In short

Camera ready for Havering

Kaushik Bathia is an award winning photographer based in nearby Northwood, photographing weddings, portraits, families, headshots and commercial work in Havering and across Greater London for over twenty five years. We start every shoot by putting you at ease, because a person who feels comfortable looks like themselves, and that ease is what carries through the whole set of pictures. Weddings, engagements, families, newborns, headshots, commercial shoots and pet portraits, plus framing and photo restoration, are all handled under one roof for Havering. In twenty five years we have photographed almost every kind of occasion, so we bring the same calm, prepared eye to a boardroom headshot as to a wedding. You can book a studio session or an on location shoot, add hand finished albums and prints, and we travel throughout Greater London for anything further afield.

What we photograph in Havering

What we photograph in Havering

Havering is an outer east London borough with country fringes. Family sessions in gardens and parks, business shoots on your premises, and ceremonies at venues make up much of our work around Redbridge, Barking and Dagenham. Multi day Asian weddings, intimate civil ceremonies and everything between them pass through our studio, and we prepare for each one as carefully as the last.

Families come to us for newborn sessions, then again for first birthdays, then for the group portrait at a milestone gathering, and we are glad to grow with you. Whether you are marking a graduation, a christening or a fiftieth birthday, we build a relaxed session that feels like time spent, not a queue of poses. 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.

On the business side we photograph professional headshots, corporate events, branding and product shots, and we also restore old photographs and take compliant passport and visa pictures at the studio. 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. Old photographs fade and tear, so we restore them, and we frame prints, enlarge favourites and take passport and visa pictures that meet the official requirements.

Served by Romford station on the Elizabeth line and London Overground, with the A12 and M25 skirting the borough. For portraits away from the celebration, Bedfords Park at Havering-atte-Bower, home to a red deer herd works beautifully, and Bower House of 1729 in the hilltop village of Havering-atte-Bower adds a real sense of place.

We keep things calm and personal from the very first message, taking the time to understand you before we ever pick up the camera. You are never left guessing. We confirm the plan, the timing and what to bring, then keep the day flexible enough to follow the mood.

Why Havering chooses us

Experience Havering can rely on

Five European Gold awards sit behind our work, but the reassurance we offer is quieter than that: turn up prepared, stay calm, and deliver, shoot after shoot. Our five European Gold awards reflect a standard we hold to on every job, not just the showcase ones, and that consistency is really what you are booking.

We regularly travel to Havering and cover on location sessions right across Redbridge, Barking and Dagenham. We come to Havering for on location work and photograph clients throughout Redbridge, Barking and Dagenham without any fuss.

We deliver a considered edit rather than every frame, keeping the strongest images so your gallery feels like a finished collection you are proud of. We take care over the finishing, retouching each chosen frame by hand and preparing files that look their best on screen and in print.

Good to know

Photography in Havering, frequently asked questions

We follow their lead rather than fight it. Some of our best images of children come from play, movement and a little silliness rather than asking them to freeze. We keep sessions short, allow breaks, and let parents join in when it helps. The result is natural photographs that genuinely look like your child.

Yes. For companies in Havering and across Greater London we photograph teams either at our Northwood studio or on site at your offices with portable lighting. We keep sittings brief so working days are barely interrupted, and match framing and background so every headshot looks part of one consistent set. Just tell us the head count and we will plan the day.

The first two weeks are ideal, as newborns tend to sleep deeply and curl naturally into those classic poses. That said, we happily photograph older babies too, simply adapting the session to their stage. It helps to provisionally book while you are still expecting, then confirm the date once your baby arrives.

You receive your finished images as high-resolution digital files, presented in an online gallery that is easy to view, download, and share with family or colleagues. From there you can order prints, enlargements, or an album through us whenever you like. If you prefer a physical handover such as a keepsake, we can arrange that too.

Keep it low key and positive. Aim for a session after a nap and a snack, so nobody is tired or hungry, and avoid building it up as a big event. Bring a favourite toy or comforter if it helps, and let us do the coaxing. Relaxed parents usually mean relaxed children on the day.

Our vouchers are typically valid for twelve months from the date of purchase, which gives the recipient plenty of time to arrange a session that suits them. If circumstances change, do speak to us, as we would always rather be flexible than see a thoughtful gift go unused. The terms are printed clearly on each voucher.

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.
