A Legacy Illuminated

A name born from love, carried forward in light

Mihira isn't just a name — it's a story carried forward. It was the pen name of acclaimed photographer Chandrasekhar Singh's late father — a writer whose words captured emotion the way his son now captures light.

Naming the studio Mihira was Chandrasekhar's way of continuing that lineage of storytelling — this time, through portraits that speak where words fall short.

Every family that steps into Mihira becomes part of that legacy of love, laughter, and light passed through generations. Any photoshoot at Mihira is a celebration. A reunion. A quiet hour away from the noise — where you rediscover what truly matters.

"Mihira was the pen name of our Founder's father — a writer who believed stories, told with honesty, could outlive time."

"In today's fast-moving world, families rarely get the chance to truly pause — to look at each other, laugh together, and feel that quiet warmth that says: this is home."

What We Believe

The pause that
changes everything

In today's fast-moving world, families rarely get the chance to truly pause — to look at each other, laugh together, and feel that quiet warmth that says this is home.

Mihira Studios was born to create that pause. Not just through the lens, but through the experience itself — the gentle direction, the laughter coaxed from a shy grandparent, the moment a toddler forgets the camera exists.

We schedule one family per day because your story deserves the whole day. Our complete attention. No rush. No compromise. Just artistry, patience, and love.
