Serving Hitchin

A Sikh wedding photographer for Hitchin

Hitchin is a characterful market town. From grand banqueting venues to the calm of the darbar sahib, we are at home everywhere across Letchworth, Stevenage and Luton. From Hitchin we cover weddings right across Hertfordshire, at gurdwaras, hotels, marquees and banqueting suites.

We follow your family's Sikh customs closely and photograph the sehra bandi and the palla exactly as you keep them. We capture the emotion honestly, from the laughter of the jaggo night to the tears of the doli. We are a reassuring, familiar presence in the gurdwara, so the sangat relax and the day flows naturally.

Couples come to us from right across the Home Counties, and Hitchin is firmly on our patch. Hitchin is a characterful market town, and we know its gurdwaras well. We also cover nearby Borehamwood and Potters Bar. Close to Hitchin, we have worked at venues including The Barns at Redcoats, Hitchin Priory and Hitchin Town Hall.

Hitchin is a characterful market town with a medieval street plan, a twice weekly market and the well known lavender fields on its edge. Hitchin station is on the East Coast Main Line and Great Northern route to London King's Cross. When there is time for couple portraits, Hitchin Lavender at Cadwell Farm, and Windmill Hill above the town is a favourite, and St Mary's Church, the largest parish church in Hertfordshire makes a memorable setting.

Every tradition

Knowing the order of your day

We photograph the choora and kaleere given to the bride, and the quiet blessings of her elders. We keep our distance during the laavan and the prayers, and step in only for the joyful greetings. For families holding a Sri Akhand Path, we photograph the continuous reading with quiet reverence.

We capture the lively milni as the two families meet, with the garlands, the dhol and the embraces. We photograph the sehra bandi, when the groom's turban and sehra are tied, with all its ceremony. The dhol and bhangra of the jaggo are pure joy, and we capture every bit of the energy.

The whole celebration

From milni to doli

We can join you for a single event or follow the whole journey from the very first ritual. Tell us which events matter most and we will build the coverage around them.

We photograph the ceremony, the portraits and the reception in balance, so each is given its due. We always recommend a little time for couple portraits, often after the ceremony, away from the bustle.
