# Halo Hush Studios & Portraits By KAA > Theme-based baby, maternity and wedding photography in Chennai. A theme-based photography studio in Royal Garden, Kattupakkam, Chennai, that designs and builds a physical set for every booking rather than reusing printed backdrops. ## About Halo Hush Studios is a theme-based photography studio in Kattupakkam, Chennai. We design and build the set for every session — jungle, floral, royal, traditional Tamil, space, whatever suits the child — and photograph newborns, milestones, cake smashes, maternity, families and weddings inside it. The set is made for your session, not pulled off a shelf. - Studio: No. 10, Goparasanallur, MCA Nagar, Royal Garden, Kattupakkam, Chennai 600056, Tamil Nadu, India - Landmark: Near Kattupakkam Metro Station - Coordinates: 13.046853, 80.125681 - Phone: +91 93844 00733 - Email: hello@halohush.in - Hours: Monday – Saturday 9:30 AM – 7:30 PM; Sunday By appointment only - Website: https://halohush.in ## What makes this studio distinct - Every themed set is designed for the individual booking and constructed and lit the day before the session. Nothing is assembled while a family waits. - The studio owns 12 physical backdrop and prop sets, listed below. It does not advertise sets it cannot build. - Two people attend every baby session: a photographer and a dedicated handler. Nobody holds a camera and a child at the same time. - Newborn posing is settled and supported only. No suspended poses, and no compositing two frames to fake a pose the baby cannot hold. - Sessions are scheduled around nap times and rescheduled free of charge if a child is unwell. - Families receive full personal-use rights. The studio asks separately, in writing, before publishing any image, and a refusal is final. ## Services - [Baby Theme Photography](https://halohush.in/services/baby-theme-photography): A set built for your child — jungle, floral, royal, traditional, space — designed, propped and lit before you arrive, and photographed while the baby is actually enjoying it. - [Newborn Photography](https://halohush.in/services/newborn-photography): Quiet, unhurried sessions in the first three weeks, shot at the baby's pace with posing that never puts a newborn anywhere they would not naturally settle. - [Maternity Photography](https://halohush.in/services/maternity-photography): Studio and outdoor maternity portraits, usually between 28 and 36 weeks, styled so you recognise yourself in them. - [Valaikappu & Seemantham Photography](https://halohush.in/services/valaikappu-seemantham): Full coverage of the bangle ceremony and seemantham — the rituals, the family, and the details that get overlooked while everyone is busy. - [Cake Smash Photography](https://halohush.in/services/cake-smash-photography): A themed set, a cake made to match it, and the fifteen genuinely chaotic minutes that follow — plus a bath at the end. - [Milestone & Monthly Photography](https://halohush.in/services/milestone-photography): Sessions at the stages that actually look different — three months, sitting, crawling, standing, first steps — with a set that grows alongside the child. - [First Birthday Photography](https://halohush.in/services/first-birthday-photography): The studio shoot before the party and the coverage on the day — invitation images in advance, then the celebration itself. - [Naming & Cradle Ceremony Photography](https://halohush.in/services/naming-cradle-ceremony): Coverage of naming, cradle and ear-piercing ceremonies — the ritual as it happens, with portraits arranged around it rather than through it. - [Kids Portfolio Photography](https://halohush.in/services/kids-portfolio): Portfolio shoots for children in modelling, dance and performance — the range of looks that casting directors actually ask to see. - [Family Portrait Photography](https://halohush.in/services/family-portraits): Family sessions in studio, at home or outdoors — including the generational portraits people mean to organise for years and never do. - [Pre-Wedding Photography](https://halohush.in/services/pre-wedding-photography): Pre-wedding shoots around Chennai and beyond — planned as a proper production, with locations, permits and light all worked out beforehand. - [Wedding Photography](https://halohush.in/services/wedding-photography): Full wedding coverage — South Indian, North Indian, Christian and civil — shot as documentary work with portraits built into the schedule. - [Event & Celebration Photography](https://halohush.in/services/event-photography): Coverage for birthdays, ear piercings, housewarmings, retirements and anniversaries — the family occasions between the big ones. ## Themed sets owned by the studio - [Jungle Safari](https://halohush.in/themes/jungle-safari) (Newborn to 3 years): Watercolour forest, hanging vines and a family of hand-painted animals — giraffe, elephant, lion cub, monkeys — with a carved WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE block set. - [Beach & Shore](https://halohush.in/themes/beach-shore) (6 months to 6 years): Soft sand, shells and a wide open sky. Our lightest, brightest set, and the one that suits a sitter session best — three backdrop variations to choose between. - [Unicorn Dreams](https://halohush.in/themes/unicorn-dreams) (6 months to 5 years): Pastel clouds, rainbows and a unicorn. The most-requested set for first birthdays, and the one that photographs best in soft, hazy light. - [Candy Land](https://halohush.in/themes/candy-land) (9 months to 3 years): Lollipops, sweets and sugar-bright colour. Built for cake smash sessions, where the palette of the set, the outfit and the cake are matched deliberately. - [Little Racer](https://halohush.in/themes/little-racer) (1 to 4 years): Pit lane, chequered flags and a racing number. Comic and energetic, and the set that works best once a toddler will play along with an idea. - [Little Sailor](https://halohush.in/themes/little-sailor) (3 months to 4 years): Navy and cream, rope, anchors and a wooden boat. Classic rather than novelty, and it ages well on a wall. - [The Book House](https://halohush.in/themes/book-house) (6 months to 6 years): Shelves of storybooks and a reading nook. Quiet, warm and full of detail — the set families choose when they want the photograph to feel like a memory rather than a production. - [The Orchestra](https://halohush.in/themes/the-orchestra) (1 to 6 years): Instruments, sheet music and a small conductor. One of our more unusual sets, and a favourite for siblings photographed together. - [Festive Diyas](https://halohush.in/themes/festive-diyas) (All ages · seasonal): Hanging diyas, warm lamplight and traditional colour. Built for Diwali and festival sessions, and lit by the practical lamps rather than around them. - [Little Chef](https://halohush.in/themes/little-chef) (1 to 5 years): A copper kitchen with real pans, a tiny apron and a rolling pin. Toddlers understand this set immediately, which is exactly why it works. - [Buzzy Sunflowers](https://halohush.in/themes/buzzy-sunflowers) (3 months to 3 years): Sunflowers, bees and a woven basket on a soft cream ground. Warm and gentle, and one of the best sets we have for a six-month sitter session. - [Natural Woods](https://halohush.in/themes/natural-woods) (Newborn to 2 years, and maternity): Barn wood, light wood, vintage beige and soft texture — four neutral grounds with no theme at all. The quietest option, and the one that dates least on a wall. ## Packages - [The Hush](https://halohush.in/packages/the-hush) — Newborn. An unhurried newborn session in a warm studio, held from your due date and scheduled once the baby arrives. Two to four hours, at the baby's pace. - [The Halo](https://halohush.in/packages/the-halo) — Theme session. Our flagship themed session. A set designed around your chosen theme, built and lit the day before, photographed with a handler alongside the photographer. - [The Year](https://halohush.in/packages/the-year) — Milestone plan. A year of milestone sessions booked as one plan, with a consistent theme language so the images read as a series rather than four unrelated shoots. - [The Beginning](https://halohush.in/packages/the-beginning) — Maternity. A maternity session between 28 and 36 weeks, bundled with the newborn session afterwards — booked together, priced together, styled to match. - [The Vow](https://halohush.in/packages/the-vow) — Wedding. Multi-event wedding coverage with two photographers as standard, a planned ritual order, a written family shot list, and a highlight set within 72 hours. ## Service area Studio sessions in Royal Garden, Kattupakkam, Chennai.
