Nithya Rajkumar
Licensed Photographer & Photography Mentor
Hello there!
Photography, for me, is all about capturing the unique essence of people. It brings me immense joy to see the excitement and happiness of my clients when they receive their photographs.
I specialize in lifestyle portraits (that means no rigid studios), and follow a guided yet natural style of photography combining the unique spirit & natural beauty of each person and their environment to create authentic, expressive images.
My sessions are fun & relaxed — whether it is an at home session, in your office setting or at a beautiful outdoor location in UAE offering a comfortable & memorable experience for my clients.
Be it capturing powerful headshot images for your business, a little miracle in your baby bump, photographing your loved ones; its always been about capturing images to cherish for a long time.
As an experienced retail brand & product expert, I help entrepreneurs & small businesses build their online presence through personal branding portraits & professional head shots. I combine my years of branding, styling, color understanding into these shoots. I have also been supporting women run small businesses in the UAE with product photography. I combine my work experience in branding, styling, color understanding into these shoots.
As a mother of two lovely daughters, it brings me great joy to make a fellow mom’s photo wish come true. I love capturing her beautiful family, photographing the special life moments & the special little people in her life. I simply love children and I bring along my cheerful & super patient self to every family & kids shoot.
PURPOSEFUL PHOTOGRAPHY: I believe photography has the power to inspire change and tell stories that matter.
Over the years, I have used my lens as a tool for various socially impactful projects that celebrate the essence of people and their love connections. Through these projects, I have witnessed how photography as a tool can connect hearts, build awareness, and give voice to untold stories. It’s my way of giving back — of using art to make a difference, one image at a time.
'PINKDAYTOSHINE'
Capturing portraits and stories of Hope, Resilience and Positivity.
In 2018, I founded #PinkDayToShine, a pro bono project dedicated to celebrating and honoring breast cancer warriors. This deeply personal initiative captures the strength, resilience, and spirit of women who never let cancer dim their light — letting their inner radiance shine through every photograph.What began as a small tribute has now grown into a meaningful annual campaign, thanks to the courage of the remarkable women who came forward and the unwavering support of Nikon Middle East and other compassionate brands and partners across the UAE.
Special People Big Hearts Project
I specialize in photographing children with special needs — This initiative is about capturing children as seen through a mother’s eyes — beyond labels and spectrums. Over the years, I have had the privilege of working with many incredible children and families, and each session has been a reminder of pure love and resilience. This project is dedicated to my best friend’s sister Akku who is born with a genetic condition. To honor this cause close to my heart, I offer a special discounted package for “special moms” throughout the year.
