The short answer
For couples marrying in Huntingdon, 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. We read the rhythm of an Asian celebration and are always in the right place at the right time. Multi day Asian weddings are a speciality in Huntingdon, from the pre wedding events and the baraat to the ceremony and the reception, whatever your tradition. We are trusted with celebrations of every size, from intimate ceremonies to several hundred guests. 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 Cambridgeshire for your wedding.
Serving Huntingdon
Huntingdon is a market town on the Great Ouse. Whether your ceremony is in a temple, a gurdwara or a hotel ballroom, we are comfortable photographing right across St Ives, Godmanchester and St Neots and beyond. For Tamil and South Indian families, the muhurtham reaches its heart as the thali is tied, and we are in position for that single, defining second.
We blend candid storytelling with a handful of timeless, beautifully lit portraits. We shoot the getting-ready hours as a story of anticipation, from the jewellery going on to the last look in the mirror before the ceremony. We keep the calm of the ceremony and the energy of the reception in equal measure.
Whether your celebration is in Huntingdon itself or elsewhere in Cambridgeshire, we plan travel and timings with care. Huntingdon is a market town on the Great Ouse. We also photograph in nearby Peterborough and Cambridge. Local wedding venues we know near Huntingdon include The Old Bridge Hotel, The George Hotel and Huntingdon Racecourse.
Huntingdon is a market town on the Great Ouse and the birthplace of Oliver Cromwell. Huntingdon railway station is on the East Coast Main Line, close to the A1 and A14. For portraits away from the celebration, Hinchingbrooke Country Park, with over 170 acres of lakes and woodland works beautifully, and The Cromwell Museum, housed in the former grammar school Cromwell attended adds a real sense of place.

What we offer
We give the grandparents, aunties and uncles the time they deserve, holding the generations that make your day what it is.
We photograph the day as it truly unfolds, staying out of the way so the moments belong to you.
The mehndi, haldi and sangeet, where the warmest, most natural moments often happen.
Every tradition
The garland exchange, when the couple meet with the jaimala, is a moment of pure joy we love to photograph. The kanyadaan and the joining of hands at the mandap are photographed with quiet care. The joining of hands, the knotting of the couple's garments and their first shared steps carry a marriage forward, and we document each stage as it comes.
The pre-wedding events are often where the most natural photographs come from, and we give them full attention. Preparations hold a quiet anticipation of their own, and we photograph the jewellery, the tying of the turban and the last still moments before the day begins. For Muslim families the walima is a warm celebration in its own right, and we cover it in full.

The whole celebration
The sangeet brings an evening of rehearsed dances and late-night music before the wedding day itself. The mehndi gathering is where the whole family finally lands in one place, and we photograph the reunions, the cups of chai and the henna drying across a dozen hands.
An Asian wedding day rarely runs to a single clock, so we plan around the ceremony, the meals and the long gaps in between, staying ready for whatever arrives next. We keep the day flowing, moving smoothly between the ceremony, the family photos and the reception.
Why choose us
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. Decades of weddings mean we read the day instinctively and never miss the moments that matter.
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. We photograph weddings throughout the region, and Huntingdon is firmly within the area we cover.

Where we travel
From our London base, Huntingdon and the rest of Cambridgeshire are an easy, familiar journey. We travel happily across Cambridgeshire and the surrounding counties for the whole celebration.

Good to know
Yes. Twenty-five years photographing Hindu, Sikh, Muslim, Gujarati and Tamil weddings in Huntingdon and beyond mean we understand how each tradition's day unfolds, so we are always in position for the moments that matter and never caught out of place.
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.
Yes, we are comfortable photographing at temples and are happy to travel to Huntingdon 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.
We do, and we know these matter enormously to elder relatives. We plan a group list with you beforehand so we can gather everyone efficiently, usually after the ceremony, without keeping guests waiting. The rest of the day we spend recording things as they naturally unfold.
Yes, without fail. We carry backup cameras, lenses and memory cards to every wedding and copy your images on the day as we work, so your photographs stay safe. After twenty-five years and more than a thousand weddings, being prepared for anything is simply how we operate.
Yes, the reception is a large part of the celebration. We record the grand entrance, the speeches, the first dance and the energy on the floor as the dhol and DJ take over. We keep working through the evening so the whole spirit of the party is preserved.
We would love to. The mehndi, the haldi or pithi, and the sangeet in Huntingdon often hold the warmest and most natural moments, and we are happy to cover them alongside the wedding. Many families ask us to follow the whole celebration from the very first event to the last.
