Raihan Vadra, the son of influential Congress figure Priyanka Gandhi and entrepreneur Robert Vadra, has officially announced his engagement to Delhi-based photographer Aviva Baig. The couple has enjoyed a loving relationship spanning over seven years, further solidifying their connection through familial ties.
Aviva, a skilled visual artist, boasts a commendable educational background in media and communication. She attended the prestigious Modern School in Delhi prior to earning her degree in Journalism and Communication at OP Jindal Global University. Her love for photography led her to establish Atelier 11, a renowned photographic studio and production house known for collaborations with various clients, brands, and agencies across India. Her photographic work, spotlighting everyday moments, has garnered her acclaim at numerous exhibitions, including a feature in the 'You Cannot Miss This' exhibit alongside Method Gallery in 2023, as well as the Young Collector Programme at the India Art Fair.
Beyond photography, Aviva has amassed a diverse portfolio in media, assuming roles like freelance producer at PlusRymn, junior project manager at PROPAGANDA, marketing intern at Art Chain India, and editor-in-chief at The Journal of I-Parliament. She has interned for prestigious publications such as Verve Magazine India and Creative IMAGE Magazine, enhancing her editorial and communication expertise.
Similarly, Raihan’s journey in photography began in his youth. His works encompass a wide array of styles, including wildlife, street, and commercial photography. An eye injury during a school cricket match was a turning point that prompted him to delve into black-and-white photography, using shadows and contrasts to evoke emotion and depth in his images. His debut solo exhibition at Bikaner House in New Delhi marked a significant achievement in his artistic path.
With the backing of his mother, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, Raihan continues to develop his photographic skills, drawing influence from his late grandfather, Rajiv Gandhi, who shared a passion for photography.
The engagement of Raihan Vadra and Aviva Baig heralds an exciting new chapter as they prepare to journey forward together. Both are lauded for their artistic prowess and dedication to their crafts, uniting two creative spirits rooted in rich cultural and social narratives.
