Faire La Noce for Jute Magazine

I did this shoot a while back. It was probably one of the hardest to get published. Just didn't understand why. I am so glad it is finally out! This team and I worked super hard for these pictures. Learnt so much in this shoot. It was the first time ever I had 23 people working on a shoot. It was definitely a day to remember. Lots of stories. Thank you team for all you effort. I know your frustration but it is finally here.

Today, I had a wonderful opportunity to work with my super team again. I just have to say I love working with Kenneth Barlis designs. Its high fashion couture and I had the chance to take the shoot based on ideas I came up with and make up and hair help from Chaya (claudia nunez). I also want to add that this was the first official Canon 5D mark III shoot. It was so exciting. Here are some behind the scenes shots:

So happy to say, after a long pause, I am back in full swing. Here is an editorial I shot in October for December issue of Jute Magazine. The reason this shoot came through was for the location. Its an old watch tower near Dana Point on Victoria Beach-Laguna Beach. It makes for a great castle feel and gives a romantic look. I love capturing such beautiful architecture and tell a story with it. Here is my story of a young princess who is going to be the White Queen.  The White Queen is a major part of the book: Alice in Wonderland. Here I made the character more of a younger version. Check out the editorial on the link and please do share your thoughts. 

Thank you

VOGUE it!

Summer's Play

Model: Kayla Cashman (my precious :P)

Make up: Lauren

Hair: Katherine

Photography: Pavithra (me)

About a year ago - April 22nd of 2011 - I photographed Kayla Cashman. I always think of her as my lucky charm because she was the first girl I shot an editorial with and we got it published: Heritage of Feathers in Racing Minds Magazine. It really feels like I have grown this past year. It is the first shot that got published in Vogue. Now I can say I got VOGUE-d! :] Here is the pictures and with the Vogue water mark (love!).

Avant Garde Photoshoot

These are the results from the Avant Garde styled shoot on Jan 7th, 2012. I had just returned from India a day earlier and it was nice to know that I was doing a shoot with wonderful artists from San Diego. Check out these pictures and cant wait to share them published in G.O.O.D.S Magazine.

Cinemagraph: My dog Lotus

I tried my first Cinemagraph today and I am totally in love with how it came out. If cinema meets photography it just equals awesome and that awesome is Gif images. Here is my wonderful model - my puppy Lotus posing for me. Definitely going to do more of Cinemagraphs! :]

A Wild Rose in the Garden

This was a Photoshoot I did last month for a wonderful local designer: Carolina Cecena. The location wasn't set till the very last day. Carolina requested a flowery spot for her clothes but the only problem was that it was no longer spring and most of the blooms/flowers were dried up or gone. I began googling for flowers that have late blooms and came across only two: Bougainvillea and Roses. Found this wonderful garden in Downtown San Diego that made this shoot so much fun to work at. We had two gorgeous models: Beth and Waverly working the beautiful designs. And it was a breeze to shoot them. The only problem was that we were working in a public park and there were lots of tourists coming in our shots. And of course coming to ask us what we were doing (which is always fun!). Here is the first series of the final shots:

A Heritage of Feathers

I have always wanted to photograph Editorial magazine style. I have assisted many photographers in that but doing this for myself as a portfolio builder was too much fun! I had two wonderful people working with me: a talented MUA/Hair stylist Cydney Hernandez and a wonderful Model Kayla Cashman. The idea/inspiration for this shoot was based off of Native Indian head wear. It took us about 2 hours to get the shots we wanted and I used a very random location with a wonderful tree for most of the pretty shots. Will share more pictures in a different post but here are the pictures in a pdf magazine format.
