Birthday Photoshoot and Party Photography in Harrow
Birthday portraits at the Northwood studio, a short trip from Harrow, or party photography wherever you celebrate in the borough.
The short answer
Where can I book a birthday photoshoot in Harrow?
Two ways. For a portrait or a friends' group shoot, the studio at The Broadway, 21 Joel St, Northwood HA6 1NU is about 3 miles from Harrow, a direct Metropolitan line ride from Harrow-on-the-Hill to Northwood Hills. For the party, we come to you: a house in Harrow, Wealdstone, Kenton or North Harrow, or a hired venue in the borough. Both are booked in advance, and a group shoot can be timed so everyone goes straight on to the celebration. Call or WhatsApp 07956 505383.
WE HAVE USED KAUSHIK FOR EVERY SPECIAL OCCASION WE HAVE CELEBRATED. FROM WEDDINGS TO BIRTHDAYS KAUSHIK HAS ALWAYS GONE OUT OF HIS WAY TO ENSURE HE CAPTURES EVERY LITTLE DETAIL OF OUR SPECIAL DAYS AND I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM AND HIS TEAM FOR ANY OCCASION OF ANY SIZE. THANK YOU KAUSHIK!
Kaushik Bathia took photos of highest quality of a pre-wedding celebration event at Bombay Brasserie. He also prepared an app of selected photos. He was very helpful indeed and I thoroughly recommend him
I required some portrait shots to be taken. Mr Bhatia, did an amazing job, Very friendly and extremely professional and knowledgeable.I would highly recommend.
The party
Photographing a birthday party in Harrow
At a party the best pictures are rarely posed: the moment the candles are lit, a grandparent's speech, cousins dancing. We agree a short list of must-have groups with you beforehand and spend the rest of the time watching for the real moments.
For a bigger celebration, Harrow School hires out venues for private events across 300 acres, with rooms for small groups up to several hundred guests. Whatever the venue, an edited gallery follows the party.
In the studio
Milestone portraits and group shoots
A studio sitting suits a milestone that deserves a proper portrait: a 21st, a 50th, a parent's 80th with the whole family. Friends' group shoots work well too, with everyone in coordinated colours and arranged so each face is clear.
From Harrow, the train is direct and the studio is two minutes from Northwood Hills station; for a group arriving by car, there is parking close by.
Outdoors
An outdoor birthday portrait in Harrow
In fine weather, a birthday portrait can be taken outdoors in Harrow instead: the churchyard on Harrow Hill with its view towards central London, or the grounds of Headstone Manor Park with its moat and footpaths.

On location: your home or garden; a hired room for the party, including the venues Harrow School hires out for private celebrations; and outdoor settings such as Harrow on the Hill and Headstone Manor Park for a portrait.
At the studio: about 3 miles away in Northwood. The Metropolitan line runs from Harrow-on-the-Hill to Northwood Hills without a change, and the studio is two minutes from the station.
