What started as a hobby is now my full-time thing. Nothing beats the feeling of drawing on someone's hands and knowing it’s going to be part of their big day. ### Your Life, Your Mehendi I’m all about making your bridal mehendi truly personal. No cookie-cutter stuff here. Each design tells a story - yours. I listen to all the little details that make your love story unique, and I turn them into art you can actually wear. - Portrait mehendi for couples: I use my portrait drawing background to get those bride & groom faces just right. Mythological portraits like Radha Krishna? Totally up for it. - Want to show off your couple hashtag, or sneak in your wedding date or that silly inside joke? I can fit all those into your design, easy. - If you vibe with a city or want a Rajasthani royal theme, or even want Warli art, let’s make it happen. ### More Than Just Weddings I mostly do bridal mehendi, but I also love working on baby showers. I can add portraits of the parents-to-be, tiny baby doodles, or anything that fits your story. ### How I Work You tell me what matters to you. I sketch, we chat, and we tweak till it feels just right. Everything’s custom, so your mehendi feels like you - not just any bride. ## Highlights Browse through Mehendi by Aishwarya's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/mehendhika/custom-storytelling-portrait-mehendi/featured) - ![This Rajasthani-themed bridal mehendi tells a complete love story.
