Born in Calcutta, India, Mou Mukherjee was drawn to photography from a young age, inspired by her father and supported by her creative, animal-loving mother. She moved to the U.S. with her husband Lakshman in 1998 and later left her job to pursue photography full-time after their son Malhar, was born.
Mou founded PhotosMadeEz and built a successful 15-year career in wedding photography. Her final weddings were held on Labor Day weekend in 2024. Following cancer surgery in 2022, she found comfort photographing birds during radiation breaks in Central Park, an experience that led her to discover her true passion: wildlife photography.
Today, she embraces this new journey with peace, gratitude, and purpose.
