We start with a quick mood board to ensure the lighting, whether soft and natural or dramatic and shadowy, complements the specific weave and texture of your outfit, keeping the focus entirely on the details that make your look unique. Most of my traditional portrait work happens at my Bengaluru studio, where I control every shadow to highlight jewelry, embroidery, and fabric depth. I love playing with painterly backdrops that make ethnic wear pop, but I am equally happy taking the shoot outdoors to catch the golden hour. Whether you are planning a professional lookbook for a brand, an actor's portfolio update, or just want a personal session to celebrate your heritage, I work with you on the entire aesthetic. If you need help coordinating with makeup artists or deciding on props, my trusted crew is ready to step in. My approach is to strip away the clutter so we can focus on the expression and the garment. We will shoot a mix of headshots to focus on jewelry and expressions, and wider frames to show off the silhouette of your outfit. If you have a specific piece of jewelry or a family heirloom you want to highlight, bring it along. I offer fast-track delivery for premium shoots, so you can have your images ready to post or print within 48 to 72 hours. ## About Vikas Photo Factory I am Vikas. I love finding the drama in tradition—the way fabric flows or the glint in a piece of jewelry. When we shoot, it is a conversation between my camera and your personality, bringing out the royal look you have in mind.
