Asian wedding photography in Carpenders Park

An Asian wedding week is mostly not ceremony. Add up the hours and most of them go on travelling, changing, waiting and eating, and that is exactly where the photographs nobody planned for come from. It is also the first thing cut when a day slips behind. So what we ask a family for is not a running order of rites; it is the order of the gaps, plus who is in charge during each one.

Carpenders Park works outward. The house would come first, and with no venue among the residential streets, the rites and the party would be held elsewhere, possibly in two different places. Two hired rooms inside one week means two lighting problems and two sets of questions to ask before signing. Oxhey Woods, nearly 100 hectares of mainly ancient woodland, sits nearby for portraits, and under its canopy the usable light fades well before the sky above does.

We were delighted with Kaushik being our wedding photographer. He was organised and professional and kept everything stress free. He took some great photos and produced a memorable wedding album. Highly recommended.

Superb and highly professional wedding photographer. We had the pleasure of working with Kaushik Bathia Photography for a recent wedding at Orchardleigh Estate.

Every tradition

Every tradition, beautifully told

No two families hand ceremonial authority to the same person. In one house the decisive hour belongs to a priest at a fire. Elsewhere it sits with whoever reads from the front of a hall. In a third house it rests with an imam and two witnesses in a side room. Practically, our opening question is never which tradition this is, but who may tell a photographer to stop, and what we are allowed to do once they have.

After that comes the question of what cannot happen twice. A vidaai occurs once. A doli occurs once. Nearly everything else across the week carries some slack, and knowing which parts carry none is most of what a photographer is for. So the fixed camera goes on whatever will not repeat, while the movable one hunts the edges, rather than both of us chasing a single face from two feet apart.

Why choose us

Mixed and multi-faith weeks around Carpenders Park

A mixed or multi-faith week is planned as one wedding. Each family's ceremony is talked through at the planning stage, so nobody has to explain it on the day and no family watches a photographer working out what is going on. Over five days that matters more than the contents of the kit bag.

Good to know

Asian weddings in Carpenders Park, FAQs

Yes, all the way to the last song. Evenings are where the pictures get loose and the older relatives finally relax, and a room lit for a dance floor needs different handling from a room lit for a ceremony.

Printed and bound properly, laid flat so a picture can run across the spine without vanishing into it. We build the first draft, you cut and reorder it as you like, and it reaches the printer only once you are happy.

The structure of the ceremony is studied and planned for before the day. Knowing that the circuits repeat, that the canopy blocks most angles and that certain moments last seconds means we can be standing in the right place rather than reacting late.

Yes, and we treat both as the main event rather than one as an add-on. We would put the question to each side on its own, because those answers rarely match, and then build the coverage to hold both.

Yes. Northwood is our base, about 2.3 miles from Carpenders Park, and travel to Carpenders Park is not charged. A week spread over several buildings can be covered as a single booking.
