Featured Photography Work by Rakshith Shetty
A look at my work across Bangalore, from the energy of the runway to the quiet emotion of a portrait and the sharp detail of commercial shoots.
This is where the magic begins. I love capturing these behind the scenes moments during a bridal portfolio shoot, where the collaborative effort of makeup artists and stylists comes together to create a stunning final look.
The runway is a place of high energy and bold statements. My goal here was to capture the power and drama of this sequined magenta outfit, using the stage lighting to highlight its texture and the model's confident pose.
Capturing the pure joy of a Sangeet night. This shot is all about the connection between the couple, lost in their dance under the spotlights. It's these unscripted, emotional moments that make event photography so special.
An automotive portrait is about more than just the machine; it's about the attitude. I aimed to capture the sleek power of this Suzuki Hayabusa against a natural backdrop, reflecting the freedom and passion of the rider.
For commercial jewelry photography, the details are everything. This close up lifestyle shot focuses on how these delicate rings and necklace look on the skin, creating an image that is both aspirational and relatable for customers.
This is a clean and elegant e-commerce product shot, styled to highlight the delicate design of these butterfly necklaces. The soft lavender background and natural elements make the jewelry pop, perfect for an online catalog.
I love creating atmospheric and conceptual shots like this one from the NAVATAAR Fashion Show. The use of smoke and dramatic lighting adds a layer of tradition and mystique to this beautiful ethnic attire.
About this collection
When I pick up my camera, I am not just looking for a shot, but for the energy behind it. Whether I am navigating the chaotic thrill of a fashion show, framing a product for a brand, or catching a candid laugh at a Sangeet, my goal is to make the image feel as real as the moment itself. I keep my approach collaborative and simple, so if you are planning a shoot, I would love to hear what kind of vibe you want to create.
How I Approach My Work
I believe that a great photo comes from having a good attitude. In Kannada, we say 'Olleya manobhavavullavarige lokavella oleyadagi kanuttade', and I try to bring that outlook to every location I visit in Bangalore. Photography is my happy place, which means I approach every assignment with genuine excitement rather than just checking boxes.
What I Capture
My work spans across different styles because I love the variety.
- Event & Social Coverage: From the high-energy dances at a Sangeet to corporate milestones, I focus on capturing the in-between moments that tell the real story of the event. I am comfortable with stage lighting and dynamic environments.
- Fashion & Commercial: I collaborate closely with makeup artists, designers, and stylists. Whether it is a fashion runway show, an apparel shoot, or high-end jewelry photography, I pay attention to the textures, fabric, and poses to make the product stand out.
- Conceptual Portraits: I enjoy creating moody, thoughtful portraits, often using props or natural lighting to add depth. These are perfect for portfolios or just documenting a specific look.
Why Work With Me?
If you are looking for a photographer who blends into the background to capture raw emotions but can also step in to direct a polished brand shoot, we should talk. My packages are straightforward. For events, I provide signature color-corrected photos and highlight reels that you can actually share. For brand catalogs, I focus on retouching and detail so your products look sharp on Instagram or your e-commerce site.
I am based in Bangalore and travel throughout the city. Let me know what you have in mind, and we can figure out the best approach to capture it.
