Malkapuram
Andhra Pradesh
A port-side area where industry and housing sit next to each other. Functions are mostly held at home or at local halls, and those halls are built for capacity rather than for light: the priority was fitting the guest list in, and the ceiling height and the lighting both follow from that.

What we photograph here
Weddings and receptions at local halls, home functions, naming ceremonies and birthdays.
Planning around the place
A hall built for numbers usually means a low ceiling and tube lighting across it, so we light the room ourselves rather than hoping it will serve. We also find the group-portrait position before the hall fills, because in a room packed to its capacity there is no clearing space for one afterwards.
