The short answer

Your Asian wedding photographer in Buckingham, at a glance

Kaushik Bathia has photographed Asian weddings across Buckinghamshire for over twenty five years, and couples in Buckingham choose him for calm, knowledgeable coverage of every tradition, backed by five European Gold awards. We follow your family's customs closely and photograph them exactly as you keep them. From the mehndi and sangeet to the baraat, the ceremony and the reception, we photograph every part of an Asian wedding in and around Buckingham with knowledge and care. Experience is not only knowing the rituals; it is knowing when a grandmother will cry and where the light will fall, and being ready for both. A second photographer for the busiest days, a female photographer where needed and beautiful fine art albums are all part of what we offer, and we travel throughout Buckinghamshire for your wedding.

Serving Buckingham

Asian wedding coverage in Buckingham

Buckingham is a historic market town with country venues. Families throughout Milton Keynes, Brackley and Bicester bring us into their gurdwaras, mosques and banqueting halls, and we treat each setting with the respect it is due. We are ready for the giving of the sindoor and the tying of the mangalsutra at a Hindu ceremony.

Every tradition has its own rhythm, and our job is to feel that rhythm and photograph inside it rather than imposing a routine of our own on your day. For the jaimala and the joota chupai we stay close to the fun, because these lighter rituals carry as much of the family's character as the solemn ones. Our approach is relaxed and documentary, so you can be present in your own wedding.

Wherever your venues are across Buckingham and Buckinghamshire, we plan the route and the timings in advance. Buckingham is a historic market town with country venues. We also photograph in nearby Amersham and Chesham. Close to Buckingham, we have worked at venues including Stowe House and Swanbourne House.

Buckingham is a historic market town on the River Great Ouse and was formerly the county town of Buckinghamshire. Buckingham has no railway station and is served by the A421 and A422 roads linking it to Milton Keynes, Bicester and Banbury. For relaxed couple photographs, we like Stowe Landscape Gardens, the National Trust gardens about three miles north west of the town, and Buckingham Old Gaol, a landmark building in the town centre now used as a museum gives the day a strong sense of Buckingham.

What we offer

What is included in your Buckingham Asian wedding coverage

Every Tradition

Hindu, Sikh, Gujarati, Muslim and Tamil ceremonies, with the rituals and rhythm of each understood.

Whole-Day Coverage

From the morning preparations to the last dance, every event told as one story.

Fine-Art Albums

Hand-finished albums that hold the whole story of your Asian celebration.

Every tradition

Coverage That Honours the Anand Karaj

The muhurat and muhurtham, the auspicious hours, set the pace of the ceremony, and we plan around them. At a Gujarati mandap we know the hastamelap and the four mangal pheras, and we photograph them in the order your priest keeps rather than a generic script. For Tamil and South Indian families, the muhurtham and the tying of the thali are the sacred centre of the ceremony.

The mehndi or henna night is intimate and detailed, and we photograph both the henna and the laughter around it. For Muslim families the walima is a warm celebration in its own right, and we cover it in full. For Gujarati families the garba and raas fill an evening with circling colour and movement, and we love following the dandiya sticks and the swirling skirts.

The whole celebration

From the sangeet to the reception

The henna of the mehndi and the turmeric of the haldi are rich with colour, and we make the most of it. We arrive in good time for each pre-wedding event and stay until the celebrations wind down.

On the wedding day, the baraat, the ceremony and the vows build to the farewell and the reception. We photograph the ceremony, the portraits and the reception in balance, so each is given its due.

Why choose us

The Quiet Craft We Bring to Your Wedding

Decades of early muhurat starts and late reception finishes have made us calm under pressure, whatever the tradition and however large the guest list. We have spent twenty-five years learning the detail of Asian weddings, and it shows in every gallery.

From London we reach Buckingham easily, and we know the venues of Buckinghamshire well. From our London base the towns of Buckinghamshire are an easy and familiar run, and we are happy to travel further afield when your day calls for it.

Where we travel

Covering Every Venue in and Around Buckingham

Distance rarely enters our thinking; we plan the route, allow for the traffic and arrive in good time wherever your events are held. We are based in London and think nothing of the drive across Buckinghamshire, so travelling to your venues is simply part of how we work.

Good to know

Wedding photography in Buckingham, frequently asked questions

Can you provide a female or second photographer for segregated events?+

Yes. For celebrations where events are separate or segregated, we can arrange additional photographers so every part of the day is covered with sensitivity and discretion. Just let us know what your family needs when you enquire and we will plan the coverage around it.

Do you travel to Buckingham for Asian weddings?+

Gladly. Asian weddings of every tradition are our speciality, and Buckingham sits well within the area we cover for Hindu, Sikh, Gujarati, Muslim and Tamil celebrations. We are London-based and used to journeys of every kind, so distance is never a problem.

Are you discreet during the ceremony?+

Very. We photograph the vows and the sacred rituals from a respectful distance with quiet, long-lens work, whatever the tradition, so the ceremony is never disturbed. Our documentary style means the day feels like yours, and we are a calm, unobtrusive presence throughout.

Are you experienced with Tamil and South Indian weddings?+

Yes. We photograph the muhurtham, the tying of the thali and the many rituals of a Tamil or South Indian wedding, and we understand their early timings and their sequence.

What happens after the wedding?+

Soon after your Buckingham wedding you will receive a small preview, and your full edited gallery follows once the editing is complete. We then design a hand-finished album that holds the whole story of your celebration.

Why choose a London photographer for Buckingham?+

From our London base, Buckingham and the surrounding area are an easy, familiar journey. You get a widely experienced Asian wedding specialist who has photographed every tradition, who knows the venues of the area, and who travels to you without fuss.

Have you worked with dhol players, DJs and other suppliers before?+

Many times. Asian weddings bring together dhol drummers, decorators, caterers and entertainers, and we know how to work alongside them without getting in each other's way. Good coordination on the day keeps things flowing, and it means we are always in the right place when something happens.
