About Pre-Wedding & Proposal Shoots
What We Capture
I believe love is best shown in the small moments - the way you look at each other, the silly jokes, the quiet hugs. My shoots are all about catching those real feelings, not just pretty faces or fancy clothes. Energy always wins over outfits. If you’re awkward in front of the camera, that’s actually perfect - I want you to be yourself.
How We Work
Before anything, I sit down with you and listen to your story. How you met, what makes you laugh, the ups and downs - all of it. The more I know, the more your photos feel like you. No stiff poses, no fake smiles. I try to make the shoot feel like a ghar ki shaadi (family wedding) - relaxed, fun, and full of emotion.
Pre-Wedding & Proposal Shoots
- Destination engagement shoot is my jam. I’ve shot in deserts, vineyards, waterfalls, city streets - over 11 countries. The backdrop is epic, but your connection is always the focus.
- Cinematic pre-wedding film: Not just a montage, but a short movie about your relationship. I use drones, creative edits, and your real moments to make something you’ll want to watch again and again.
- Surprise proposal photography: I know how to stay hidden and catch the shock, the tears, and the laughter. Sometimes I even include interviews to tell the full story.
All Love Stories Welcome
I celebrate every kind of love. If you want your story told honestly and artistically, I’m here for it.

My Story
Hey, we’re Vrinda and Shristi - VS Studio. 11 years, 500 weddings, 11+ countries, but honestly, we’re not counting. We’re chasing the real stuff. Like a nanu ka dupatta (grandmom's scarf), or that weird song only you two get. We started this for the messy, the happy tears, the non-Pinterest love. Shristi’s wedding was our own ‘ghar ki shaadi’. That’s when it hit us - you’re not just clients, you’re the story. We just frame it.
My Work
What We Do - Luxury destination wedding photography, candid wedding moments, cinematic wedding films, and pre-wedding shoots, Mumbai and Kolkata but we travel anywhere.
Unposed by VS Studio - We don’t do stiff poses. We catch the real, in-between bits - the laughs, the pep talks, the glances.
The Mood Matters - Outfits are cool, but your vibe? That’s gold. Sometimes the best light is just a feeling.
Let Us In - Tell us your story, your inside jokes, your fav song. We even help with outfits - comfort shows.
Main Character Energy - You’re the lead. We frame you as you are, breaking traditions or making new ones.
