Documentary Storytelling
Calm, unobtrusive coverage that captures the day as you lived it, never staged.
Hindu and Gujarati wedding photographer in Forest Gate, documenting the milni, the jaimala, the pheras and the family blessings, with respect for your traditions and an eye for natural beauty.
Serving Forest Gate
Forest Gate is a diverse east London neighbourhood. Across East Ham, Stratford and Manor Park and the rest of Greater London, we cover the baraat, the ceremony and the reception with a careful eye. We cover the whole of London and the surrounding area, and Forest Gate and the towns around it are well known to us.
Our approach is relaxed and documentary, so you can be present in your own wedding. We balance documentary coverage with a few quiet portraits, so your album holds both energy and elegance. We take the time beforehand to understand your customs and the order of your events.
Much of our work takes us across Greater London; Forest Gate, a diverse east London neighbourhood, and the towns around it, including East Ham, Stratford and Manor Park, are very familiar to us. We also cover nearby Tooting and Croydon.

Every tradition
For Gujarati families, we know the hastamelap and the four mangal pheras and photograph each as you keep it. The saptapadi, the seven steps the couple take together, seals the marriage, and we photograph it with reverence. The most sacred parts of the day are captured from a respectful distance with a quiet long lens.
We capture the groom's arrival in procession, on a horse or in a car, surrounded by dancing family. We photograph the milni, when the two families meet, with all of its warmth. The mehndi night, the sangeet and the haldi each carry their own mood, and we photograph them all.

The whole celebration
The sangeet brings an evening of music and dance before the wedding day itself. Tell us which events matter most and we will build the coverage around them.
We stay through the evening to capture the reception, from the grand entrance to the last dance. From the morning preparations to the final dance, we give every part of the day the same care.
Why choose us
We know the rhythm of a mandap ceremony by heart, so the sacred moments are always captured. We understand how much the day means, and we photograph it with the care it deserves.
We will travel to your mandap, your reception and your pre-wedding events, wherever they are held. We photograph weddings throughout London and the surrounding area, and Forest Gate is firmly within the area we cover.

Where we travel
We are London-based but rarely in London; much of our work takes us across London and the surrounding area. We travel happily across Greater London and the surrounding counties for the whole celebration.
