A wedding specialism
An Asian wedding photographer covers a sequence of events over several days rather than a single ceremony: typically the mehndi, a sangeet or maiyan, the religious ceremony itself and one or more receptions, often at more than one venue. Kaushik Bathia, established in 2001, covers Hindu, Sikh, Gujarati, Punjabi, Muslim and Tamil weddings. He works from the studio in Northwood HA6 and travels across London, the Home Counties and the rest of the UK. Coverage starts from £750, a second photographer is available for the largest events, and every wedding is delivered as an edited digital gallery with hand-finished albums as an option. You can see recent work in the gallery and read our venue guides, from the Oshwal Centre to Hatfield House. Asian weddings are our speciality. We work calmly and unobtrusively across multi-day, multi-venue celebrations, and we travel wherever your celebration takes place.

Kaushik Bathia is the photographer behind this studio. He opened it at The Broadway, 21 Joel St, Northwood HA6 1NU in 2001. Northwood sits inside Greater London, in the London Borough of Hillingdon, on the Metropolitan line towards Harrow and Wembley.
He is a Fellow of the British Institute of Professional Photography (FBIPP) and a Fellow of the Master Photographers Association (FMPA), both awarded on a panel's assessment of a submitted body of work, and he holds five European Kodak Gold Awards.
…Kaushik is incredibly talented, artistic, and truly gifted with a photographer’s vision. He knows exactly what he wants each frame to look like and how to get the best out of his subjects. Honestly, there were moments during the shoot when I’d wonder, “What is he making me do?” – but when I saw the final shots, I was blown away. Every image looked beautiful, intentional, and natural.
A superb and highly professional wedding photographer. Throughout the registry and wedding ceremonies Kaushik Bathia took beautiful photographs ensuring he captured all the special moments. His friendly personality put everyone at ease and his unique ideas resulted in some wonderful family pictures which we will treasure forever.
Kaushik photographed out wedding on september last year. He was so professional and was great with everyone making them laugh before taking all the snaps. We really couldn't have asked for more he worked hard all day to get the best pictures. We are very pleased with all the pictures and love the photo album. We will differently be using you again in the future Thank you!

How we work
An Asian wedding moves quickly and rarely pauses, so we work quietly and stay a step ahead of the day. We read the rhythm of each ceremony, anticipate the rituals, and photograph the sacred moments from a respectful distance while still catching the colour, the dancing and the family moments in between.
We plan for large guest lists and several venues in a single day, and we bring a second photographer for the busiest celebrations so the ceremony and the guests are both fully covered. We cover Asian weddings across the country, including Birmingham, Wembley, Southall and Harrow. For planning, our guides on cost, the wedding timeline and questions to ask your photographer are a good place to start.

Coverage and booking
Couples comparing Asian wedding photographers in London usually want the same few things answered. These are the questions worth asking anyone you are considering, us included.
Our full list is in questions to ask an Asian wedding photographer, and our guide to Asian wedding photographer costs in London explains what shapes a quote.
Good to know
Asian wedding coverage starts from £750 and is priced around the celebration rather than a fixed package. A mehndi, a sangeet or maiyan, the religious ceremony and a reception can span several days and more than one venue. The number of days, the number of events each day, whether a second photographer covers the bride and groom simultaneously, the travel between venues, and whether you add a hand-finished album are what move the figure. Our guide to Asian wedding photographer costs in London sets out what shapes a quote. Send us your dates and event list for tailored options.
Yes. We cover multi-day, multi-venue celebrations, from the mehndi and sangeet to the baraat, the ceremony and the reception. For the largest events we bring a second photographer so nothing is missed.

Yes. The studio is at The Broadway, 21 Joel St, Northwood HA6 1NU, in the London Borough of Hillingdon in North West London, and has been here since 2001. You are welcome to visit for your consultation and look through sample albums, or we can talk by phone or video. We photograph weddings across all of London and the rest of the UK.
In England and Wales a religious ceremony is only legally binding if the building is registered for marriages and a registrar or authorised person is present. Many temples and gurdwaras are not registered, so many couples hold a separate civil ceremony. Check with your venue and local register office. We can photograph the civil ceremony as well as the religious one.

Guides to venues couples ask about, with what each publishes on capacity, catering, ceremony rules and parking, and what it does not say.
