In short
Kaushik Bathia has photographed clients across Greater London for over twenty five years, and families and businesses in Hornsey choose him for calm, natural photography across every occasion, backed by five European Gold awards. We read the room before we shoot, matching our energy to yours, quiet where quiet suits and lively where it does not, so the pictures reflect how the day actually felt. We photograph everything in Hornsey, from weddings of every tradition and family portraits to newborn sessions, professional headshots, commercial work and pet photography. 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. Studio sittings and on location shoots are both available, and we travel across Greater London from our Northwood base, so wherever you are it is an easy journey.
What we photograph in Hornsey
Hornsey is a long-established district in the London Borough of Haringey that gave its name to the wider historic parish. We are set up for studio portraits in Northwood and for on location shoots at parks, wedding venues, churches and temples across Crouch End, Wood Green and Stroud Green. We photograph the arrival of a first child, the party for a first birthday and the group shot at a christening, keeping the day's small moments as well as the big ones.
Graduations, milestone birthdays and family reunions all deserve more than a phone snap, and we make portraits from these days that hold up on the wall for decades. 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. Weddings sit at the heart of what we do, but so do engagement shoots, christenings, family portraits and the milestone birthdays that mark another year for the people you love.
Actors need a portfolio, professionals need a LinkedIn headshot, and businesses need branding and product images, and we make all three at the studio or on location. We photograph corporate events and conferences, produce branding and product images for small businesses, and turn out crisp professional headshots for CVs, websites and acting portfolios. Commercial clients ask for product shots, branding images, conference coverage and staff headshots, and we deliver files that work across print, web and social without fuss.

Why Hornsey chooses us
The awards are nice, but what usually reassures our clients most is that we have been photographing this community for twenty five years and are not going anywhere. We are one of the longer-standing studios around, open since 2001, and that continuity means references are easy to find and the work speaks for a couple of decades, not a season.
Our base in Northwood means Hornsey is an easy drive, and we photograph clients across Greater London. Getting to Hornsey from the studio is quick, and we cover on location shoots right across Crouch End, Wood Green and Stroud Green.
Prints, canvases and framed pieces are available in a range of sizes, so the photographs you love do not stay hidden on a hard drive. 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
That is very common and nothing to worry about. We give your pet time to explore and get used to us before any real photography begins, and we let you stay close throughout. Working quietly and without rushing usually settles even anxious animals, and we would rather take longer than force a stressful moment.

Absolutely. Weddings are at the heart of what we do, with well over a thousand celebrated across our years in practice. We cover the whole day in a relaxed, documentary style, from morning preparations to the evening.

The studio was established in 2001, giving us more than twenty-five years of professional experience behind the camera. In that time we have photographed over a thousand weddings and countless portraits, families, and commercial projects, and earned five European Gold awards. That depth of practice means we handle almost any brief calmly, and clients trust us to get it right.
Yes, light retouching is included as standard. We soften temporary marks such as spots, redness or a stray hair, while keeping skin texture looking real. Our aim is for you to look like yourself on a good day, not airbrushed into someone else. More detailed retouching can always be arranged if you ask.
Yes, dogs are welcome in the studio, and we are only a short drive from Hornsey. The space is enclosed and calm, which helps nervous animals settle before we begin. If your dog prefers the outdoors, we can shoot in a nearby park instead. Either way, we work at a speed that suits them.
We certainly do. Pets are part of the family, so we offer sessions built around your animal's personality and comfort, in the studio or outdoors where they feel at ease. We are patient and used to working at their pace to get relaxed, characterful portraits. You are welcome to join the frame with them too, which many owners love.
