Afterwards, favourites are chosen from an online gallery, with no pressure. Chosen portraits get light-handed retouching and are supplied for screen and print, and albums, canvases, prints and frames can be ordered. Prices are shared on request. Sessions are booked in advance.

An amazing experience from start to finish. The photographer was professional, friendly, and made us feel completely at ease. The photos perfectly captured genuine moments between us and turned out even better than we expected. Highly recommend for couples looking for high-quality photography.
Had such an amazing experience with Kaushik Bathia Photography 📸 The whole shoot felt super fun and comfortable, and the pictures turned out better than I could have imagined! Highly recommend if you want natural vibes and stunning shots.
My two sisters and I ‘ the golden girls’ had a great, hilarious photo session. Kaushik is very professional and took some amazing photos especially when we were laughing so much trying to get up from the floor. Can’t wait to see ‘air brushed’ version. Well at 75 you need a little help. Definitely recommend Kashuik. He enjoyed our craziness!

Whetstone gives a portrait two quite different moods within a short distance of the High Road. On one side lies Totteridge Fields, off Hendon Wood Lane, a nature reserve of over thirty hedged fields beside the Dollis Brook, whose long grass, hedges and big skies give a soft, rural portrait that barely feels like London. Closer in, Swan Lane Open Space on Woodside Lane and Brook Farm off the High Road both have water features and a wilder, wildlife-friendly edge, while Friary Park, just south in Friern Barnet, offers formal Edwardian gardens for something more composed. In open fields, the best light comes early or late, when the sun is low and warm; at midday, look for the shade of a hedge. Wear colours that stand out from green and gold, such as deep blue, burgundy or cream, and sturdy shoes if the ground is soft. Kaushik guides every pose, and you choose your favourites afterwards from an online gallery, without pressure.
