We hired Kaushik for our wedding. He was a fantastic photographer, very professional and great to work with. Kaushik was very flexible with timings, he was patient, and produced amazing photos! We received our photos really quickly and the quality of them are really nice!! His communication throughout was really good and understood what I wanted. My family were also very happy with Kaushik and the photos.
Great service and fantastic photos taken of myself and family. We were given a very warm welcome by Kaushik and I feel that was also reflected in the photos he took. So very pleased with the photos and would highly recommend Kaushik.
I had an amazing experience with Kaushik Bathia. They were professional, friendly, and made me feel completely comfortable during the shoot. The photos came out beautifully — natural, vibrant, and exactly what I hoped for. Highly recommend
What we photograph in Highgate
Whatever Highgate needs photographing
Highgate is a historic hilltop village straddling the Haringey, Camden and Islington borders, prized for its views and heritage. Weddings of every faith and none, engagements and family milestones make up the celebration side of our work, and around Highgate that could mean a ceremony at Kenwood on Hampstead Lane or a register office wedding in Wood Green.
An engagement shoot is a good first session together, and the bluebells and wood anemones of Queen's Wood in spring, or the three spring-fed ponds of Waterlow Park, would make an easy setting for one. For a Muslim, Sikh, Hindu or other Asian wedding we go through the order of the day with your family beforehand, so we are ready for each custom at whichever north London venue you have chosen.
For portraits with a real sense of place, Highgate Cemetery on Swain's Lane is run by the Friends of Highgate Cemetery Trust, which has a dedicated line for photography requests, so we would ask permission there first. For a Highgate business we could photograph headshots or team portraits at your own office, cover a corporate event, or shoot branding and product work, with the same care over each.

Getting the camera to Highgate
Highgate stands on a hilltop some 136 metres above sea level, spread across the boroughs of Camden, Haringey and Islington at the north-eastern edge of Hampstead Heath. Highgate is a historic hilltop village straddling the Haringey, Camden and Islington borders, prized for its views and heritage, and Muswell Hill and Crouch End are nearby towns we serve as well. Around Highgate, venues include Lauderdale House on Highgate Hill, among others.
Highgate is one of London's most desirable villages, its High Street lined with Georgian houses, historic pubs and independent shops. The area is steeped in literary and cultural history. Highgate station (Northern line) gives direct links into the City and West End. For portraits away from the celebration, Waterlow Park and its terraced gardens is one option, with Highgate Cemetery adding a real sense of place.
For a lively family session outdoors, we agree the place, the time of day and the rough shape of it together, whether that is Pond Square, the village green at the heart of Highgate, or your own home.
Why book us in Highgate
Why book us for Highgate
The business has been running since 2001, so booking for Highgate means dealing with a business that has been running for more than two decades, not a season. Weather and timings on a wedding day rarely go exactly to plan, so we arrive early with spare equipment and a plan for rain, whether the day is at Lauderdale House or further afield.
Highgate is roughly 11 miles from Northwood. For work in Highgate, travel from Northwood is set out in your written quote before you book. We take bookings in Highgate and the towns around it, covering on location work throughout Muswell Hill, Archway and Hampstead.
Faded or torn family photographs can be restored as well, repaired with care and reprinted so they are ready to display again. Once the session is finished we edit each frame closely and send a link to a private online gallery holding the full set in high resolution.

Good to know
Photography in Highgate, frequently asked questions
Absolutely. Yes, weddings are central to our work, and nearby venues include Lauderdale House in Waterlow Park, dating from 1582, and Kenwood on Hampstead Lane, which hosts both ceremonies and receptions. We would cover the day in a relaxed, documentary way, from the preparations through to the evening. The north and east of Highgate come under Haringey, whose register office is at George Meehan House, 294 High Road, Wood Green (N22 8YX), and our wedding pages set out coverage, timings and albums.
We keep the look warm and natural, far from the stiff school line-up many parents remember. Afterwards there are prints, digital files and gifts to choose from, and we keep the sitting relaxed and fun for the children.
The cost depends on the kind of shoot, the time it takes and whether you would like prints or an album. For Highgate we would talk the options through and send a clear, itemised figure before you commit, with travel from Northwood written into it.
Yes, we cover business and corporate events. Conferences, awards evenings, launches and parties are photographed discreetly, so speakers and guests are recorded without being interrupted. You receive an edited set suited to internal use, press and social media, turned round quickly so the highlights can go out while the event is still fresh.
Nearly all of them, with one photographer: weddings, family and newborn sessions, headshots, portraits, pets, and commercial or event work.
We do: product photography, branding imagery, corporate headshots and coverage of company functions for businesses in and around N6. Tell us what the pictures need to achieve and we will scope the shoot to match.
