Planning the gaps between events in Bath
Ceremonies are not the risky part of a wedding that runs over several days. Each one has a host, a start time and somebody who knows precisely what follows. Trouble lives in the joins: the ninety minutes when one venue has finished with you, the next is not ready, half the party is changing clothes and nobody holds the schedule. Days get lost in there, and photographers get blamed for losing them.
Bath widens those joins, because a wedding here is a stay rather than a commute. Guests may step off a Great Western Railway train at Bath Spa with a suitcase and no car, stay spread over the city instead of in one hotel, and rely on lifts nobody actually arranged for every move between events. Appoint one person per day whose sole job is answering the question where next. That saves more of a gallery than any equipment we own.

Kaushik has created the perfect wedding albums for us to share with our loved ones forever, the family love them and we couldn't have asked for more. Beyond our expectations. A true professional, great communication and an understanding individual throughout the whole process. Thank you!!!
Superb and highly professional wedding photographer. We had the pleasure of working with Kaushik Bathia Photography for a recent wedding at Orchardleigh Estate.
I hired Kaushik for our wedding and I’m extremely glad I did!! Kaushik took amazing pictures and the quality of the pictures were amazing. Kaushik was very patient and was very helpful since the start. My family including our guest were constantly asking me who the photographer was as he gave the best service.
What we offer
Asian wedding coverage in Bath
Multi-Day Coverage
Mehndi & Sangeet
Every tradition
Fire, laavan or nikah-nama: one plan for a Bath wedding
Some of you will marry with a fire lit in the room. Some will complete four laavan. Some will sign a nikah-nama with witnesses either side. What none of you escapes is the same structural problem: a brief, unrepeatable core dropped into a long and loose day. So we find out early which of those is yours, and we find it out properly. Knowing what comes next instead of guessing is worth about two seconds, and those two seconds are where the picture lives.
The evenings around that core vary far more than the ceremonies. Jago and sangeet are stage-lit performances and get shot as such, with white balance fixed by hand before anybody sings. Dholki and mehndi fill a low warm room, wanting a quick lens and nothing on-camera pointed at it. Haldi is a morning with one open window. No single family keeps all of these, and none of them is photographed as if it were another.
Why choose us
Why the running order comes first in Bath
The running order is not trivia. It puts us in the right place thirty seconds early, and thirty seconds early is what separates a picture of the moment from a picture of somebody's shoulders. So we ask what your family does, not what a tradition is supposed to do.
Whether your wedding is at the Guildhall or out at Priston Mill, Kaushik Bathia photographs it himself, bringing 25+ years since the studio was established in 2001, five European Kodak Gold Awards, FBIPP and FMPA.

Good to know
Asian weddings in Bath, FAQs
Editing begins that same week. A small set of previews reaches you first, then the whole gallery once each frame has had hands on it instead of a preset. Albums come later, if you want one, once you have lived alongside the pictures a while.
Yes, though from a good deal further away than couples expect. A vidaai is not ours to stand inside. A long lens, a position out of the doorway and a family left alone with it are how the moment survives looking like itself.
Book once the venue is signed for. Summer Saturdays vanish first, and a multi-day Bath booking blocks more diary than a single date does, so those go earlier still. Nothing is held on a verbal promise.
Yes. We ask first who may be photographed, we accept the answer, and we stop for the parts that are not ours to keep. Which rooms are open to a camera is agreed at booking and not debated on the day.
Absolutely. A civil ceremony at the Guildhall, where the Georgian Room takes up to 50 people, can sit alongside a faith ceremony on another day, and we would plan the schedule so neither half of your celebration is short-changed.
