Serving Hatch End
Hatch End is a village-feel corner of north-west London. From grand banqueting venues to intimate temple ceremonies, we are at home everywhere across Eastcote, North Harrow. We photograph at temples, mandaps and banqueting halls right across Greater London.
We are calm and unhurried, gathering the whole story without ever getting in the way. We let the day unfold at its own pace and meet it with a quiet, watchful eye. We work discreetly around the pandit and the families, never intruding on a sacred moment.
Wherever your venues are across Hatch End and Greater London, we plan the route and the timings in advance. Hatch End is a village-feel corner of north-west London. We also photograph in nearby Havering and Hillingdon. Close to Hatch End, we have worked at venues including Grim's Dyke Hotel and Stanmore Golf Club.
A village-feel corner of Harrow forming the north-eastern part of Pinner, with tree-lined streets and period houses. Served by Hatch End station on the London Overground Lioness line in fare zone 6. We often take couples to Pinner Memorial Park nearby for a few quiet portraits, and Harrow Arts Centre and its Elliott Hall on Uxbridge Road is a lovely backdrop nearby.

What we offer
From the jaimala and kanyadaan to the pheras and saptapadi around the agni, every ritual and its timing understood.
From the Ganesh puja to the griha pravesh, every day of the celebration covered.
The haldi, mehndi and sangeet, where the warmest, most natural moments often happen.
Every tradition
We keep our distance during the most solemn moments and step in only for the joyful ones. We are ready for the giving of the sindoor and the tying of the mangalsutra. We photograph the couple's first steps as husband and wife around the sacred fire.
The vidaai, when the bride leaves her family home, is the most tender moment of the day. The day often opens with a Ganesh puja for an auspicious start, and we are there for it. The reception is the joyful finale, with speeches, the first dance and the bhangra.

The whole celebration
Many Hindu weddings begin days before the wedding with the Ganesh puja, the haldi and a mehndi. The celebration usually builds gradually, from the quiet of the puja to the exuberance of the sangeet.
We document the grand moments and the quiet ones in between, so nothing is lost. Just fifteen minutes is enough for a handful of timeless portraits near your venue.
Why choose us
We know the rhythm of a mandap ceremony by heart, so the sacred moments are always captured. Over a thousand celebrations have taught us when to step in close and when to stand quietly back.

Where we travel
We travel happily across Greater London and the surrounding counties for the whole celebration. Wherever your events take place across London and the surrounding area, we will be there in good time.
