Purva Shah - Photographer and Founder of Smirk Replica, Traveller, Chai Lover

Purva Shah

Photographer and Founder of Smirk Replica, Traveller, Chai Lover

Taking Pictures, creating beautiful images and carving stories out of them is my ecstasy. My love for photography was since young age but somehow could not get through it in earlier. After completing my 2nd Phase of Chartered Accountancy I decided to quit and follow my passion. The day I started following my dream to become most creative and successful photographer I never looked back.
I love to travel different places. In fact I make sure to go for a trip every year.
For me Photography is to carve love into images.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"We found eChai to be a force multiplier throughout our startup journey. Through it, we connected with folks from DevX, Allevents, Plutomen, and more - many of whom became friends of IndiaBizForSale.com and even part of our clientele."

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."
