About Behind the Scenes
You won't find stiff posing or uncomfortable studio lights here. When we shoot, I am the one jumping around with bubbles to get a child’s natural giggle or moving lights to catch the perfect drape of a Paithani saree. It is a collaborative process where we figure out your vibe together, whether you are a teenager bringing friends for a hangout or a family marking a milestone.
Real moments behind the camera
My photography style is built on connection, not control. Whether you are visiting my home studio in Tilak Nagar, Chembur, or we are setting up an outdoor shoot, the goal is always comfort.
The Process: I treat shoots like a conversation. If I am photographing children, we might spend time just playing—sometimes with bubbles, sometimes just chatting—until they forget I am even holding a camera. That is when the real smiles happen.
Styling & Detail: For traditional Maharashtrian shoots, I personally assist with pallu placement and use traditional props like brass lamps to ensure everything looks authentic. For brand or teenage portrait sessions, we treat it more like a creative hangout than a formal session.
Studio vs. Location: My Chembur studio is set up for flexibility, but I love traveling across Mumbai and beyond for outdoor shoots. If you have a specific venue in mind or want to capture a milestone at your home, let’s make it happen. I do not follow a strict corporate script, I follow your energy.
