Shankara is a result-oriented beauty brand that combines ayurvedic wisdom with advanced science for skin transformation, using only natural ingredients.
The photography moodboard for Shankara India centered around its brand ethos - the celebration of natural beauty with a modern approach. Set in soothing, calm environments, the art direction concentrates on creating real, life-like settings.

For their model shoot the brief was very clear - images & faces that are as natural as the product itself.

While shooting for the same brand over a period of time helps us get familiar with the products & ensures a certain brand language is followed across moodboards, there is the chance of the styling getting repetitive. To avoid that, for Shankara's next round of photography, we retained the fabrics, flowers & soft lighting from earlier shoots but added freshness with the use of glass & mirrors.

What we love most about the Shankara digital media page is that the brand allows us to go beyond commercial advertising norms. Aesthetics play a pivotal role, as does balancing products with informative & feel-good communication.
Emailers, ads & web banners designed for the brands’ performance marketing. While the focus of the communication shifts, the artworks remain true to the brand aesthetics.
