The short answer
For couples marrying in Epsom, Kaushik Bathia offers award winning Asian wedding photography, with more than twenty five years of experience across every tradition and over a thousand weddings behind the camera. Our style is unobtrusive, so the day feels like yours and never a photoshoot. Whether your wedding in Epsom is Hindu, Sikh, Gujarati, Muslim, Tamil or a fusion of traditions, we know the order of each faith's rituals and cover the whole celebration. We know the rhythm of a mandap, a gurdwara and a nikah alike, so the sacred moments are always captured. You can add a second photographer, a female photographer and hand finished albums, and we are glad to travel across Surrey and beyond, so wherever your celebration is held it is within reach.
Serving Epsom
Epsom is a Surrey town famous for its racecourse and country venues. Across Ewell, Leatherhead and Sutton and the wider reaches of Surrey, we cover ceremonies in mandaps, marquees and grand reception suites with the same careful eye. The garland exchange, when the couple meet with the jaimala, is a moment of pure joy we love to photograph.
We balance documentary coverage with a few quiet portraits, so your album holds both energy and elegance. A female photographer is available for the getting-ready hours and any moments where the women of the family would prefer a woman behind the camera. When the baraat arrives with drums and dancing we are in the thick of it, moving with the crowd so the welcome looks and feels exactly as loud as it was.
We travel across Surrey for weddings of every tradition, and Epsom is a Surrey town famous for its racecourse and country venues, which makes it a straightforward and welcome destination. We also cover nearby Camberley and Redhill. Venues we have photographed at near Epsom include Epsom Downs Racecourse and Woodcote Park.
Epsom is a Surrey town famous for Epsom Downs Racecourse, which hosts the Derby, and as the source of Epsom salts. Epsom railway station has services to London Waterloo, Victoria and London Bridge, and the town lies on the A24 south of London. When there is time for couple portraits, Nonsuch Park, on the edge of Epsom and Ewell is a favourite, and Epsom Downs Racecourse makes a memorable setting.

What we offer
Whether by baraat, doli or a lit-up reception walk, we make sure your entrance is caught in full and never half-framed.
Hindu, Sikh, Gujarati, Muslim and Tamil ceremonies, with the rituals and rhythm of each understood.
The muhurtham and the tying of the thali, captured with care and respect.
Every tradition
At the gurdwara, the couple's walk around the Guru Granth Sahib during each laav is captured with reverence. We learn the sequence of your particular ceremony beforehand, so whether it is Hindu, Sikh, Muslim, Gujarati or Tamil, we anticipate each ritual rather than chase it. The kanyadaan and the joining of hands at the mandap are photographed with quiet care.
The mehndi evening is close and detailed, henna curling across the bride's hands while the room fills with song, and we photograph the artistry and the laughter alike. The pre-wedding events are often where the most natural photographs come from, and we give them full attention. From the turmeric of the haldi to the music of the sangeet, the events set the tone for the wedding.

The whole celebration
Tell us which events matter most and we will build the coverage around them. Haldi mornings tend to be messy and full of feeling, so we keep our distance where it helps and move in close when the turmeric starts flying between cousins.
From the baraat to the last guest, we follow the whole day at its own pace. The best galleries are spread evenly across the day, not saved for the ceremony alone.
Why choose us
Our experience runs deep across Hindu, Sikh, Gujarati, Punjabi, Muslim and Tamil weddings. More than a thousand celebrations sit behind us, and that depth means we recognise the mangalsutra moment, the fourth laav or the signing of the nikah before it arrives.
We travel happily across Surrey and the surrounding counties for the whole celebration. Early muhurat timings often mean an early departure, and we build that into our planning so we are set up and ready before the first guest arrives.

Where we travel
Distance rarely enters our thinking; we plan the route, allow for the traffic and arrive in good time wherever your events are held. From our London base the towns of Surrey are an easy and familiar run, and we are happy to travel further afield when your day calls for it.

Good to know
Yes, we are comfortable photographing at temples and are happy to travel to Epsom for a ceremony there. We take the time to understand the customs of the particular mandir, so we can work respectfully within its rules while still recording the day fully for you.
Yes. Alongside your album we provide an online gallery of your edited images, which you can share easily with family whether they are near Epsom or overseas. Relatives who could not attend the wedding can then see the day and, where you wish, order their own prints.
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.
Yes, gladly. A small ceremony with close family receives just as much care from us as a celebration of several hundred guests, and we tailor our coverage to your day and your traditions. Every wedding matters, whatever the size of the gathering.
Yes, and we enjoy the variety a fusion day brings. Whether you are combining a Hindu ceremony with a civil service, or a Sikh and Muslim family coming together, we respect the customs of each side. We plan the timeline carefully so both traditions are given equal attention.
Asian receptions often carry on well into the evening, and we plan our coverage to see the day through to the moments that matter to you. We agree the finishing point in advance, and if the celebration overruns we will always discuss options rather than simply pack away.
Certainly. Many couples hold a register office or civil ceremony alongside their religious rites, sometimes on different days, and we are happy to cover both. We build a timeline that links the two so your finished collection tells one continuous story of how you married.
