The short answer

Your wedding photographer in Edgware, at a glance

Kaushik Bathia has photographed weddings across Greater London for over twenty five years, and couples in Edgware choose him for calm, natural coverage backed by more than a thousand weddings and five European Gold awards. During the meal we usually put the cameras down, because photographs of people chewing serve nobody, and we use that hour to shoot the room, the cake and the evening setup. From intimate register office ceremonies to grand country house weddings, and from village churches to garden and marquee celebrations, we photograph every kind of wedding in and around Edgware. Having built the business on word of mouth since 2001, we take reliability seriously; being on time, dressed appropriately and ready is simply how we work. Engagement shoots, a second photographer for busier days and beautiful fine art albums are all part of what we offer, and we travel throughout Greater London and the rest of the UK for your wedding.

Hindu and Jewish celebrations both feature strongly in this Barnet suburb, and each brings its own demands, whether that is managing light indoors around an early ceremony or moving a very large family group quickly afterwards. Canons Park, a Grade II registered historic park nearby, provides the space for that, and it is the obvious escape from the rooms at Zareen Banqueting, Sangam Banqueting or The Hive London, none of which offer much outdoors. The neo-Georgian station building of 1924, by Stanley Heaps, is a surprisingly good backdrop with its clean lines, if the couple are willing to walk. Edgware station is the northern terminus of the Edgware branch of the Northern line, so London guests arrive by Underground, while those from Canons Park, Queensbury and Hale will mostly drive.

Serving Edgware

Bringing 25 years of wedding photography to Edgware

Paperwork picks the room in Edgware. Civil ceremonies are confined to buildings licensed for them, and that list is never the list of buildings you fell for. Once the licensed room is settled, so are its windows, its width, its ceiling, and every photographic decision taken afterwards sits downstream of an administrative one made months earlier by somebody you will never meet. Budget your attention accordingly.

So we want sight of that room, or failing that photographs of it, long ahead of the date. Small licensed rooms in this corner of Barnet are frequently the wrong shape: long, narrow, seating consuming the space a camera needs behind the couple. Learning that early changes which lens we carry and the two spots where we plant ourselves for the vows. Canons Park carries a Grade II registration if you want somewhere green afterwards.

Every kind of wedding

Intimate elopements through to 300 guests

Twenty guests and three hundred guests are not one job scaled up. With twenty, everybody appears in every frame and a bad expression has nowhere to hide, so coverage tips towards portraiture. At three hundred the difficulty turns arithmetical: a receiving line of that length consumes more clock than the drinks it interrupts, and your group list has to be cut before it is written rather than after. Elopements invert the problem again, since two witnesses and a registrar leave nowhere to stand except close.

Legally the binding portion is brief, occasionally under ten minutes, and it grants no second take, so we take our positions before anybody sits. Two further fixed points follow, the speeches and that first dance, and each rewards standing where the reaction is rather than where the speaker is. Everything strung between those anchors is ours to find, and it generally supplies the frames that get printed large.

Why choose us

Photography built on real experience

Long service counts for very little on its own. What it buys is somebody who has already met the flat grey afternoon, the delayed registrar and the best man running long, and who will not be meeting any of those three fresh on your particular date.

Good to know

Wedding photography in Edgware, frequently asked questions

Do your awards mean anything for our wedding?+

Honestly, not much. An award says a panel liked one picture. What counts on your date is whether the person turns up early, gets on with your family, and knows what to do when the light fails. Ask about that.

How do you handle the group and family photos?+

Quickly, off a list you wrote. Eight or ten groupings is plenty; beyond that people drift back towards the bar. We name a wrangler on each side and clear the whole lot in one stretch rather than chasing stragglers.

What should we look for when choosing a wedding photographer in Edgware?+

Ask to be shown an entire wedding, not a highlights reel. Twenty strong frames sit within anybody's reach. Request one complete Edgware day, beginning to end, then judge whether the dull hours were treated as attentively as the vows.

Is travel charged as an extra?+

Not within Edgware or the area immediately round it. Anything beyond that is written down and agreed before you book, so nothing unexpected surfaces on a final invoice months afterwards.

What if we need to change our wedding date?+

Tell us at the earliest point you can. Where the replacement date is still open, your booking simply moves across. Where it is already taken, we would sooner point you towards somebody we trust than leave you searching from scratch.
