About Editorial & Couple Portrait Sessions
My Take on Editorial Portraits
I see every couple as their own story, so I try to capture that vibe, not just faces. My sessions are for anyone who wants their love photographed with a bit of drama - think magazine-style couple portraits, not just the usual wedding snaps.
What I Offer
- Pre-wedding and engagement shoots that are laid-back or styled, at spots you love or with a full-on editorial look.
- Post-wedding sessions where you can dress up again, go big with creative ideas - there's no rush and no rules here, I want you to feel free.
- I also shoot intimate elopement portraits, mostly for folks who want something simple and raw, sometimes in epic locations.
How I Shoot
Modern and clean is my thing. I go for those bold light and shadow moments, mix up classic black & white shots, and always try to get a mix of posed and real, candid stuff. I’ll guide you but also let you just be - sometimes the best photo happens in between.
Locations & Team
Based in Mumbai and Pune but I travel for shoots everywhere - Udaipur, London, Bali, wherever your story takes you. My mom helps with styling, and for bigger shoots I pull in a solid team of makeup, hair, and planning folks so you look and feel your best.
Not every shoot is super glamorous, sometimes things get unpredictable - but that’s real life, and I think that’s what makes the photos special.
