Serving Brighton
Brighton is a vibrant seaside city with grand venues. We are comfortable in every setting in Hove, Worthing and Shoreham, from a large walima to a quiet nikah at home. Right across East Sussex we photograph the colour and devotion of every event, large and small.
We photograph the solemn nikah as faithfully as the henna and dancing of the mehndi night. We keep an eye on prayer times and the wishes of both families as the nikah and walima unfold. We are mindful of modesty throughout, and photograph the gender-segregated celebrations with sensitivity.
From our London base we travel across East Sussex for Muslim weddings, and Brighton, a vibrant seaside city with grand venues, is a familiar destination. We also photograph in nearby Bournemouth and Crawley. Brighton and the towns around it offer venues such as The Royal Pavilion, Harbour Hotel Brighton and Hotel du Vin Brighton, all familiar to us.
Brighton is a lively East Sussex seaside city known for its Regency architecture, The Lanes and inclusive culture. Brighton railway station is on the Brighton Main Line with fast trains to London Victoria and London Bridge. We often take couples to Preston Park, the city's largest park with lawns, a walled rock garden and mature trees for a few quiet portraits, and The Royal Pavilion, an exotic Indo Saracenic royal palace built for the Prince Regent is a lovely backdrop nearby.

What we offer
The agreeing of the mahr and the closing dua of the nikah, photographed quietly and respectfully.
From the morning preparations to the last dance of the walima, every event told as one story.
The groom's family walima feast, from the grand entrance to the last dance, captured in full.
Every tradition
The exchange of consent and the joining of the two families is captured as it happens. We are mindful of every family's customs at the nikah, Pakistani, Bengali, Arab or Turkish. We photograph the signing of the nikah-nama by the couple and their witnesses with quiet attention.
The mehndi night is full of colour, music and dancing, and often holds the warmest moments of all. The pre-wedding events are often where the most natural photographs come from, and we give them full attention. The mangni, the engagement that begins the journey, is one we are glad to cover when families ask.

The whole celebration
The days before the wedding often hold the most relaxed, candid moments of the whole celebration. The celebration usually builds gradually, from the quiet of the mangni to the exuberance of the mehndi.
From the nikah to the last guest, we follow the whole day at its own pace. The story often ends with the rukhsati, as the bride leaves with the groom.
Why choose us
We understand how much the nikah means, and we photograph the mahr and the dua with the care they deserve. Our long experience means a calm presence at the mosque whatever the day brings.
We are glad to discuss your masjid, your walima venue and the journey between them when you enquire. We photograph across East Sussex regularly, and travelling to a nikah in Brighton is second nature.

Where we travel
A female photographer for the ladies' side travels with us wherever your mehndi and walima are held. We factor in travel and prayer times carefully, so we are always in position for the signing of the nikah-nama.
