Verma, who started photography eight years ago, is known for capturing candid moments that reflect strong bonding. Follower of a classic, storytelling style, she firmly believes that a moment of togetherness clicked in a fun, well-lit and bright environment becomes unique and timeless. It tells a story that exudes positive vibes and becomes a work of art.

“Photographing siblings where one is a newborn is extremely challenging. Getting the correct expression of both in one frame is really very difficult. In this shoot, I had a bubbly, charming two-year old girl who had accompanied her brother and loved being around him. I made the little boy sleep on the fur and pillow, and asked the big sis if she wanted to hold him or lie down with him. She was super excited as I placed him on her lap. Kids of her age usually do not want to sit for photos. Giving her a choice did the trick,” says Verma.
