Excellent photography services before and during our wedding. Really enjoyed him being our photographer and he did a great job with the pictures. Working with him on the albums post wedding has been fantastic, he takes time to understand our ideas and portrays them in his work. Brilliant personality and very professional.

Nitesh P., Google review, 2016

We have been to Kaushik’s studio over many years for photos for passport renewals. He is very professional and has always taken the best pictures. We booked a family session recently and he did an amazing job and put us at ease for the portrait shots. Beautiful and artistic photos. We are very pleased with them. We would highly recommend his services.

Dee A., Google review, 2020

Kaushik was a great help and took some great photos for my partner and I. I would highly recommend for all your photography needs.

What we photograph in Hillingdon

From weddings to headshots

Hillingdon is London's second-largest borough, on the western edge. We photograph clients across Uxbridge and Hayes, at our Northwood studio, in family homes and gardens, and at churches, temples and reception venues. A maternity shoot, a newborn session and a first birthday can all be booked with the same photographer, so the pictures sit together as a set.

A graduation at Brunel University, a milestone birthday or a family reunion can be photographed at home, at the studio or outdoors, with portraits made to hang on the wall for years. Proposals, engagements, weddings, christenings and birthdays each get the same steady attention, whether the party is at home in UB8 or UB10 or at a venue elsewhere in the borough. One photographer can follow a family from proposal to wedding and on to a first baby and a first birthday.

Uxbridge is the borough's administrative headquarters and a significant commercial centre, and for businesses there we keep headshots, branding images and product shots consistent across a whole set. Headshots for a CV or website, acting and modelling portfolios, personal branding sets and product ranges are all lit cleanly so the files can be used straight away. For businesses, that means corporate events, conferences and staff headshots, along with product ranges for companies that sell online.

Why book us in Hillingdon

How we work for Hillingdon

A permanent studio in Northwood, open since 2001, and five European Kodak Gold Awards mean you are booking an established business that will still be here when you want prints or another sitting. After more than 25 years we plan for the things that can go wrong on a shoot day, carrying spare cards and camera bodies and building slack into tight schedules.

Hillingdon is about 5 miles from Northwood, and travel over that distance is not charged.

Albums are sequenced to tell the story in order and bound in the studio with materials chosen to last. When editing is finished your gallery opens online, and you can choose favourites and order prints, wall art or an album in your own time.

Good to know

Photography in Hillingdon, frequently asked questions

We let children set the pace. In a space like Hillingdon Court Park, with its playground beside the formal gardens, a game or a race usually gives better pictures than asking a child to freeze. Sessions stay short, breaks are built in, and parents are welcome to step into the frame when it helps. The pictures that come back should look like your child on a happy afternoon in the park, not a staged version of them.

Yes, a light retouch comes with every image as standard. Temporary marks such as a spot, a patch of redness or a loose hair are softened, and skin keeps its natural texture. The aim is a picture of you, not an airbrushed stranger. If you would like more than that, ask and we will arrange it.

Yes, business events are something we cover. For a conference in Uxbridge or an awards evening at a business park such as Stockley Park, we work quietly around the speakers and guests and record the atmosphere without getting in anyone's way. An edited set follows quickly, sized for your intranet, press use and social channels, so your team can post highlights while the event is still being talked about.

At the studio the choice is white, grey or black, plain backdrops that sit well on LinkedIn and on most company sites. For something softer, we can use your own office or an outdoor setting, thrown out of focus behind you. Whichever you choose, we keep it the same for every member of staff, so a team in Uxbridge or at Stockley Park reads as one set on the website.

Yes, anywhere in the borough, from Uxbridge and Ruislip to Hayes and West Drayton. For weddings, family sessions and commercial work we come to you, whether that is a home in UB10, the Civic Centre in Uxbridge or an office at Stockley Park, with all the equipment the job needs. Give us the address when you enquire and we will confirm the arrangements for your date.

Tell us what you have in mind, whether that is a ceremony at the Civic Centre in Uxbridge or a portrait in Hillingdon Court Park, and we will build a quote around it. Ring 07956 505383 or send a message with the kind of shoot, the address or venue in Hillingdon, your preferred date and any extras such as an album or prints. You will get an itemised price back in writing, and we answer every question before you commit to anything.

We do. Framing and enlargement are done at the Northwood studio, whether the picture is one of ours or a favourite from your own albums. We help you settle on size, finish and frame to suit both the picture and the wall it will hang on.
