Shobha Digital Studio

Weddings · Pre-weddings · Kids · Temple festivals and Yakshagana — photography and cinematography from the heart of Belvai, for all of Dakshina Kannada.

Namaskara from Belvai

A studio that belongs to its people

Led by Devanand Bhat, Shobha Digital Studio has been part of life in Belvai and around Moodbidri for years — from temple festivals and Yakshagana nights to weddings, naming ceremonies and the first portraits of a newborn.

We bring a quiet, respectful eye to every occasion, and the craft of a full digital studio — photography, cinematography, album design and printing, all under one roof.

Frequently asked questions

Which areas do you cover?

We are based in Belvai and regularly photograph weddings, events and shoots across Moodbidri, Karkala, Mangalore, Bantwal, Udupi and all of Dakshina Kannada. Travel beyond the district can be arranged.

Do you cover temple rituals and Yakshagana?

Yes — it is one of our specialities. We document Brahmakalashas, Nagamandalas, jatras, naming and upanayana ceremonies, and Yakshagana and stage programmes, always with respect for the tradition.

How soon do we receive our photos and films?

Edited photos are usually shared within a few weeks of the event, and cinematic films a little after. We can prioritise a short highlight set sooner on request.

What does a wedding package typically include?

Most couples choose candid and traditional photography, a cinematic film, and a designed album. Every package is tailored to your occasion and budget — tell us what you have in mind and we will put together the right coverage.

Do you do pre-wedding and outdoor shoots?

Yes. We plan pre-wedding and engagement shoots around the places and themes that mean something to you, and also do kids, newborn, family and portrait sessions on location or in studio.

Do you provide printed albums, frames and prints?

Yes. As a full digital studio we design and print albums in-house, and offer framing, enlargements and photo restoration.

How do we check availability and book?

The quickest way is to message us on WhatsApp with your date and occasion, or send an enquiry from the contact page. We will confirm availability and share the details.
