About Family & Couple Portraits: Capturing Your Love
Most people worry they do not have that "perfect" photo, but that is actually my favorite part of the process. I often combine separate photos into one cohesive scene or restore details from older, blurry images to make them clear and vibrant again. You do not need a professional photoshoot to get a great painting; just send me the photos that make you smile, and I will handle the rest.
I specialize in turning your raw, real-life moments into timeless, hand-painted acrylic art. Since I work solo in my Mumbai studio, I handle every step of the journey, from our initial chat about the concept to the final varnish and custom packaging.
My Approach to Custom Portraits
- Merging & Restoration: Don't have a perfect group shot? No problem. I often merge family members from different photos into one frame or enhance older, low-resolution pictures to create a beautiful heirloom.
- Memorial Keepsakes: I know these pieces hold deep emotional weight. I handle memorial commissions with extra care, ensuring the final piece honors your loved ones exactly as you remember them.
- Customization: From matching background colors to your home decor to adding specific names or dates, I make sure the art fits your space and your story.
The Process
Once you send over your high-resolution (or even old/blurry) photos, we discuss the vibe. I provide a digital sketch on my iPad so we can agree on the layout before I ever touch the canvas. I primarily use high-quality acrylics on stretched archival canvas or natural wood slices. Every painting is sealed with a satin varnish to ensure it stays vibrant for years to come.
Whether you are looking for an 8x10 inch piece or a large 20x30 inch gallery-wrapped canvas for a milestone anniversary or wedding gift, I bring the same level of detail and heart to the work. I am based in Mumbai, but I ship these paintings carefully protected across India and worldwide.
