We plan for about 4-5 hours, letting you change outfits up to three times so we get both casual, fun looks and those timeless ethnic shots that match the vibe of your upcoming wedding. My approach to pre-wedding photography is simple: I want you to feel like yourself. We start by picking a location that means something to you—maybe a quiet walk through Malleshwaram, a favourite cafe, or the open spaces of a local park. Because I work with a documentary style, I don't believe in forced, stiff posing. Instead, we move, walk, and talk, and I capture the moments in between. ### Why a Pre-Wedding Shoot Matters Think of this as a dry run. It’s the perfect time to get comfortable in front of the lens before the wedding day chaos. It’s also when we get to know each other, so by the time your big day arrives, I’m just another friend with a camera rather than a stranger. ### What to Expect * **Planning & Mood Boards:** We don't just show up and shoot. We’ll chat beforehand about what you like—whether you want a cinematic feel, something candid and raw, or a mix of both. * **Outfit Changes:** With 3 outfit changes included, we can shift from casual, candid street photography to more formal, artistic portraits. * **The Workflow:** I shoot with Canon EOS R-series mirrorless gear, which allows me to work quickly and quietly, especially in crowded outdoor locations. We don't need a massive set to make magic. Sometimes, the best shots happen just by walking down a street, holding hands, and sharing a laugh. If you're looking for artistic couple portraits that feel honest rather than over-produced, let's start planning. ## About SowmyaPhotography & Films I’m Sowmya.
