About Baby & Kids Photography
Capturing little ones is my passion - from sleepy newborns to the wild first birthday cake smash. I love freezing those quick, natkhat (mischievous) grins and tiny expressions that disappear before you know it.
Milestone Moments
Babies change so fast. I offer sitter session photos for when your munchkin starts sitting up and their personality really pops. First birthday shoots and cake smash photography are my favorites - pure, messy happiness and laughs you’ll want to remember.
Themed & Cultural Shoots
We can get creative with themed baby portraits - think boho, jungle explorer, little sailor, or hot air balloon. I also love celebrating our culture. If you want your baby dressed as Little Krishna for Janmashtami or as a tiny Varkari, I’ve got the props, outfits and ideas. Holi shoots use safe, baby-friendly colors and pichkaris (water guns) for that festival feel.
The Experience
Shoots can happen in my Malad West studio, outdoors in Mumbai, or right at your home. I handle all props, outfits, wraps, and setups. Families are always welcome to join in for a few shots - nothing forced, just real smiles and hugs.
Comfort First
Your baby’s comfort comes before any photo. I plan each session around their mood, naps, and needs. If they’re happy, I’m happy, and you’ll get natural, timeless photos.

My Story
Hey, I’m Shalaka – some say photographer, I say fotosmith. I’m hooked on capturing those tiny, blink-and-you-miss moments: a mother’s glow, a baby’s yawn, chubby cheeks, giggles. Babies grow up so fast, right? I started this to freeze those little miracles, so you can hold onto them. I’m all about fun themes too – a baby as little Kanha for Janmashtami? Pure joy. Whether in my studio or your home, comfort and safety come first.
My Work
Newborn, Maternity & Family Shoots - I do photoshoots for newborns, maternity, pre-birthdays, cake smash, milestones, and families.
Safe & Cozy Experience - Your baby’s comfort is top. Sessions are gentle, patient, and always safe, wherever we shoot.
Creative Themes & Props - Love bringing themes alive! Janmashtami baby photoshoot, mermaids – I provide all props and costumes.
Studio or Home Shoots - You pick – my Malad West studio or your home, both set up for beautiful, relaxed photos.
