A quiet walk under a canopy of trees, with golden leaves falling like blessings. I love capturing these simple, unscripted moments of connection for expecting couples, where nature itself seems to celebrate with you.

Inspired by the timeless paintings of Raja Ravi Varma, this studio portrait captures the divine grace of motherhood. Draped in a traditional red saree, this mother-to-be holds a 'laddoo', symbolizing the sweetness of new beginnings.

Feel like the queen you are in this flowing pink ruffled gown. In the studio, I use dramatic lighting and posing to create fine art maternity portraits that are both powerful and elegant, celebrating the beautiful form of pregnancy.

Standing tall and radiant amidst a field of flowers, this portrait is all about embracing the quiet strength of motherhood. My outdoor sessions are perfect for capturing that natural, sun-kissed glow in a peaceful setting.

The joy of a growing family is a story in itself. This portrait, with the older daughter proudly announcing her promotion to "Big Sister," is one of those heartwarming moments that I feel so honoured to capture.

A spontaneous dance on a rain-soaked path, surrounded by lush greenery. This is the kind of magic I love to create during my outdoor maternity shoots, capturing the pure joy and romance of your journey together.

For those who dream a little bigger, I blend photography with digital art to create fantastical scenes. Here, a mother-to-be is framed by a magical cottage blooming with flowers, turning her portrait into a modern fairytale.

Sometimes, the most powerful stories are told in the quietest details. This intimate close-up shows a couple's hands gently holding the baby bump, a simple gesture that speaks volumes about their shared love and anticipation.

About Maternity Photography

My Approach: More Than Just a Photo

I’m all about capturing the real ehsaas (feeling) of your pregnancy. For me, it’s not about perfect smiles or stiff poses. It’s those raw, soulful moments - the kind that make you pause and remember how this felt years from now. If you love misty mornings or golden hour, we’ll probably vibe. My style is less about props, more about the heartbeat of motherhood.

Where I Shoot: Nature, Studio, or Home

Honestly, I’m happiest outdoors - chasing that forest vibe, especially during the monsoons. If you want natural, outdoor pregnancy photoshoot moments, I’m game. But my cozy home studio in Mulund West is always ready, with warm setups for those who prefer indoors. And yeah, I can come to your place too for a chill lifestyle maternity photography session.

Your Style, Your Story

Every mom’s journey is different, so I offer:

Bohemian maternity portraits with earthy tones, macrame, flowers.
Classic, vintage setups for simple, timeless looks.
Artistic pregnancy photos with dreamy themes or a touch of digital magic.
Indian saree maternity session inspired by heritage and Ravi Verma paintings.

Real Life, Real Family

Bring your husband, kids, pets - whoever makes your family yours. I keep things relaxed with gentle direction, like 'Thoda bahar jaana, perfect!' letting you just be yourselves.

What to Wear

I’ve got maternity gowns for you, but a saree or your own favorite outfit always works best. Comfort is key - you should feel beautiful, not dressed up for someone else.

My Story

Hey, I’m Payal. I chase sunlight, not studio lights. My camera and I, happiest in a forest, or with the rain making everything smell fresh. I always tell moms, 'don’t pose, just be.' Aaj kal sabko studio photo chahiye, but I love messy, muddy shoes and laughs that aren’t planned. Horses, kids, monsoon mornings—yeh sab mere frames mein aate hain. Real, imperfect, nature-blessed—that’s what I want to remember.
