Our Team
Chirag Sadhnani - Founder & Director of Photography
I’m Chirag Sadhnani, a cinematographer & photographer from Bombay, India
At the crossroads of high school graduation, I made a pivotal choice to pick up the lens over textbooks. Driven by my love for photography, I embarked on a six-month exploration of Northern India at the age of 17, which shaped an extraordinary adventure and gave me a new perspective on life. A couple of years later, I transitioned into the world of films and found my calling in storytelling, believing in the evocative power of visuals.
Today, I wear many hats: I shoot commercials for brands, work on lifestyle and architecture projects, and create content in the hospitality industry. I also take on personal photo projects and documentaries. Each project allows me to explore different facets of storytelling, from capturing the essence of a brand to highlighting the beauty of a space or telling a deeply personal story.
Collaboration is at the heart of my process, and it’s something I truly value in every project. Wild Child Studios, is a space where we bring creativity and artistry together to craft films that reflect the beauty of collaboration and visual storytelling.
Whether I’m capturing the tranquility of nature or the depth of human emotion, my work reflects a deep connection to the world around me. Beyond the camera, I explore new locales, always in search of the next compelling story. Rooted in a deep connection to nature, I find true happiness in the embrace of a forest or the soothing flow of a river.
Piya Pawha - Creative Director & Editor
I’m Piya Pahwa, a creative director and multimedia designer.
My journey into digital media started on an old MacBook, editing high school assembly videos that celebrated football wins, class trips, and the little moments that brought people together. That joy of capturing stories and making people feel seen has stayed with me ever since.
In the early years of my career, I wore many hats. From production to motion graphics, corporate structures or boutique agencies, I was unsure of whether I was meant to pick one path or follow them all. But looking back, it’s clear that every detour was essential. Today, I work at the intersection of creative ideas and execution, directing shoots, building teams, designing visuals, and helping brands tell stories that actually feel like them.
Having lived in over five countries, travel has deeply shaped who I am. It’s made me a better collaborator, a more curious storyteller, and someone who thrives on human connection. Whether I’m working on a hotel film in the hills or crafting social content for a lifestyle brand, I’m always chasing that spark. Something fun, something real, and something that resonates
Mihika Mungale - Production Manager
I’m Mihika Mungale a Photographer and heading production.
My journey into photography began while working at an international mutual fund company. During that time, I found myself constantly visiting clients' beautiful homes for marketing often capturing countless images along the way. It was in those moments that I discovered my passion for photography. Eventually, I took a leap of faith, left my corporate job, and two years later graduated from photography school.
I started by assisting accomplished photographer who specialised in interiors and architectural spaces, gaining invaluable insights and on-ground expertise. Over time, I transitioned into production, working alongside top photographers for over nine years on high-profile shoots for luxury hotels and resorts. My experience features collaborations with prestigious hospitality brands including Marriott, Taj, and Hyatt, among others.
And while I thrive on the precision and planning what each shoot demands, it’s the people, the stories, and the ever-changing backdrops from sunlit rooms to ocean views that make this journey endlessly rewarding. Every project is a new adventure, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
