What they are saying ....

"I quickly realized that Shruthi is a professional photographer of the highest quality.

Not only is the lighting and composition of her photos incredible, but she embodies a philosophy of getting to know you as her client before she ever starts to take your picture.

This allows her to bring your spirit and persona alive in the photos. Shruthi is meticulous in organizing the photo shoot experience, including planning wardrobes, make-up and poses that properly reflect your personality.

On top of it all, Shruthi is a lovely person, so easy to talk to and work with. She put me at ease and helped me to smile and laugh through out the photo shoot experience! The result were photographs that look like a happy and genuine version of me!."

About your photographer

This is me, the face behind Studio S.

I am Shruthi (shrew-thee), mid-40s, and loving life.

I am loving getting older, and learning to be kind to myself not just others.

I have ADHD and anxiety, but you will never know that when you meet me. I am an introvert but you would never know when you meet me because I have Chandler Bing’s personality - I will make you laugh before you find out am actually an introvert.

The love of my life is my pupper, Sonny, and the 'S' in Studio S is for him. There is nothing in the world I wouldn’t do for him.

I am a plus size curvy girl and I own it! My business is, like me, body positive, age positive, women positive. I love being an older woman and am already in my “grumpy give no F’s” era.

I believe in creating experiences for women that celebrate who we are right now. No special occasion needed.

Drop me a line today to learn more about photography experiences I offer and how we can create memories for you.

HOT TAKE - I’m not going to tell you 40 is the new 20! 40 is the 40 and it’s awesome to be over 40. I wear my age proudly and so should you. Why you ask?

Let me tell you! 40 is around the age when you finally get the hang of adulting, it’s when you’ve pruned a lot of the unnecessary people out of your lives, you can tell the difference between constructive criticism and those who want to tear you down, you dress for your confidence and most importantly you finally realize that the ones who love you will think you are amazing and beautiful no matter what! You also probably have a children of your own and are beginning to or have already made a name for yourself at work. This is just the 40’s, it gets better as that number increases.

So I want to celebrate that, I want younger generations to look at us feel hopeful and happy, not feel ashamed to age.

Who is with me?

Ladies, when was the last time you saw a woman over 40 on the cover of a magazine who wasn’t a celebrity? It’s time to change that narrative. At Studio S, we believe every woman—no matter her age—deserves to be celebrated, seen, and acknowledged for the incredible force she is.
This fall/winter, instead of letting the seasonal blues take over, let’s celebrate the beauty, wisdom, and confidence that come with age.

Our 40 over 40 campaign is more than just a photoshoot; it’s an empowering experience designed to show you that growing older doesn’t mean you stop being beautiful. In fact, it’s where your true radiance shines through.

🌟
With professional hair and makeup, expert styling, and multiple wardrobe changes, you’ll feel pampered from start to finish. Part of the shoot can even cover headshots for work—because being a high achiever at any age deserves to be recognized.

Don’t just take our word for it—here’s what one of our incredible clients had to say:

“I had not had professional photos taken of me since my wedding 29 years ago, so I was a bit nervous about the experience. Shruthi made me feel at ease, planning every detail from wardrobes to poses. The result? Photographs that capture a happy and genuine version of me. It was truly a pampering experience where I just had to show up and be myself.”

This season, let’s redefine what it means to age. Book your session now and step into your power, your beauty, your story. 💫

August that was…..

#studiosportraitsmassachusetts

This is one of my favorite photos I’ve ever done, probably also because the woman in this picture is as sweet a person as she is gorgeous. This shoot actually had three women who are friends come together for a photo shoot. Each of them is so gorgeous, and I promise you their accomplishments will disarm you more than their looks. Yes they are younger, but their focus, drive and how hard they work to achieve everything they want while being so kind and sweet - I am so envious of their maturity and clarity.

You know that sound bite - “oh how I love being a woman” - I always hear it when I see their pictures.

Bonus post today….. This is my boy Sonny “happy-boy-ing” it at his favorite dog park in south Kingston, Rhode Island. I had some work in Rhode Island today and took him with me to make a day of it. I took him to his favorite dog park because it’s a huge dog park and is full of grass and shade. He reminded me today to look at life from his pov - the moment he knew he was at this park, he was soooo happy, he sniffed every corner and ran around remembering it from when we used to live close to it. We then went and got ice cream at our favorite place in naragansett…. Right now he’s happily passed out near my foot. He got to indulge in his simple but favorite things with his mom…..he’s got a whole day with his mom and it made him so so happy. He doesn’t need a large house, a fancy car, or a luxury holiday just an afternoon with his mom…got to go ugly cry into his fur now. We don’t deserve dogs!

Within the @crrchamber, there are smaller networking groups and this is mine - The Brite Smiths - we got some impromptu headshots done on the day of our last meeting.

Happy Friday. This week has been something else - battled a migraine(boy was that fun) for a good part of it so am just glad it’s Friday and it started with getting coffee with one of my favorite people in the world @slf_2023 . We laughed and chatted for a couple of hours, sort of laughing at the weeks that have gone by and the things that have happened in them. Boy am I glad it’s Friday! Who else is with me? Looking forward to a weekend reset (hopefully, she says!).
