Serving Lewisham
Lewisham is a south-east London borough. Couples come to us from across London and the surrounding area, and Greenwich, Bromley are firmly on our patch. We photograph nikah ceremonies at mosques, banqueting halls and homes right across Greater London.
Our approach is quietly documentary, so you can pray the dua and say the ijab-e-qubool without a lens in your face. We are at ease with multi-day Muslim celebrations and intimate nikah ceremonies at home alike. We take time beforehand to understand your customs, from the agreeing of the mahr to the order of the walima.
Couples come to us from right across London and the surrounding area, and Lewisham is firmly on our patch. Lewisham is a south-east London borough, and we know its venues well. We also cover nearby Merton and Newham. Around Lewisham we regularly photograph at JK Banquet Hall and The Garden of Lewisham, among others.
A diverse south-east London borough that was named London Borough of Culture for 2022. Served by Lewisham station and DLR terminus, with the A20 running through the borough. When there is time for couple portraits, Manor House Gardens in Lee is a favourite, and The Horniman Museum and Gardens at Forest Hill makes a memorable setting.

What we offer
Beautifully bound albums and fine prints designed around your favourite nikah and walima images.
Hand-finished albums that hold the whole story of your nikah, mehndi and walima.
The agreeing of the mahr and the closing dua of the nikah, photographed quietly and respectfully.
Every tradition
The signatures of the witnesses that complete the nikah-nama are captured with care. We work quietly around the imam so the nikah is never disturbed. We are ready for the agreeing of the mahr, the gift from the groom to the bride.
The reception and walima are the joyful finale, with speeches, family and dancing. We are glad to cover a single event or the whole multi-day celebration. From the henna of the mehndi to the music of the dholki, the events set the tone for the wedding.

The whole celebration
The celebration usually builds gradually, from the quiet of the mangni to the exuberance of the mehndi. The pre-wedding events often span several days, each with its own mood.
We photograph the ceremony, the portraits and the reception in balance, so each is given its due. We stay through the evening to capture the walima, from the grand entrance to the last dance.
Why choose us
Families return to us because we treat the nikah, the walima and the mehndi each as they deserve. We understand how much the nikah means, and we photograph the mahr and the dua with the care they deserve.
Wherever your mehndi, nikah and walima take place across London and the surrounding area, we will be there in good time. A female photographer for the ladies' side travels with us wherever your mehndi and walima are held.

Where we travel
We travel happily across Greater London and the surrounding counties for the baraat, the nikah and the walima. Multi-venue days from the masjid to the banqueting hall are never an issue; we plan the route and prayer times in advance.
