Kaushik has created the perfect wedding albums for us to share with our loved ones forever, the family love them and we couldn't have asked for more. Beyond our expectations. A true professional, great communication and an understanding individual throughout the whole process. Thank you!!!
I went into the photoshoot with reservations, as I wasn’t sure how well my youngest child (3 years) would be in a photoshoot situation. As soon as walking into the shoot and seeing how Kaushik interacted with the little ones, I was immediately put at ease. He amazingly kept my child smiling and laughing for an hour, where I can’t seem to manage to do for 30 seconds!
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 Finchley
Weddings, families and business photography across Finchley
Finchley is a largely residential district of north London in the London Borough of Barnet. An engagement shoot is often a couple's first session with us, and a walk along the Dollis Valley Greenwalk beside Dollis Brook would make a relaxed setting a season before the wedding.
A graduation, a milestone birthday or a family reunion in Finchley deserves more than a phone snap, and we would make portraits of it that hold up on the wall for years. A multi-day Asian wedding and an intimate civil ceremony in the Drawing Room, the Salon or the Dining Room at Stephens House & Gardens would each get the same careful preparation. From an engagement to a wedding at Hendon Town Hall in The Burroughs, where Barnet's register office moved in 2017, and on to a first baby's portraits, we can photograph each stage.
We also take compliant passport and visa photos, frame and enlarge prints, and restore old family photographs that have faded, cracked or torn. Whether it is a single headshot or a full product catalogue for a business near Finchley Central on the Northern line, we scale the session to fit and keep the same commercial standard.

Across Finchley
Travelling to Finchley from Northwood
Finchley has three town centres, North Finchley, East Finchley and Finchley Church End, and we offer every kind of photography across all of them. From Northwood we also serve neighbouring Muswell Hill and Mill Hill. Around Finchley, settings include Stephens House & Gardens on East End Road and artsdepot at Tally Ho Corner, which has spaces for hire.
Finchley is a well-connected suburb with plenty of open space. Green spaces such as Victoria Park and the ten-acre grounds of Stephens House sit alongside busy shopping streets. Finchley Central is a Zone 4 Northern line station, where the High Barnet branch and the short branch to Mill Hill East divide. Victoria Park off Ballards Lane would suit a few quiet couple portraits, and Stephens House & Gardens on East End Road offers another backdrop close by.
After you book, we keep in touch and answer questions so you feel ready well before the day.

Good to know
Photography in Finchley, frequently asked questions
Yes, a light retouch comes with every portrait and headshot as standard. Spots, redness or a stray hair are softened, but skin texture is kept so a Finchley headshot still looks real. The goal is that you look like yourself on a good day, never airbrushed into a stranger. If you want heavier retouching, just ask and we can arrange it.
We work in a relaxed, documentary way, whether the ceremony is at Stephens House & Gardens or Hendon Town Hall, so the day never feels staged. Moments, expressions and details are photographed as they happen, and we step in gently only for the family groups you want. The finished set tells your day honestly, with the same care that earned five European Kodak Gold Awards.
Yes, albums are something we put real care into. Each fine-art album is hand finished, built to last and laid out to tell the story of the day or session. We help you choose the images so the book reads in order.
Yes. Where it makes sense we can combine sittings, such as a family portrait alongside a newborn session, so the look stays consistent.
We plan around the light and the setting, whether that is a morning among the Bothy walls and rockery at Stephens House or an evening event at artsdepot, so the shoot runs smoothly. That planning is backed by more than twenty-five years of experience and five European Kodak Gold Awards.
Yes, family sessions are a big part of what we do. For an outdoor family session we would suggest Victoria Park off Ballards Lane, Finchley's first public park, or the gardens at Stephens House & Gardens on East End Road, which handles its own photography bookings, and we keep the pace unhurried so children relax. What we are after is warm, natural portraits of your family as it is this year, pictures you will want on the wall.
Each delivered image is edited by hand for colour, exposure and tone so the whole set sits together. Colours stay natural rather than heavily filtered, so the photos look like real life. Any frame picked for an album or a large print is given extra attention.
