A selection of recent weddings, Asian weddings, portraits, family and newborn sessions. Filter by category, and click any image to view it larger.
Every image here was taken by Kaushik Bathia, an award-winning photographer based at our Northwood studio in north-west London, with more than twenty-five years and over 1,200 celebrations behind the camera. The gallery spans Asian weddings of every tradition, classic English weddings, and relaxed portrait and family sessions, all photographed in the same warm, documentary style.
We work quietly and unobtrusively, so the day unfolds naturally and the photographs feel honest rather than posed.

Inside the portfolio
This gallery brings together recent work from across our studio: Asian and civil weddings, portrait and family sittings, and newborn sessions, all photographed by Kaushik Bathia in and around our Northwood base in north-west London. Use the filter bar above to narrow the images down to a single genre, or browse everything at once. Each photograph is a real commission rather than a stock library or a styled set-up, so what you see is genuinely representative of how we work and what you can expect from your own day. The collection leans documentary, favouring natural light, honest expressions and the small in-between moments that make a set of pictures still feel alive years later. Below we explain what each category contains, so the images carry proper context whether you are planning a wedding, arranging a portrait sitting or booking a first newborn shoot.
The wedding images span both Asian and civil traditions. Under Asian weddings you will find Hindu, Sikh, Gujarati, Muslim and Tamil celebrations photographed end to end, from the mehndi and sangeet through to the baraat, the ceremony and the reception, with all the colour, ritual and family emotion left intact. The civil and English weddings show church services, register-office ceremonies and country-house receptions across the capital and the Home Counties, captured quietly so the day unfolds naturally. See our full approach to Asian weddings and to wedding photography.
Portrait and family frames cover individual, couple and personal-branding sittings alongside multi-generation family groups. Some are made in the Northwood studio under controlled natural light; others are relaxed sessions in local parks and woods. They are unhurried and flattering, whether the brief is a headshot, a graduate portrait, a milestone birthday or three generations gathered in one frame. Explore portrait photography and family photography to see how these sessions come together.
The newborn images come from gentle, safety-first sessions in a baby's first weeks, often paired with maternity portraits taken before the arrival. These are calm, patient shoots led entirely by the baby, so nothing is rushed or forced and every set-up puts comfort first. If you are expecting, it helps to plan the timing early, which is why maternity portraits are usually made in the final weeks and newborns within the first two to three.
Alongside the celebrations, the studio photographs commercial and business work: professional headshots, personal branding, team portraits and product images for local companies. While this gallery focuses on weddings, portraits and family, the same considered lighting and calm direction carry across every commercial commission. Ask us about business photography when you get in touch.
Every photograph here was made by Kaushik Bathia, a Fellow of both the British Institute of Professional Photography and the Master Photographers Association and a winner of five European Kodak Gold Awards, working from our Northwood studio since 2001.

Absolutely. The warm, documentary style you see across the gallery is how we photograph every commission, whether it is a wedding, a portrait sitting or a newborn session. When you book, we plan the day around you, but the natural, unobtrusive approach that produced these images stays the same.
Yes. We are based at our Northwood studio in north-west London and photograph across the Home Counties, Hertfordshire and the Chilterns, and we travel UK-wide for weddings. Studio sittings take place in Northwood, while location and wedding coverage comes to you. See the areas we serve for details.
Portrait, family and newborn galleries are usually ready within one to two weeks. Weddings take a little longer because of the number of images and the care each one receives in editing. In every case you receive a private online gallery to view and choose from at your own pace.
