About Event & Celebration Photography
Why I Do What I Do
The camera is honestly my comfort zone. When I’m behind it, I just feel at home. For me, it’s not about clicking pictures, it’s about connecting with people and catching those real, raw feelings. I’m always grateful when families trust me with their big days.
My Style
I don’t believe in stiff, awkward poses. I want to catch the real stuff - the laughter that just bursts out, the tears that sneak up, those quiet glances nobody else notices. My thing is emotional event storytelling, not just pretty pictures. Being a female photographer, I know how to make people feel comfortable, especially during intimate functions like Haldi, Mehendi, or baby shoots.
What I Love Shooting
I’m all about Indian festival photo sessions and family gatherings. Some of my favorites:
- Maharashtrian Munj (Thread Ceremony): I know the rituals, the fun, and the family bonds that matter.
- Festivals: Diwali with all the faral and diyas, Durga Puja’s red-and-white sarees, Navratri’s garba energy, Ganpati’s devotion, Makar Sankrant for newlyweds, and Janmashtami with little Kanhas.
- Family events: Haldi, Mehendi, engagements, and those moments when everyone’s just being themselves.
How I Work
You enjoy your day, I’ll handle the rest. I use pro Sony and Nikon gear, so whether it’s a dark hall or a sunny garden, your photos will look great. I’m based in Navi Mumbai, but I travel all over Maharashtra and beyond for the right story.

My Story
Hi, I’m Swarali. Sometimes I wonder if I’m doing things right, but then I grab my camera and the world just gets quiet. My first big event was my cousin’s munj. Dipu kaku just trusted me, and that meant a lot. I love finding stories in small things - like an old aaji selling flowers, her smile brighter than the flowers. खरंच, आनंद छोट्या गोष्टींत आहे (Truly, happiness is in small things).
My Work
What I shoot - Weddings, events, Maharashtrian traditions, portraits, baby and maternity shoots, thread ceremonies, and more. I travel anywhere for a good story.
How I shoot - You get real moments - candid event photography, happy tears, genuine laughter. I want you to feel at home, like family.
Special love for traditions - Maharashtrian wedding photography, munj, haldi, Ganpati, but also open to other cultures and colourful festivals. I just love capturing feelings.
