Steffi E

Steffi is a cinematographer and FTII Pune graduate based in Mumbai.

Her journey into cinema began at film festivals like IFFK, where she discovered the power of image and rhythm to move an audience. What started as an obsession with watching films led her to street photography, where she learned to observe light, wait for a moment, and tell a story within a single frame.

That curiosity became a commitment, and she joined the Film and Television Institute of India, Pune, to pursue cinematography professionally. Her work is rooted in naturalism, attentive to light and texture, and focused on characters and spaces which the stories provide.

After graduation, she got the opportunity to start her career assisting Venu ISC on multiple feature films in Kerala. She has been working in Mumbai since then on projects such as Daldal (2026, amazon prime webseries) and many commercials.
