In Odia, chhabikar means the one who makes the picture. We photograph weddings, portraits, brands and events across Bhubaneswar — built frame by frame, not filtered into sameness.
Chhabi is picture. Kar is the maker. We chose the name because it says exactly what we do and nothing more — no promise of magic, just the discipline of making a picture worth keeping.
We work across Bhubaneswar and Odisha, shooting weddings at Mukteswar-adjacent mandaps, portraits in golden-hour courtyards, and product work for brands who'd rather show their work than describe it.
Every booking gets the same discipline — a pre-shoot brief, one photographer of record, and a considered edit. No mass-produced presets.
Full-day and multi-day coverage — haldi to reception — shot to be read as a story, not a checklist of poses.
2-day avg. coverageStudio or on-location portraits for individuals, couples and families, with a simple, unhurried direction style.
Studio + on-siteProduct, food and interior photography for Bhubaneswar businesses that need images built for their own website and menus.
Web-ready deliveryCorporate events, launches, and cultural programmes — including Odissi recitals and temple festival documentation.
Same-week previewChhabikar is a small studio, not an agency of shooters. Every booking is handled by a lead photographer who was on the pre-shoot call, so the person you meet is the person behind the camera.
We're based in Bhubaneswar and travel across Odisha for weddings and cultural events, keeping the same editing hand from first frame to final gallery.
