Planning the gaps between events in Warwick
Asian weddings seldom occupy one event or one roof, and the intervals between the parts decide whether a photographer keeps up. Three separate days in three separate buildings is ordinary, and each move between them eats an hour nobody planned. The gap between a morning function and an evening one is when families change clothes, move cars and mislay that hour; it is equally the week's only opportunity for an unhurried portrait.
Warwick helps with that. Priory Park is public ground, central and open to anyone, which means somebody's dog may walk through your group shot; that is an argument for working quickly there, not for avoiding it. Relatives arriving by rail from Leamington Spa or Birmingham can be collected at one point instead of three, which removes a whole category of phone calls from your afternoon. Plan around the intervals and the photographs stop looking rushed.

The Reception
Every tradition
Three ceremonies, three heights to photograph from
Three weddings, three rooms, three different heights to work from. Where the important thing happens on a raised platform, you photograph upwards at it. Where it happens at floor level, you drop to the floor yourself and stay put. Where a table holds it, the whole event is the size of a sheet of paper and everything around it counts as decoration. Getting the height wrong is not a stylistic matter; it is a picture nobody gets.
Timing divides the same three ways. A nikah may be finished in minutes. A mandap has to be built before anybody can be photographed beneath it, and it goes up on somebody else's schedule. Other ceremonies run for hours and repeat themselves, which decides whether a photographer can afford to move at all. What the day hinges on is our opening question. Request a running order in return and it will have the gaps marked, since gaps are where days go wrong.
Why choose us
How we prepare for a Warwick wedding week
Questions come early and few on the day itself. Before we arrive we should know who the elders are, the order the buildings come in, and what nobody wants photographed. After that the work is to be somewhere useful and stay off the route everyone else is walking. You get pictures your family recognises.
Kaushik Bathia photographs every Warwick booking himself: he set up in 2001, holds five European Kodak Gold Awards and is a fellow of both the BIPP and the MPA.

Good to know
Asian weddings in Warwick, FAQs
Yes. Before the day we read what your venue publishes: Warwick Castle, for example, seats up to 120 for a ceremony in the Great Hall and 180 for an evening reception, and guests can stay on site in Woodland Lodges, Medieval Glamping Tents or a 60-bedroom hotel. Then we ask the venue for a floor plan, check where each event falls against the light, and arrive early enough to walk the route before your guests do.
Their rules outrank ours. We put the questions to the committee rather than to you: what is permitted, from where, and with what. No flash unless it is offered, shoes and heads as instructed, and nothing of ours left standing in a walkway.
Summer Saturdays and dates near the major festivals go first, occasionally a year ahead. Fixed date: ask now. Flexible: name the months under consideration and you will get back the weekends that are still open.
Galleries go online with a link that can be forwarded, which is the practical answer for relatives abroad. Downloading is enabled and needs no account, and the page behaves on a handset wherever in the world it opens.
Experience is the answer. We aim to read the pace of an Asian day and move ahead of the action, and we would map each move between your Warwick buildings with you beforehand. Adding a second photographer lets one of us stay with the ceremony while the other follows the family, which helps if, say, the civil ceremony is at The Judges' House and the evening is somewhere else.
