Getting the perfect shot involves more than just a camera. Here is how I pack up my Navi Mumbai studio and travel across Mumbai to bring professional setups right to your home.

It's me, Lakhan, with one of my adorable clients. I love getting to know the babies and families I photograph.

This video shows part one of my process for a home session: carefully packing all the props and traveling to the client's home, ready to create beautiful photos.

Part two of my home session process. Here you can see me unloading all the equipment. I bring a full studio setup to your home to ensure we get the best quality images.

About A Look Behind the Lens

Packing for a home session is like a military operation, as I follow a rigid checklist to ensure that not a single prop or light strobe gets left behind. Whether I am driving from Navi Mumbai to a client's place in Pune or across the city, my goal is to recreate a full-blown studio experience in your living room, ensuring the same quality without you having to travel with a newborn.

When you book a home session, you are not just getting a photographer, you are getting a mobile studio. Many parents ask if the quality at home matches what they see in my Navi Mumbai studio gallery, and the answer is yes, because I do not just bring a camera, I bring the entire studio setup to you.

The Mobile Setup

I load up professional backdrop stands, heavy studio strobes, and multiple suitcases filled with sanitized fabrics and props. This requires a dedicated 10x10 ft space and access to power, but the comfort for you and your baby during the crucial 5-15 day window is worth it.

Why the Process Matters

As someone with an engineering background, I approach every setup with precision. I have mapped out every inch of my gear to ensure we have themes like bean bag poses or basket setups ready to go efficiently. This preparation minimizes the time spent setting up, allowing more time for feeding or nap breaks to keep your baby comfortable. I travel across the Mumbai Metropolitan Area and select Pune locations to help families capture these milestones in the comfort of their own environment. My process is all about making the newborn photography experience stress-free for new parents, focusing on safety, hygiene, and timeless images.

I am Lakhan, and I believe every great photo has a story behind it, usually involving a lot of heavy lifting and a bit of road trip chaos. I treat your baby’s shoot like a mission, combining my engineering precision with a love for capturing those early, fleeting smiles.
