Photography for Kids – A fun and creative workshop on weekends
Develop your child’s creative thinking and self-expression I think you’d agree with me when I say creativity and self-expression are the secret ingredients for excellence, be it at school, work, or life in general. Kids are a power-house of energy (both mental & physical), which when invested in the right direction, they bloom with confidence and turn into enterprising/mindful adults. “Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up” – Pablo Picasso Like…
Jungle-Themed Cake Smash Shoot
First Birthday Cake Smash Shoot Baby Atharv celebrated his first birthday in a mini jungle full of fun! Baby Atharv and his parents shifted to India from the US post worldwide lockdown. His birthday was just around the corner and papa Anish really wanted to make it memorable but couldn't risk throwing a birthday party. First birthday cake smash sessions is a common concept in the west, and something papa Anish really wanted to get done but was worried due to COVID. Since I specialize in home…
Baby Photoshoot With Parents
We take photos as a return ticket to the moment otherwise gone How true is this when it comes to documenting the growth of families. Not only the children but the parents are also growing and I love photographing this growth. Often parents reach out to me only for a baby session and I always suggest them to go for a family session. Babies are the happiest and most comfortable when surrounded by their people. Photographing families has always been my favorite subject. Winters were setting in…
Cake Smash Photoshoot of Twins
Clicking twins have always been challenging and fun. I love clicking babies at the comfort of their home and with twins it gets a lot easier. This cake smash shoot is special and pretty interesting for 3 reasons: Mommy always wanted a 🦄 theme for her twinnies; even their first birthday theme was this! We did this session during their dinner time, imagine! 😅 While Ariv literally smashed the hell out of the cake, Aaira didn't even go close to it; no wonder they say some twins are exact…
Family Portraits – Home Session
A family portrait session at home – loads of fun and making memories for life! When Nishikant called in for a family session, it was a birthday gift for his wife Sandhya. He was very clear what he wanted from the shoot – a relaxed session at home making the best of memories for them to cherish for life. And home shoots are my forever favourite! As it's all about a family's happy space. A familiar environment puts the family at ease making the session a super comfortable one for all. Did…
First Birthday Shoot – Cake Smash
Every birthday counts, specially the first. Why not let the little one rummage an entire cake to themselves? Let them smash some cake! On this cake smash Demaira's mom wanted something that matched with the baby's personality and we all agreed upon the theme of Minnie Mouse, who's as chirpy and active as her. That's one thing I always keep in mind when finalizing a theme, ensuring that it aligns with the baby's personality and likes/dislikes. I usually keep my set ups neat with few props so…
Newborn Photography – Home Session
Words cannot express the joy of a new life, and when it's the first born in the house, everything about the little bundle of joy is precious. A little bit of heaven just came down to earth ✨
Unicorn Themed Cake Smash Session
Babies are a curious bunch, put them in front of a cake and sit back to witness all the fun while the photographer captures these adorable, anxious and yummy moments with the camera. Sounds like a plan to celebrate your little one's first birthday, isn't it? :) :) Baby Norah aka Chuku's mommy & daddy drove down all the way from Chandigarh to get their little one clicked for her first birthday. And I must admit that she was a super-thrilled and active baby throughout the session. More than…
Fine Art Portraits – Family Session
Family portraits are important; they are the most touchable piece of your legacy. People often ask me about the right time and age to get their family pictures done and I always say it's the moment you think it is, "That's The Right Time!". The Gupta’s just completed 10 years of their togetherness and realized there was no better way to celebrate and cherish the occasion than a family portrait photo-shoot. I have always loved capturing familial bonds in fine art portraits in my own distinctive…
Minnie Mouse Themed Cake Smash Session
Cake Smash Photoshoots are an amazing memory of your little one’s first birthday. A series of images capturing your baby’s first encounter with the cake, where they are all excited, confused, mesmerized – all at the same time! The best part - you not only get to witness it all but also preserve it as a great memory. This Cake Smash Session of Baby Aditha is by far the cutest that I have photographed. Like always, I spoke to her parents about her likes and dislikes before we finalised the…
Fine Art Family Portraits
Taking family photographs is not just clicking a group of people, it is much more than that. It's about capturing the bond, emotions and legacy of a family to leave behind. I have always loved clicking people, from all backgrounds and age groups, and realised that they begin to glow and look even more beautiful when around their own people (family/friends). Such an example is the Manns. I was contacted by the Mann Family for this session as their daughter was leaving India for…
Fairy Themed Cake Smash Session
Every parent wants to make their baby’s first birthday special and there's nothing like celebrating it with smashing of some yummy cake. This fairy-themed cake smash had been on my mind ever since I got this backdrop painted. And then, baby Harshali turned one! Being just the perfect subject dressed beautifully, she posed with a little fairy’s grace for this cake smash session. 😊 Looking at the pictures I feel, it can’t get any cuter than this! I always try to do something different in…
Maternity Silhouette Photography
And everything in sight faded down to these *BEAUTIFUL SILHOUETTES*. Silhouettes have always intrigued me, they are like an unspoken poetry that needs to be read between the lines. Similarly, this maternity session turned out to be a beautiful poetry of love, wait and happiness for the arrival of a new life. I had an amazing time clicking this adorable mommy-daddy duo. Both doctors by profession, with mommy being a gynaecologist herself, were looking for a maternity shoot for their memories.…
Fine Art Maternity Photography
I love creating memories, capturing the fine details of a moment in its true essence and am always trying something new in all my shoots. This fine art maternity photography session was all about capturing the joy of a new life that was about to arrive soon. In this maternity session I experimented a little away from my usual love for the whites and pastels. I had been wanting to do such a vintage session and Kanika & Kavish were not only exuberant parents-to-be but also posed perfectly…
Jungle Themed Cake Smash Session
Little Ruhaan turned one today and his mommy and daddy are the happiest!! This jungle-themed indoor cake smash was fun, cute and yummy on tummy. I remember how worried his mommy was when she had called about 10 days back to finalise on a photographer for his pre-birthday shoot. Cant blame her, after all first birthdays are really special and no less than a grand celebration for their families. Every time I plan a cake smash session, I always consult on the likes and dislikes of the baby with…
Importance and Art of Family Portrait Photography
Importance of Family Portraits In my childhood I loved looking at the old photos of my family. I would spend hours imagining what it was like to live back those days. It gave me a sense of pride and connection to the past and part of my family that is no longer touchable. I am so grateful that my grandparents gave me a gift of history by taking this family portrait. This is the only way we grandchildren will know what it was like to live in those years and how our grandparents looked at the age…
Vedanshi’s Baby Photography Session
Vedanshi’s Mom and I had been planning this shoot ever since she was in her mommy’s tummy. We planned several times but couldn’t do a maternity shoot due to certain reasons. Thus we were even more geared up for a baby session which eventually happened in the third month. The baby’s mommy was enthusiastic and full of energy despite being hard pressed for time. Even though daddy was travelling extensively we finally planned it! Both the mother and daughter were divas in front of the camera.…

Candid Family Portrait Session @ Home
It's winters and I was visiting my mom when over a cup of tea I asked her to dig out the old family albums. I love how these picture albums preserve the moments, experiences and generations. Flipping the leaves of the album I saw an image of my mom when she was a baby in black & white and our family portrait in color. We all have got such images clicked down the generations. Nothing is more beautiful than these memories. Candid Family Portrait Photography This family portrait session with…
