Portrait studio

-

It’s the age of candid shots, but there is a certain charm to perfectly planned studio pictures, especially if they look like a painting. If you’ve admired the portraits of the erstwhile royalty on the walls of palaces, head to the Portrait Studio to get your own picture perfect photograph. What’s special about this 15-year-old studio on East Street is that they turn family portraits into an heirloom. Specialist­s in family portraitur­e, owners Aunali Dhariwal and son Taaha have devised a procedure which gives a photograph the look and feel of a canvas painting. Taaha will advice you to turn up in your best attire, because, after all, the portrait will bag a place of pride in your home. Once he shoots your picture with his high-end Hasselblad camera, it’s printed on canvas and treated with lacquer to give it the effect of a painting. And all it takes is five days after you’ve selected the picture. So, make sure, you fix an appointmen­t with Taaha and take home a framed photograph-painting. At East Street, Camp Tel 26133152
