My Collections
My collections are designed to feel calm, intentional, and story-driven. From start to finish, the focus is on creating space for you to be present while I document in a natural, cinematic way. I’ll guide you when needed, but I prioritize moments that unfold organically, so your images feel honest, emotional, and true to you. Each collection is thoughtfully crafted to reflect your story and preserve it in a way that feels timeless.

Testimonials
"Shruthi was simply AMAZING. It was quick & easy to get comfortable in front of the camera. Even as a camera shy couple, we felt comfortable & confident when working with Shruthi. It was a fun and easy session. She would guide us on how to pose while also being very respectful and helpful. It was amazing seeing her vision come to life. Constantly reassured us even when there were moments where we felt unsure if we were posing correctly. Would 100% recommend working with Shruthi. My dream engagement shoot literally came true working with her. The time passed by so quick, it felt like just another fun date with my fiancé. The end results were just breathtaking"

Her creativity, professionalism, and warm, approachable personality made the whole experience so enjoyable.

Rebecca
Testimonials
"I had the BEST experience working with Shruthi. She made the entire shoot feel so easy and comfortable, and her eye for detail is unreal. My partner and I are usually awkward in front of the camera, but she gave great direction and made it feel fun instead of stressful. The photos turned out absolutely stunning—dreamy, natural, and better than I could’ve imagined. I’m so grateful and would recommend her to anyone looking for beautiful photos and a great experience."
Jess & Kellen
Testimonials
"Shruthi is a seriously talented photographer in the PDX area. ✨ She shot solo portraits of me at Laurelhurst Park and they turned out so gorgeous! Before the session, she sent over a Pinterest board for inspiration and we collaborated on the direction and editing style, which made everything feel aligned.
She was on time, super friendly, and easy to work with. During the shoot, she gave great movement cues that made the photos feel natural and dynamic instead of stiff. The whole session flowed really smoothly.
I’m obsessed with how the photos turned out and would absolutely work with her again. Highly recommend if you’re looking for beautiful, thoughtfully shot portraits in Portland!"
Zoe
Testimonials
"Shruthi is such a joy to be around, and her vision behind the camera is incredible. We had so much fun collaborating during our mini Valentine’s Day shoot! Thank you Shruthi"

FAQ
What is the booking process like?
To book, simply fill out the inquiry form on my website! Once we confirm availability, a signed contract and a 50% non-refundable retainer are required to officially reserve your date.
How long is my session and what’s included in my session?
Each session is usually 60 minutes (includes about 45 minute shoot time, planning/scouting and walking if needed), unless otherwise specified. All sessions include a thoughtfully guided experience, professionally edited images and an online gallery for easy viewing and downloading, with print options available. Specific inclusions vary by session type and can be found on the Investment page and under the Add-ons Section.
I'm nervous about posing! Do you help?
Yes, absolutely! I provide gentle guidance throughout the session so you never feel awkward or unsure. My goal is for your photos to feel natural, effortless, and true to you.
What should we wear for our session?
I recommend wearing outfits that feel comfortable and true to you. Neutral tones, soft textures, and coordinating colors (rather than matching exactly) tend to photograph beautifully. Avoid large logos or bold patterns, and choose pieces you feel confident moving in. Flowy clothing especially photographs well.
What happens if it rains or weather changes?
If weather conditions aren’t ideal (heavy rain, strong winds, extreme temperatures), we can reschedule or adjust the location. We’ll communicate and make a plan together based on conditions closer to your session date.
How far in advance should we book?
I recommend booking 2–4 weeks in advance for portrait and couples sessions. Proposals, elopements, and weddings should be booked as early as possible (at least 1-2 months ahead of time) to ensure availability.
Do you travel for photoshoots?
Yes! I’m based in Portland, Oregon and am available for travel. Sessions within the Portland metro area are included, and travel outside the area may require an additional travel fee depending on location.
Can we add more time or a second location?
Yes! Additional time, second locations, outfit changes, and other add-ons are available. You can view all options on the Investment page or ask me directly.
How long does it take to get our photos?
Average turnaround time is 4-6 weeks for most photos and about 6-8 weeks for weddings. You’ll receive a online gallery via email once your images are ready.
Do you offer albums or prints?
Your online gallery, delivered via email, includes access to a built-in print store if you’re interested in ordering physical prints. Any profit from print sales goes directly to me, minus printing, shipping, and payment processing fees.
Are deposits refundable or transferable?
The 50% retainer is non-refundable and secures your date. If you need to reschedule due to unforeseen circumstances, I’ll do my best to accommodate based on availability. In the event of an emergency or sickness on my end that prevents rescheduling, the retainer will be fully refunded.
