Serving Watford
Watford is a lively Hertfordshire town with banqueting venues. We travel throughout Hertfordshire for nikah ceremonies, and Bushey, Garston and Oxhey are all familiar to us. From Watford we cover weddings right across Hertfordshire, at mosques, hotels, marquees and banqueting suites.
We are calm and unhurried at the mosque, gathering the whole nikah without ever getting in the imam's way. We document each event as it happens, from the mehndi to the walima, so your gallery feels true to the day you lived. We move softly around the imam through the nikah, capturing the real moments rather than staging them.
We have photographed Muslim weddings throughout Bushey, Garston and Oxhey for many years, and Watford, a lively Hertfordshire town with banqueting venues, is a familiar and welcome destination. We also cover nearby Carpenders Park and Maple Cross. Around Watford we regularly photograph at The Grove, The Langley Banqueting Suites and Hilton Watford, among others.
A lively Hertfordshire town just outside London, with a large shopping centre and a well-known football club. Served by Watford Junction on the West Coast Main Line and Watford station on the Metropolitan line. For portraits away from the celebration, Cassiobury Park, a large historic park with the River Gade and canal works beautifully, and Vicarage Road, home of Watford Football Club, with the Warner Bros. Studio Tour at nearby Leavesden adds a real sense of place.

What we offer
The proposal and acceptance said before the imam, the heart of the nikah, captured with reverence.
A sneak preview of the nikah soon after the wedding, with your full gallery and album to follow.
The groom's joyful baraat arrival with his family, photographed with all of its energy.
Every tradition
We know the order of the nikah by heart, so we are always in position for each moment. We are mindful of every family's customs at the nikah, Pakistani, Bengali, Arab or Turkish. We work quietly around the imam so the nikah is never disturbed.
The mangni, the engagement that begins the journey, is one we are glad to cover when families ask. The rukhsati, when the bride leaves her family home, is the most tender moment of the day. We photograph the sanchaq and the exchange of gifts between the families with all of their warmth.

The whole celebration
Many families hold a mangni long before the wedding, and a mehndi the night before the nikah. We arrive in good time for each pre-wedding event and stay until the celebrations wind down.
We know the order and timing of the wedding day, so we are always in position for each moment. From the nikah to the last guest, we follow the whole day at its own pace.
Why choose us
We are award-winning photographers with a long history of Muslim and Asian weddings, from the baraat to the walima. A thousand weddings in, we still find every walima unique, and photograph it that way.
We cover the whole of the UK for Muslim weddings, so distance never stands between us and your nikah. We are London-based but rarely in London; much of our work takes us to mosques and banqueting halls across the Home Counties.

Where we travel
Wherever your mehndi, nikah and walima take place across the Home Counties, we will be there in good time. A female photographer for the ladies' side travels with us wherever your mehndi and walima are held.

Good to know
Yes. We stay through the evening to capture the walima in Watford, from the grand entrance and the speeches to the family gatherings and the last dance, right through to the final guest to leave the floor.
Absolutely. We regularly cover the mangni, the mehndi, the dholki, the nikah and the walima in Watford, and are glad to bring additional photographers, including a female photographer for the ladies' side, for the largest celebrations.
Yes. Many Muslim weddings have segregated celebrations, so we can bring a female second photographer to cover the ladies' side fully, discreetly and with sensitivity to your family's wishes, so the women's celebrations are never left unphotographed.
Of course. We regularly photograph weddings that blend cultural events such as the mehndi and the baraat with the religious nikah, and we cover fusion and mixed-faith celebrations with care, respecting the traditions of both families throughout the day.
Yes. We work with respect for modesty, prayer times and your family's wishes throughout the day, keeping our coverage discreet, and a female photographer is available for the ladies' side on request so everyone feels at ease.
