Sikh Wedding Photographer in Hounslow

Serving Hounslow

A Sikh wedding photographer for Hounslow

Hounslow is a hugely diverse west London borough with many Asian wedding venues. Couples come to us from across London and the surrounding area, and Heston, Cranford and Isleworth are firmly on our patch. Sikh weddings often begin early in the gurdwara, and we are always in good time for the milni.

We follow your family's Sikh customs closely and photograph the sehra bandi and the palla exactly as you keep them. Our approach is relaxed and documentary, so you can be present in your own Anand Karaj rather than posing for it. We arrive early for the gurdwara start, stay through the doli and keep pace with the reception.

From our London base we travel across Greater London for Sikh weddings, and Hounslow, a hugely diverse west London borough with many Asian wedding venues, is a familiar destination. We also photograph in nearby Ilford and East Ham. Local Sikh wedding venues we know near Hounslow include Heston Hyde Hotel, Honeymoon Banqueting and Takaa Tak Banqueting Hall.

A diverse west London borough close to Heathrow, with a busy High Street and a large mix of communities. Served by Hounslow Central, East and West stations on the Piccadilly line, with the A4 Great West Road running through it. When there is time for couple portraits, Lampton Park, the largest park in Hounslow is a favourite, and Osterley Park, a National Trust mansion and parkland estate makes a memorable setting.

Every tradition

From milni to the four laavan

The exchange of garlands and the joy of the sangat around the couple are moments we love to photograph. The langar that follows the ceremony, shared by the whole sangat, is a moment of community we capture with warmth. We keep our distance during the laavan and the prayers, and step in only for the joyful greetings.

The day often opens early with kirtan in the gurdwara, and we are there for it. We photograph the chunni ceremony and the giving of the choora, and the emotion that comes with them. The maiyan, when turmeric is applied, is full of colour and play, and often holds the warmest moments.
