The Reception
The speeches, the first dance, the bhangra and the giddha, captured to the very last guest.

Serving Willesden
Willesden is a multicultural north-west London area near major temples. Couples come to us from across London and the surrounding area, and Neasden, Harlesden and Cricklewood are firmly on our patch. We know the local gurdwaras and their early-morning timings well, and plan the day around them.
We capture the emotion honestly, from the laughter of the jaggo night to the tears of the doli. We are at ease with large, multi-day Sikh celebrations and intimate gurdwara ceremonies alike. Inside the gurdwara we work with great discretion, heads covered and shoes removed, never intruding on the kirtan.
Sikh families across Neasden, Harlesden and Cricklewood trust us with their weddings, and Willesden, a multicultural north-west London area near major temples, is a place we return to often. We also cover nearby Sutton and Kingston upon Thames. In and around Willesden, we have photographed at venues such as Green Ariana Banqueting Suite and Gill Banquet Hall.
Willesden is a multicultural north-west London area in the borough of Brent, close to major places of worship including the large Neasden temple. Willesden Green Underground station is on the Jubilee line, and Willesden Junction is served by London Overground. We often take couples to Roundwood Park, a well kept Victorian park, with Gladstone Park also nearby for a few quiet portraits, and The Grade II listed Willesden Green station building with its original green mosaic tiling is a lovely backdrop nearby.

What we offer
The speeches, the first dance, the bhangra and the giddha, captured to the very last guest.
Fine prints and framed art of the four laavan and the doli to bring home.
The music, the dancing and the candlelit pots of the jaggo, captured with all their energy.
Every tradition
The hukamnama, the reading taken after the laavan, closes the ceremony, and we capture it with respect. We keep our distance during the laavan and the prayers, and step in only for the joyful greetings. The langar that follows the ceremony, shared by the whole sangat, is a moment of community we capture with warmth.
From the first event to the last, we tell the full story of the celebration. We photograph the sehra bandi, when the groom's turban and sehra are tied, with all its ceremony. The kaleere tied to the bride's choora carry their own meaning, and we photograph the ritual with care.

The whole celebration
The turmeric of the maiyan and the henna of the mehndi are rich with colour, and we make the most of it. Some families hold a Sri Akhand Path in the days before the wedding, and we cover it with quiet reverence.
We always recommend a little time for couple portraits, often after the ceremony, away from the bustle. The vegetarian langar follows the ceremony, and we photograph the whole sangat sharing the meal.
Why choose us
Our experience of Punjabi and Sikh weddings, inside the gurdwara and out, runs deep. We bring the steadiness that only comes from photographing the Anand Karaj for twenty-five years.
We cover the whole of the UK for Anand Karaj ceremonies, so distance never stands between us and your gurdwara. Reaching your gurdwara is simply part of how we work, and distance is never a barrier to covering the milni.

Where we travel
We are London-based but rarely in London; much of our work takes us to the gurdwaras and jaggo nights of London and the surrounding area. We photograph across Greater London regularly, and travelling to a gurdwara in Willesden is second nature to us.
