mukesh and Nita Ambani, and Radhika Merchant, daughter of Viren and Shaila Merchant. The lavish event took place aboard a cruise in Europe, with festivities spanning four days and stops across the Mediterranean.
