My name is Viraaj Rane. I'm currently a first year student at UC San Diego pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science. Photography has been a passion of mine for several years, and I specialize in wildlife photography as well as portrait photography. I love capturing the beauty of nature and the essence of people through my lens. However, I love to explore different genres such as sports and automotive photography.

I started my photography journey by posting on my Instagram for my friends to see. However, I quickly realized my small hobby was turning turning into something much bigger. As my skills in photography continued to get better, I was approached by a group of friends who asked to take their graduation pictures. This moment encouraged me to experiment with other forms of photography such as events, sports, and astrophotography.

Now, I am a professional event photographer that has the priviledge of capturing unforgettable moments for the people around me. Photography is a way I can capture the stories, adventures, and rare moments around me.
