Sikh Wedding Photographer in Lambeth

Serving Lambeth

Beautiful Sikh wedding photography in Lambeth

Lambeth is a south London borough on the Thames. From the gurdwara to the reception, we keep the day flowing across venues throughout Southwark, Wandsworth. From the darbar sahib to the reception floor, we photograph the whole day with a calm, familiar presence.

We move quietly around the darbar sahib, capturing the four laavan as they happen rather than staging them. Our style is unobtrusive, so the darbar sahib stays a place of worship and never becomes a photoshoot. We capture the details too, the choora, the kaleere, the sehra and the palki, that make your Anand Karaj yours.

Much of our work takes us across Greater London; Lambeth, a south London borough on the Thames, and the towns around it, including Southwark, Wandsworth, are very familiar to us. We also cover nearby Lewisham and Merton. Local Sikh wedding venues we know near Lambeth include Lambeth Assembly Hall, Brunswick House and Beaconsfield Gallery Vauxhall.

A diverse south London borough stretching from Waterloo to Streatham, with Brixton at its heart and a strong Caribbean heritage. Served by Waterloo and Vauxhall stations and the Victoria and Northern lines. We often take couples to Brockwell Park near Herne Hill and Brixton for a few quiet portraits, and Lambeth Palace, the London residence of the Archbishop of Canterbury is a lovely backdrop nearby.

Every tradition

From maiyan to doli

We work discreetly at the back and the sides of the darbar sahib, so the Anand Karaj is never disturbed. As the ragis sing each laav, the couple walk slowly around the Guru Granth Sahib, and we photograph it quietly from the side. At the heart of a Sikh wedding is the Anand Karaj, the blissful union performed before the Guru Granth Sahib.

The pre-wedding events are often where the most natural photographs come from, and we give them full attention. The mehndi is intimate and detailed, and we photograph both the henna and the laughter around it. We photograph the sehra bandi, when the groom's turban and sehra are tied, with all its ceremony.
