I'm Shruti — a female freelance photographer based in Dubai Marina with 15+ years behind the camera. I photograph weddings of every kind across the UAE — civil ceremonies, intimate gatherings, multicultural celebrations, and multi-day cultural events — from intimate civil ceremonies to multi-day functions with mehendi, sangeet, baraat and reception. Ladies-only access included.
A mix of bridal portraits, couple work, and ritual moments from weddings and pre-wedding shoots across the UAE. Tap any frame to view larger.
Let's discuss your wedding on WhatsApp.
Ladies' sangeet, mehendi, bridal getting-ready, ladies-only segments of nikah, baby-shower add-ons — I'm welcome where male photographers are quietly asked to skip. For traditional families, this is usually the deciding factor.
Mehendi, haldi, sangeet, baraat, varmala, pheras, vidaai, nikah, nikkah-naama, walima — I know which moment matters and where to stand. You won't have to explain rituals to me on the day.
Aunts, uncles and grandparents settle in immediately when the direction sounds familiar. I switch between Hindi and English without missing a beat — your family portraits won't feel stiff.
15+ years on the ground. I know the venues, the planners, the makeup artists, the permit quirks. No flown-in surprises — gear backup is in my car, not in another country.
You hire me, you get me. Not a junior on the day, not a swap-out the night before, not a packaged team that's never met. The same person who answers your first WhatsApp shoots your wedding.
15+ years and 500+ sessions. A small set of teaser images within a week or so. Full edited wedding gallery in 4-6 weeks. I'll give you a clear timeline when we book — and I'll keep you posted.

A selection from clients who booked me for Indian family events, maternity, pre-wedding and at-home sessions — the same cultural sensitivity carries into wedding work.
"We had a great experience with Shruti Jain for our Indian-style Godh Bharai (baby shower). She beautifully captured the emotions, rituals, and candid moments with great attention to detail. Very professional, patient, and easy to work with. The photos turned out vibrant and full of life. Highly recommend her for Indian family functions and celebrations!"Gaurav Nawal · Local Guide · Indian family function
"My wife & I availed Shruti's services for a photoshoot in Dubai. The entire experience was a breeze right from the initial conversations to the final delivery of pictures. Shruti was extremely accommodative to all our requirements & requests. She went out of the way to make this process very smooth for us. We really liked the final pictures. The delivery was very well within our expected timeline as well."Ayush Bajaj · Indian couple, Dubai
"Shruti did our photoshoot in Dubai and the pictures came out lovely! She was very friendly and easy to work with and we loved the location suggested by her. Highly recommend!"Payal Mahuvakar · Indian client, Dubai
"Shruti is an amazing photographer. She is very punctual and came to the committed place absolutely on time. She is completely professional, calm, cool, patient and very much helping during the photoshoot. Very much adjusting as she was adjusting with my 4 year old daughter all the time. Thank you so much Shruti for the beautiful photos."Ankit Shrivastava · Indian family, Dubai
Want to be the next? Let's discuss on WhatsApp.
Five steps. No mystery, no awkward back-and-forth. Weddings are big — I keep the process clear.
Send me your wedding date, venue, and which functions you want covered. I'll usually reply within an hour and confirm availability the same day.
I'll send a coverage plan that maps to your wedding shape — half-day, full-day, multi-day — along with a quote. We talk through anything you want adjusted before booking.
A few weeks before the wedding we go through your timeline, family shot list, vendor contacts, and any specific moments you want captured. Optional venue visit if it helps.
I arrive ahead of the call time to scout light and meet your family. Quietly cover every ritual, run the family-shot list efficiently after the ceremony, stay until the moments you care about are captured.
A small set of teaser images within a week or so. Full edited wedding gallery in 4-6 weeks, delivered as a private download link you can share with family. Weddings are bigger than other sessions — I'd rather give you a realistic timeline than a rushed promise.
Let's get your date in. Message me.
Any other questions? Just ask on WhatsApp.
A wedding is the one shoot day that can't be redone. The plates can be re-fired, the cake can be re-baked — the photographs are the only thing that survives the day exactly as it was. That's the responsibility I take on when I'm hired for a wedding, and it's the reason I'm honest about what I can and can't promise.
I'm Shruti Jain, a female freelance photographer based in Dubai Marina with 15+ years and 500+ sessions behind me. I shoot weddings carefully and selectively — most months I'll take one or two so I can give each couple my full attention. My background is in Indian-family and multicultural work in Dubai, which means cultural fluency comes naturally: I know which moment matters in a haldi, when to be invisible at the nikah, and why grandma needs to be in the centre of the family portrait. I direct in Hindi or English, whichever helps your family relax.
A few practical notes on what to expect: I shoot photography only (not video — happy to recommend UAE videographers I trust); I deliver the full edited gallery in 4-6 weeks with teaser images within a week; my access to ladies-only functions is the most common reason traditional families book me. If any of that lines up with what you're looking for, the next step is a WhatsApp message with your date and venue.
Send a few details: date, venue, which functions you want covered. I usually respond within an hour on WhatsApp.
