Tamil Wedding Photographer in Newham

Serving Newham

Iyer and Iyengar weddings in Newham

Newham is a fast-changing east London borough. We regularly photograph Tamil weddings throughout Tower Hamlets, Barking and Dagenham and the surrounding part of Greater London. From the muhurtham to the reception, we keep the day flowing across venues throughout Greater London.

We balance documentary coverage with a few quiet portraits, so your album holds both the nadaswaram's energy and elegance. Our approach is relaxed and documentary, so you can be present at your own muhurtham rather than posing for it. We capture the details too, the Kanjeevaram silk, the temple jewellery and the jasmine, that make your day yours.

Whether your celebration is in Newham itself or elsewhere in Greater London, we plan travel and timings with care. Newham is a fast-changing east London borough. We also photograph in nearby North Harrow and Northwood. Newham and the towns around it offer venues such as East Ham Town Hall, The Grove Banqueting and Crown Banqueting Suite, all familiar to us.

A fast-changing east London borough, one of the capital's most ethnically diverse, and host of the 2012 Olympic Games. Served by Stratford station on the Elizabeth line, Jubilee line and DLR, with the A13 crossing the borough. For pre-wedding and couple portraits, we love spots such as West Ham Park, managed by the City of London, with The London Stadium in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park close by for a striking backdrop.

Every tradition

Iyer, Iyengar and Sri Lankan customs

The saptapadi, the seven steps the couple take together, completes the marriage, and we photograph it with reverence. We photograph the kanyadaanam, the giving away of the bride, at the mandapam with quiet care. The thali, tied to the sound of the nadaswaram, is the sacred heart of the ceremony, and we capture it close.

We capture the family moments around the bride and groom, not just the rituals. The oonjal swing, the singing and the rice balls offered to the couple are full of family warmth. The nalangu, the playful post-wedding games between the couple and their families, is full of warmth and fun.
