About Beauty & Cosmetics Photography
What I Do
I run Chandra Pictures, where everything’s about making beauty and cosmetic stuff look honestly good in photos. My thing is clean, sharp images - whether it’s for your online store, catalogue, or a full-blown ad campaign, I want your product to actually look like something people want to pick up.
My Approach
I never work totally solo. Most shoots, I rope in stylists and sometimes entire production houses. That way, even big, messy projects get the right creative touch. If you want ingredient-focused beauty photography or wild splash shots for skincare, we’ve got the setup for that.
What You Get
- E-commerce shots: Super crisp, true color, zero weird filters.
- Lifestyle campaigns: With models, real scenes, not just generic setups. Festivals, seasons, whatever fits.
- Dynamic splash images: Especially for face washes, creams, stuff that needs to look fresh and high-end.
Creative Product Styling
Making a lipstick or a face wash pop needs more than just a plain background. I use props, colors, and natural stuff - like tea tree or citrus - to give each product its own vibe. Creative product styling is kind of my specialty.
Experience
I’ve shot for big brands and local names, covering everything from makeup (lipsticks, mascara, foundations) to personal care (creams, deodorants, trimmers). If you’re after social media beauty reels or short campaign videos, I can make those too.
If you want your stuff to actually stand out, I’m here.

Chandra Pictures
My Story
Delhi NCR is home, and Chandra Pictures is my playground. I started this because, honestly, I love chasing that perfect shot—sometimes it’s a diamond ring sparkling, sometimes it’s just a bowl of soup looking like comfort. For me, it’s not only about the product, it’s about the vibe, the feeling. I’m happiest when I’m with my crew, fiddling with lights, making sure every detail pops. Brands trust us to turn their ideas into visuals that actually feel alive.
