Royd Tauro's photostream

I am a commercial photographer living in Birmingham, UK. I was born in 1988 in Mangalore, India and grew up in Mumbai. Living in a big city like Mumbai exposed me to a wide variety of sights, smells and experiences that contribute a great deal to the dynamic nature of my images.

I like to employ a photojournalistic style in my portrait and fashion photography. I pride myself in my understanding of human emotions and my ability to capture the true personality of an individual.

A strong believer in 'The Decisive Moment' philosophy, my images are dynamic and truly represent a moment in time. I love photographing people and my friendly and easy going nature helps me build a rapport with strangers almost instantly.

I use colour as well as black & white creatively to bring out the best in my subjects. My style borders on the bold and the unconventional. My images have interesting compositions and I am not afraid to experiment with camera position and angles to get the images I am after.
