Superb and highly professional wedding photographer. We had the pleasure of working with Kaushik Bathia Photography for a recent wedding at Orchardleigh Estate.
I attended Northwood Hills Studio-Kaushik Bathia photography with my family and I had the most amazing time. My family was made to feel extremely relaxed and welcomed, and the result was some fabulous images He was organised and professional and kept everything stress free. A very enjoyable day out with fantastic photos as a result.
An amazing experience from start to finish. The photographer was professional, friendly, and made us feel completely at ease. The photos perfectly captured genuine moments between us and turned out even better than we expected. Highly recommend for couples looking for high-quality photography.
What we photograph in Colindale
What shall we photograph for you in NW9?
Clients come to our Northwood studio for portraits, and we travel out to gardens, parks, business premises and venues right across Edgware, Hendon and The Hyde. Cake smashes, maternity sessions, newborns and first steps are all moments we would photograph for families in Colindale, at the studio or outdoors.
Whether your wedding is a short civil service or a week of Asian celebrations, the coverage is shaped around its own rhythm. Colindale was recorded at the 2011 census as the most ethnically diverse part of Barnet, and we prepare as carefully for a multi-day Asian wedding as for a short civil ceremony. A graduation from Barnet and Southgate College's Colindale campus, a big birthday or a family reunion deserves more than a phone snap, and portraits from those days are made to last on the wall.
At the studio we restore damaged photographs, reprint and enlarge them, frame them, and take passport and visa pictures to the current standard. For professionals and organisations in Colindale, home to the RAF Museum, the Peel Centre and Barnet and Southgate College's campus, we make LinkedIn and acting headshots, cover corporate events and conferences, and shoot branding and product work. Event coverage, headshots and product photography are open to Colindale businesses, from a small shop's range on the Edgware Road to a formal boardroom portrait.

Across Colindale
Close by for Colindale
Colindale lies about 8 miles north-west of Charing Cross, with the RAF Museum London on the site of the old London Aerodrome, and every kind of session we offer is available here. Colindale is a fast-growing residential district on the Edgware branch of the Northern line, and from Northwood we also serve Burnt Oak and Edgware. Wedding venues near Colindale include Cavendish Banqueting Hall on the Edgware Road.
Colindale sits within the London Borough of Barnet and has been transformed by large new-build developments around Grahame Park and Colindale Gardens. It is home to a mixed, international community. Colindale station, on Colindale Avenue in Zone 4, is on the Edgware branch of the Northern line, and the Mayor of London approved funding for an upgrade that adds a lift for step-free access. For pre-wedding and couple portraits, Montrose Playing Fields is one option, with the RAF Museum London on Grahame Park Way close by for a striking backdrop.
Planning stays simple: we agree timings, a location such as Heybourne Park or Silkstream Park, and any must-have shots, so the session feels unhurried. Session times are flexible, so we can work around nap times, shifts or the light you prefer, including Sunday afternoons when the studio opens from 13:00.
Why book us in Colindale
Why book us in Colindale
Because one studio handles weddings, newborns, families, pets, headshots and commercial shoots, you will not need to find someone new as your plans change. Twenty-five years across weddings, portraits and commercial work mean a christening, a product shot and a headshot all get the same practised attention.
We travel to Colindale for shoots, and the studio is a short drive away for anyone who would rather come to us.
Your edited, high resolution gallery arrives online a week or two after the session, and albums, prints and framing are all handled at the studio. When editing is done, browse the gallery in your own time, choose favourites and order prints, wall art or an album whenever suits.

Good to know
Photography in Colindale, frequently asked questions
Yes, sessions can be booked together or one after another. So a wedding one year and a newborn session the next can be arranged with the same studio. Sittings can be combined too, a family portrait alongside a newborn session for example, keeping the look consistent across your images.
Yes, restoration is carried out at our Northwood studio. Whether a print is faded, torn, creased or water-damaged, it is repaired digitally so the image returns without losing its original character, ready to collect on your next trip from NW9. Once restored, an image can be reprinted, enlarged or framed. Bring the original to Joel Street and we will tell you honestly what can be done.
By car it is about 7 miles from Colindale, with parking close to the studio, and the Tube is an easy alternative. We send directions when you book, whichever way you travel from NW9. Leave a little slack in the journey so you reach Joel Street relaxed rather than rushed.
Go for outfits you are comfortable in that coordinate without matching. Plain, soft colours usually work best, as large logos and busy prints pull the eye away from faces. Pick tones that sit well together, and if we are outdoors by the pond in Heybourne Park, dress for the weather. If you are unsure, we are glad to look at options with you before the day.
Yes, product work is shot in the studio, where lighting and backgrounds stay consistent from one item to the next. Product images for online listings, catalogues and marketing can be shot on clean white or styled to match your brand. Bring the products and tell us where the images will appear, and we will produce crisp, accurate results.
Not every exposure; for a Colindale booking we send a curated, finished selection. Duplicates, blinks and missed glances are taken out, and the strongest frames are finished properly. The result is a gallery you will use, not hundreds of near-identical files.
Yes, graduation portraits are something we are glad to do. Bring your gown to the studio, or we can photograph you with family outdoors in Colindale Park, and either way the session stays relaxed. Framed graduation prints or a small album make a thoughtful gift for parents and grandparents.
