…Kaushik has an incredible eye for detail and an exceptional talent for capturing those fleeting, candid moments that made our wedding so unique. The photos are absolutely stunning—full of emotion, vibrancy, and creativity. He didn’t just take photographs; he told the story of our wedding day in the most heartfelt and artistic way possible.

Devki M., Google review, 2024

Kaushik Has magical touches!! We did a family session and were surprised that we could not find any flaw with circa 200 pictures taken by Kaushik. Kausik is simply amazing , we highly recommend to give job to Kaushik to capture special moments of life !! Well done Kaushik!!

Yugal K., Google review, 2017

My two sisters and I ‘ the golden girls’ had a great, hilarious photo session. Kaushik is very professional and took some amazing photos especially when we were laughing so much trying to get up from the floor. Can’t wait to see ‘air brushed’ version. Well at 75 you need a little help. Definitely recommend Kashuik. He enjoyed our craziness!

What we photograph in Belmont

Weddings, portraits and business work around Belmont

Belmont is a quiet residential district named after an 18th-century viewing mound raised by the Duke of Chandos. The studio in Northwood suits headshots and portraits, and for weddings and events we can work at venues, churches and temples across Stanmore, Kenton and Queensbury. Cake smashes happen fast, so everything is set up before you arrive and your one year old gets to decide how the cake meets its end.

For a civil wedding, Harrow Register Office is at The Pavilion, Perceval Square, College Road (HA1 1GX), where the ceremony room suits 50 guests or fewer, and for an Asian celebration spread over several days we plan coverage around each event. A first birthday, a graduation, a maternity session or a newborn's first days can be photographed at the studio or outdoors nearby, for instance in the walled King George V Memorial Garden in Canons Park, once the Duke of Chandos's kitchen garden. Licensed venues near Belmont include Grim's Dyke Hotel in Harrow Weald, once the home of W. S. Gilbert, with three ceremony rooms, and The Great Barn at Headstone Manor, dating from 1506 and licensed for 80 to 250-plus guests, and beyond weddings we photograph engagements, christenings, family portraits and milestone birthdays.

Commercial bookings range from conferences and team headshots to product ranges for businesses selling online. Professional and acting portraits get unhurried attention, and corporate events and product shoots get the same care. Pets get the patience we would give an anxious headshot sitter, and during the week we also take on branding, product and corporate event work.

Across Belmont

A short trip to Belmont

Bookings are welcome from any part of Belmont, in HA3 or HA7. Belmont is a quiet residential district named after an 18th-century viewing mound raised by the Duke of Chandos, and we work just as readily in Stanmore and Kenton nearby. Venues close to Belmont include The Hive London on Camrose Avenue.

Belmont lies between Stanmore, Kenton, Wealdstone and Queensbury and takes its name from a mound built in the early 18th century by the Duke of Chandos, now part of Stanmore Golf Course. Belmont's branch-line station opened in 1932 and lost its passenger service under the Beeching cuts in 1964. For pre-wedding and couple portraits, Kenton Recreation Ground, just south of Belmont, offers 21 hectares of open space.

You are never left guessing. Beforehand we agree the plan, timings and what to bring, perhaps for a walk on the Belmont Trail, the path between Wealdstone and Stanmore that follows the old branch line, and on the day we stay flexible. Each session opens with a few minutes of conversation, because people photograph better once they have relaxed.

Why book us in Belmont

25 years of practice, four miles from Belmont

Kaushik has been a professional photographer for more than 25 years, so you are booking settled judgement rather than someone still finding their feet. On a wedding day we bring spare equipment and arrive early, so small problems are dealt with before you notice them.

Belmont has no station of its own, but Harrow & Wealdstone (London Overground and Bakerloo line) and Canons Park (Jubilee line) are the nearest, and buses 186, H18 and H19 serve the area, which helps if guests are joining a shoot. We travel out to Belmont and cover the wider area, taking on location shoots throughout Stanmore, Kenton and Queensbury.

Every picture is edited before you receive it as a high-resolution file, and because the studio is only four miles from Belmont, collecting a print or talking through an album in person is easy. The gallery is yours to download and print, and framed pieces or an album can be added whenever you like.

Good to know

Photography in Belmont, frequently asked questions

Plain white, grey or black studio backdrops suit most company pages and LinkedIn profiles. For a softer, more modern look, we can work against a blurred office or outdoor background instead. The look can follow your brand guidelines so every portrait in the team matches.

We follow them rather than ask them to stay still. Play, running about and a bit of silliness give far more natural pictures than asking a small child to freeze. Sessions stay short with breaks, parents can join in, and for an outdoor session Kenton Recreation Ground, just south of Belmont, has open space and a children's playground for the pauses.

We do. For the food outlets and bars on Belmont Circle, the circular parade where it meets Kenton Lane, and for offices elsewhere in HA3 and HA7, that means product photography, branding images, corporate headshots and coverage of company functions. Files come ready for your website, print and marketing, whether they are catalogue shots from the studio or pictures from an evening event. Explain what the images are for and we will plan the shoot around that.

It happens a lot, and it need not spoil anything. Your pet gets time to sniff around and get used to us before we start, and you can stay beside them the whole time. For an outdoor session, the Belmont Trail along the old branch line or the woodland and meadow of Stanmore Country Park give a nervous dog room, and we would always rather go slowly than force a moment.

Yes, whether it is an anniversary lunch at home, a birthday at a restaurant on Belmont Circle or a company dinner elsewhere in Harrow. We keep out of the way, capturing speeches, details and guests talking without interrupting proceedings. If a few images are wanted the same evening for a company newsletter or a social post, say so beforehand and those are edited ahead of the rest.

Yes, each picture is edited individually by hand. Exposure, colour and tone are corrected picture by picture, with light retouching where it helps, so nothing looks over-processed. If a headshot is going on a company website or a casting profile, tell us and we can take the retouching a step further to the finish you have in mind.

Yes, for individuals and whole teams, whether the pictures are for LinkedIn, a company website, casting or personal branding. Under studio lights every face gets the same clean treatment, which keeps a team set consistent however many people sit. A sitting is short, with help on posture and expression, and you leave with pictures that show you at your best.
