My Story
Hey, I’m Malavika. I split my time between Mumbai and Kochi, always chasing that next idea. For me, photography isn’t just about looking good – it’s about saying something, making you feel. I’m all about exploring stories, like how old glamour fades or how magazines shape us. Learned a lot at FAD International, surrounded by creative minds. Love the teamwork, from stylists to models. Seeing our vision in Elle India or PhotoVogue? That’s the real thrill.
My Work
Fashion Photography & Art Direction - I shoot conceptual fashion images and direct editorial projects for brands, designers, and magazines.
Conceptual Shoots & Dramatic Lighting - My style leans artistic, using dramatic lighting and storytelling through silhouettes and emotion.
35mm Film Fashion Shoots - Sometimes I use 35mm film to get that raw, textured vibe in my images.
Collaborative Creative Process - I work with stylists, makeup artists, and models – all about building a strong team vision.
Best Fit for Artistic Editorials - I vibe best with creatives who want bold, editorial-style photos built on strong concepts.
