Dhaval Sunil Dhairyawan (19 April 1979 – 22 March 2012)[1] was a lifestyle and automotive photographer from India. He was noted for his photojournalism for The Times Journal of Photography,[2] TopGear India, The Times of India,[3] and Lonely Planet.[4][5][6][7][8]

Mumbai-based Piramal Art Gallery hosted a photo exhibition in his memory under the name, The Dhaval Dhairyawan Retrospective.[9]
