For anyone looking for a photographer in Hanwell, Kaushik Bathia offers award winning coverage of weddings, portraits, families and business, with a studio close by and more than twenty five years of experience. Our style is documentary first, which means we watch and wait for the real moment rather than staging it, then step in gently only when a little direction helps.

Families come back to us across the years, from wedding to newborn to school-age portraits, and there is something we value in being the one photographer who has watched it all unfold.

What we photograph in Hanwell

Which occasion brings you to Hanwell?

Hanwell is a historic west London suburb in the London Borough of Ealing, set between the River Brent and the Grand Union Canal. The studio in Northwood suits headshots and portraits, and for weddings and events we work at venues, churches and temples across West Ealing, Southall and Greenford. A classic church wedding, a registry office ceremony or a three day celebration at home, we photograph them all, along with the engagements and family gatherings that come before and after.

Weddings, engagements and family portraits make up much of our week, and we treat each booking as the single most important day it is to the people involved. From the first birthday to the fiftieth, and from a newborn's first week to a wedding day, we make the pictures a family looks back on for years. From a first birthday cake smash to a graduation gown, and from a maternity session to a newborn's earliest days, we are there for the moments a family wants to keep.

The studio does more than sittings, we frame and enlarge prints, restore photographs that time has damaged, and take passport and visa pictures that meet the specification. We shoot compliant passport and visa photos, frame and enlarge your favourite prints, and restore photographs that have faded, cracked or torn over the years. We photograph corporate away days, conferences and launch nights, produce headshots and branding sets, and shoot product ranges for the businesses that book us across the year.

Good to know

Photography in Hanwell, frequently asked questions

Both. Our studio in Northwood, HA6, gives us controlled lighting for headshots, newborns, portraits, and product work, which keeps results consistent whatever the weather. When a natural setting suits you better, we photograph on location at your home, venue, or a favourite outdoor spot. Many clients enjoy a mix of the two across a single booking.

Yes, photo restoration is one of our valued studio services. We work carefully on faded, torn, creased, or water-damaged prints, repairing them digitally so the picture is brought back to life while staying true to the original. Restored images can then be reprinted, enlarged, or framed. Bring your old photograph in and we will tell you honestly what is possible.

We do, and they pair beautifully with a newborn session later. The best time is usually around thirty to thirty four weeks, when your bump is nicely rounded but you are still comfortable. Parents from Hanwell and across Greater London come to the studio, where we provide gowns and guide you through flattering, relaxed poses.

The studio was established in 2001, giving us more than twenty-five years of professional experience behind the camera. In that time we have photographed over a thousand weddings and countless portraits, families, and commercial projects, and earned five European Gold awards. That depth of practice means we handle almost any brief calmly, and clients trust us to get it right.

Yes, event coverage is one of our regular services. We photograph conferences, awards evenings, launches, and celebrations discreetly, capturing speakers, guests, and the atmosphere without getting in the way. You receive a well-edited set suitable for internal use, press, and social media, usually turned around promptly so your team can share the highlights while the event is still fresh.

We certainly do. Pets are part of the family, so we offer sessions built around your animal's personality and comfort, in the studio or outdoors where they feel at ease. We are patient and used to working at their pace to get relaxed, characterful portraits. You are welcome to join the frame with them too, which many owners love.

Safety always comes before any pose. We keep the studio warm, work slowly, and never place a baby in a position that is not fully supported. Many poses you see online are actually two safe shots combined afterwards. A parent stays within reach at all times, and we follow your baby's cues throughout.
