About Editorial Photography
What I Do
I see with my eyes, but I listen with them too. I’m a fotograf v Indii (photographer in India), originally from Russia, now working mostly in New Delhi and Hyderabad. For me, editorial photography is about building a world inside a frame, not just snapping a picture.
My Style
- I lean towards cinematic portrait photography, using dramatic light and shadow to make images feel like movie stills.
- Black and white editorial images are my thing. They strip away the noise, leaving only mood, texture, and emotion.
- I like to experiment with high-concept photo shoots. Sometimes you’ll see veils, chains, candles, or a mix of cultures in my work. It’s not for everyone, but if you want something different, you’ll get it.
- I believe good photos need time. Sometimes, eti foto dolzhny byli nastoyat'sya (these photos need to age like wine) before they’re ready.
How We Work Together
- We start with a story. Bring your idea, or we’ll create one together.
- I have a team of stylists, makeup artists, and creative folks to help shape the shoot.
- Shoots can be in studio or on location, whatever fits the vibe.
- I edit and deliver a tight set of images that tell our story, not just a pile of files.
If you want photos that feel like a story, not just a pose, we might be a good fit.

My Story
Hey, I’m Natalia. Home is Russia for me, all mixed up feelings, sweet and sad - can’t forget it. But now, I split my days between Delhi and Hyderabad, chasing light and shadows. I believe you gotta watch with your eyes, not just look. My camera’s my journal, picking up moods, not just faces. Some call me Natalia, some Del Verma – both are me, always listening, always watching.
My Work
Fashion & Editorial Photography - I shoot moody fashion stories, cinematic editorial shoots, and commercial work with a strong visual style.
Moody, Vintage-Inspired Style - Love black and white portraits, but bold colours and vintage vibes show up a lot in my work.
Collaborative Shoots - I work with stylists, models, and makeup artists. Shoots are a team effort, all about getting that authentic image.
For Art-Driven Clients - Best fit with folks who see fashion as art – models, designers, brands wanting something real and editorial.
