This is the kind of timeless portrait I love to create. The focus is on the rich details of the traditional saree, the intricate jewelry, and the model's confident expression, all brought to life with soft, natural lighting.
I use bold colors and strong compositions to make fashion portraits pop. This shot against a vivid red wall in Bangalore shows how an urban environment can become a dynamic studio for creating high-impact images.
In the studio, I play with light and shadow to create drama and mood. This portrait uses a single light source to sculpt the model's features and highlight the texture of her dress, resulting in a powerful and elegant look.
I collaborate with designers to create stunning lookbook images. This full-length shot showcases a beautiful traditional lehenga, capturing the flow of the fabric and the intricate details of the design in a natural outdoor setting.
For influencers and brands, I create content that stands out. This night shoot uses the ambient light of city signs to create a cool, modern vibe perfect for a street style portfolio.
Capturing the grace of cultural art forms is a passion of mine. This portrait of a Mohiniyattam dancer shows the elegance of the pose and the beauty of the traditional costume in an authentic architectural setting.
A great portrait is about attitude and story. This outdoor shoot with a Thar jeep adds a rugged, adventurous element to the fashion portrait, creating a compelling lifestyle image.

About Fashion & Portrait Photography

I’m a portrait and fashion photographer based in Bangalore, and honestly, I’m not the chatty type. I let my camera do the talking. My thing is creating images that have a story and a bit of attitude, whether it’s a sharp actor portfolio or a dramatic saree portrait.

What I Shoot

  • Model and actor portfolios: clean headshots and full-body shots for fresh, real profiles
  • Content for influencers: street style, lifestyle, or anything that pops on your Insta
  • Lookbook/editorial: magazine-style stuff for brands or your own creative vision
  • Traditional wear: love shooting classic Indian looks, like sarees and lehengas

The Style

You tell me the vibe you want - moody street, minimal studio, or something in-between. I use both natural and studio lights, and play around with shadows, so the final photo always feels unique. My aim? To make you look like yourself, but on your best day.

How It Works

Most of my shoots happen around Bangalore - places like Church Street or in proper studios if you want that polished look. If you need help with makeup, I’ve got a few talented MUAs I work with. You can bring your own folks too. I use Nikon mirrorless gear, but honestly, it’s your personality and the story we build that matter most.
