About Maternity & Family Photography
My Approach
I believe every family has its own story. When I shoot maternity and family sessions, I’m not just taking photos - I’m trying to capture the little moments that really show who you are. Whether it’s the nervous excitement before your baby arrives, or the messy fun of a first birthday cake smash, I want you to look back and feel those memories, not just see them.
Maternity & Couple Sessions
- I keep maternity photography natural and relaxed. We’ll go for that soft golden hour light if possible, because it just looks magical.
- You can choose where you want to shoot - parks, beaches, or even classic Mumbai spots like Gateway of India. If you want to get creative, I’m game for out-of-the-box ideas too.
- Wear whatever feels right. Flowing dresses look great, but jeans and a tee work too. Bring props - sonogram pics, tiny shoes, whatever means something to you.
Welcoming Baby & Family Portraits
- Newborn sessions are slow and gentle. I use soft wraps and safe props to keep your baby comfy.
- For candid family portraits, it’s not about stiff posing. I try to capture you just being together, whether at home or outdoors.
Milestones & Events
- I do baby milestone photography - first birthdays, cake smash sessions, and fun themed shoots (like a mini library or musical setup).
- If you want memories from events like naming ceremonies or baby showers, I cover those too.
I love working with families who want real moments, not just picture-perfect smiles. Our shoots are all about you, your city, and your story.

My Story
Hey, Chetan here. Mumbai is home, and honestly, nothing beats catching those real moments – from a baby smashing cake to a bride’s smile or a model just owning it. Some days, I’m knee-deep in confetti, other days it’s quiet by the sea with a mom-to-be. I’m all about the stories and the magic that happens when people forget the camera’s there. That’s what keeps me hooked.
My Work
Photography & Cinematography - I shoot pre-weddings, weddings, maternity, baby shoots (cake smash included), family portraits, and fashion/model portfolios.
Modern Cinematic Style - I go for clean, cinematic shots, love natural light – especially golden hour portraits for that dreamy vibe.
Life’s Big Moments - Major events, real emotions – I capture the anticipation, joy, and connections in every session.
Collaborative Shoots - Worked with models, makeup artists, brands – team shoots are my jam for creative concepts.
