Thank you for capturing our special day so well and creating beautiful photos that we will treasure forever. We love our stunning wedding album! You took the time to get to know us from the pre-shoot right up until the wedding day and made us feel comfortable and relaxed, and we had a lot of fun along the way especially with your silly little jokes to get us to laugh!
We had a large family photoshoot to do which can always be tricky. Kaushik was absolutely fantastic with a myriad of toys and noises to get smiles out of the little ones (they are still talking about the mouse on a stick!). Kaushik took the various different combinations we wanted and positioned each one expertly.
I did a fabulous photoshoot with Kaushik and thoroughly enjoyed it! I was very nervous, but he made me feel at ease! I will hopefully return for another one at a later date!
What we photograph in Eastcote
Weddings, portraits, business and beyond
Whether it is a headshot at the studio or a wedding in Eastcote or neighbouring Pinner, we photograph clients in homes, gardens and premises alike. That might be a ceremony in the licensed stables at Eastcote House Gardens, a maternity sitting in Northwood or a cake smash for a first birthday; the milestones differ, and the care we bring to each does not.
A civil ceremony at Hillingdon Register Office in Uxbridge and a large Asian celebration ask quite different things of a photographer, and more than twenty five years in the job covers both. Proposals, engagements, christenings and birthdays each get the same steady attention, whether they happen at home in Eastcote or at a hired venue.
For businesses there are headshots, personal branding, event coverage and product photography for online shops, and pet portraits and print services round things off. Businesses in Eastcote can book headshots, event coverage or product photography, and the studio also restores old prints and takes passport and visa photos.

Across Eastcote
Eastcote, a short trip from Northwood
Every kind of shoot we offer is available in Eastcote, a place with a longer story than its streets suggest: the Hawtrey family settled here around 1525, and during the Second World War it housed an outstation of Bletchley Park. Eastcote is a leafy Hillingdon suburb, and from Northwood we also serve Ruislip Manor and Ruislip. Within Eastcote itself, The Cavendish and the licensed stables at Eastcote House Gardens both host weddings.
Field End Road, a planned interwar shopping parade built as Metroland reached Eastcote, is the suburb's main street of shops. Eastcote Underground station serves both the Metropolitan and Piccadilly lines in Zone 5. For relaxed couple photographs, Eastcote House Gardens is one option, and the Grade II listed station, rebuilt to a Charles Holden design in the late 1930s, is a distinctly local backdrop.
A quick phone call is normally enough to plan an Eastcote session. One practical point: Hillingdon Council requires permission for professional photos in its parks, including Eastcote House Gardens, so we would sort that out with you before the day. With young children we build in snack stops and breaks, and the walled garden at Eastcote House Gardens gives little ones a contained space to wander.
Why book us in Eastcote
Credentials you can check
Since opening in 2001 the studio has earned five European Kodak Gold Awards, Kaushik holds FBIPP and FMPA fellowships, and the practice is rated 4.8 from 580+ Google reviews, all of which you can check before you book. Every job gets spare cameras and duplicate cards, because a wedding day or a first birthday cannot be staged again, and carrying the extra weight is a small price for that.
From the studio we travel to Eastcote for shoots and take on location work in nearby Pinner and Hatch End as well.
If you would like a picture for the wall, we advise on size, framing and finish to suit the room. Albums, framed prints and large wall pieces are made to order, turning favourite frames into something to hold or hang.

Photography in Eastcote, frequently asked questions
No; Eastcote is about 1.6 miles from the Northwood studio, so travel is not charged for sessions there. If a day also takes in a venue some distance away, any cost for that part is agreed with you in writing beforehand.
Nearly every kind of shoot in Eastcote can be booked with one photographer, from one studio. Weddings, family and newborn sittings, headshots, portraits, pets, and commercial or event photography are all on offer. Framing, enlargements, restoration and passport or visa photos are done at the studio too.
Yes, singly or with brothers and sisters, usually at the studio and sometimes at a nursery by arrangement. We keep it warm and natural, nothing like the rigid school rows of years gone by. Afterwards families can order prints, digital files or gifts, and the sitting itself is kept calm so the children enjoy it.
Getting started is simple. Ring 07956 505383 or message us through the website with a rough idea of the shoot, whether at home in HA5, in Eastcote House Gardens or at The Cavendish, and the dates you have in mind. We then suggest a session, confirm the details in writing and hold the date with a small deposit. After that the planning is done together, so the day itself is not rushed.
Yes, and it sits naturally alongside a newborn sitting a few months later. Around thirty to thirty four weeks tends to work best, when the bump shows well and standing for a while is still comfortable. The session takes place at the Northwood studio, where gowns are provided and we guide you through relaxed, flattering poses.
Yes, for individuals and whole teams, sized for LinkedIn, company websites, casting profiles and personal branding. In the studio the light is fixed, so a colleague photographed months later still matches the rest of the page. Sittings are short and unhurried, with gentle direction on posture and expression so the finished headshot looks like you on a good day.
The group list is agreed beforehand, so nobody is left standing about. Everyone goes in first, then we break into smaller sets such as grandparents with grandchildren, which keeps people busy. These sessions suit a weekend when relatives are visiting, and a busy room is organised calmly.
