selfie = how the world perceives you ; soulfie = how you perceive the world.

Pictures we click have stories, flashbacks and memories attached to them. Not all of them but few end up churning subtle emotions deep within, immediately after you have clicked or also when you go back to some old pictures you clicked. Irrespective of whether you have anything to do with the picture or not,

few pictures tell you a story or they help you build one.

Selfies are easy. Selfies have been popular because they are the quickest way to show the world who you are. It has helped us to be unabashed and taught us to shed our inhibitions. It is a trend. It is a statement you make to the world. It is a phenomenon which the world has embraced with open arms. It is not rocket science , yet just a simple act of turning that camera has given us stories. It has a given us a new perspective. a new way to share a part of ourselves. All with a click!

Now imagine allowing those pictures to go deeper. To show what you are made of and what are you from the inside? What do you stand for? Your inner self. That rich, genuine and untapped creativity. Your morals and fights. Your stories and values, which go beyond the people in a picture and the place it was taken. A platform to bridge a picture with an emotion. A story. All with a picture !

Soulfie is letting the picture you captured, capture you!

Soulfie will help you go beyond the geographical barriers. Beyond any cast, color or creed. Soulfie will help you travel and live a moment from an another persons perspective. Soulfie is transcending beyond captions and capturing emotions behind the pictures.

Soulfie will try to set free the story trapped within, the message trapped within.

You need not be the best photographer or a prolific writer. But you need to just feel, think or love to read between pixels in a picture. Then I am sure you will encounter situations where your soul will yearn to tell a story.

Soulfie is for that storyteller within all of us!

Looking forward for a picturesque story sharing experience.
