Moving from my initial home setup to this larger, airy space was a deliberate decision to create a sanctuary where you can feel truly relaxed. Whether you are a mom-to-be or a fellow photographer attending a workshop, this environment is designed to let you be yourself, unhurried and comfortable, while we focus on the art of capturing your real story. ### Building a Sanctuary for Art When I first started, my studio was just a cozy room in my house. Today, that space has grown into a destination for clients and students alike. This transition wasn't just about square footage. It was about creating an environment that matches the intimacy of maternity and newborn photography. A space where a mother can feed her baby, rest, and feel safe while we work. ### More Than a Photographer My path has taken me from teaching a room full of 200 photographers at WPPI Las Vegas to capturing the journeys of incredible clients like Debina Bonnerjee and Swara Bhasker. Being recognized as a Canon Maestro has been a massive honor, but the real reward is what I learned along the way. I believe that photography is a language, not just a technical skill. Whether I am shooting or mentoring, I bring the same philosophy: real talk, no gatekeeping, and a focus on honest, unfiltered moments. ### Join the Community This studio is the heart of my work. It is where I host hands-on workshops for photographers looking to move from Auto to Manual mode or master complex lighting. It is where I guide parents through the styling of their family portraits. If you are looking for a photography experience that feels like a conversation rather than a stiff photoshoot, or if you want to learn the craft in a supportive, hype-up-the-others kind of community, you are in the right place. ## About Memories by Barkha I started in a tiny home room and learned that the camera is just a tool, because the connection is what truly matters. Whether I am shooting a celebrity mom-to-be or teaching a group of photographers, I bring the same raw energy and focus on light. This studio is just the newest chapter in my promise to capture your authentic story.
