Serving Kingston upon Thames

Asian wedding photographer in Kingston upon Thames

Kingston upon Thames is a riverside town with a large South Asian and Korean community. We know the venues of London and the surrounding area well, and move easily between the ceremony and reception across Surbiton, New Malden and Norbiton. At a Hindu wedding, the pheras around the sacred fire seal the marriage, and we capture them close.

We move quietly through the day, capturing the real moments rather than staging them. We bring a long lens and a light touch, so the most sacred parts of the day are captured from a respectful distance. 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.

Photographing Every Tradition With Care

Whatever your faith, the auspicious hour sets the tempo, and we plan our positions around the muhurat or muhurtham so the sacred minutes are never rushed for a picture. The muhurat and muhurtham, the auspicious hours, set the pace of the ceremony, and we plan around them. We work quietly around the priest, the granthi or the imam so the ceremony is never disturbed.

The haldi or pithi is turmeric, colour and mischief in equal measure, and it often gives us the warmest and most unguarded frames of the whole wedding. The groom may arrive on horseback, by car or on foot, and whichever way he comes, we are ready for the procession and the dancing around him. The pre-wedding events are unhurried and full of feeling, and we give the mehndi, the haldi and the sangeet the same attention as the wedding day itself.
