About Maternity, Newborn & Baby Photography
How I Photograph Your Story
I believe every photo should feel honest, not staged. This started with a quiet moment with my own son, and it’s shaped how I capture families - real, raw, and full of emotion.
Maternity: Simple, Dramatic, Yours
Maternity sessions usually happen between 28 and 36 weeks. I work with you - whether you want a clean, minimalist look, dramatic shadows, flowy gowns, or just comfy jeans and a tee. Partners, kiddos, even your nayi kutti (dog) or pets are welcome. These moments are about your whole family, not just the bump.
Newborns: Safety First, Always
The best time for lifestyle newborn photos is 6-14 days old, but it’s fine if you’re running late. Older babies (up to 8 weeks) are just as magical, with open eyes and new quirks. I never force poses; your baby’s comfort is everything. Amma-baby cuddles, skin-to-skin with appa (dad), sibling snuggles - I capture it all, patiently and gently.
Sitter Sessions: Chubby Cheeks, Big Smiles
Around 7-10 months, babies sit up and show off their personalities. These sessions are pure joy - giggles, rolls, and all those silly faces.
Albums: Your Family’s First Chapter
I offer handcrafted albums that turn your memories into a legacy. It’s about more than pretty pictures - it’s your story, told honestly.

My Story
Hey, I’m Kavitha. My camera’s basically my third hand now. Got hooked when I saw my son Addi bathed in evening light at three months old - that’s when I knew, this is it for me. Addi’s 15 now, and being his Amma is both wild and grounding. I’m not big on being polished or perfect, I show up real, messy hair days and all. Heart’s always in it, that’s my thing.
My Work
Maternity & Newborn Sessions - I offer luxury maternity photography, newborn portraits, and sitter sessions, capturing real connections and natural light.
Legacy Heirlooms, Not Just Photos - I want you to have keepsakes - family heirlooms that hold your story, not just pretty pictures.
Chaos Is Welcome - Babies wiggle, parents worry, but candid newborn moments are where the magic happens. Snack breaks? All part of it.
Simple, Emotional Style - Natural light newborn portraits, soft props, and often black and white baby photos. I keep things honest and relaxed.
Come As You Are - No need to stress or prep. You’re sleep-deprived? I get it. Just be yourselves, I’ll take care of the rest.
