The short answer

Your wedding photographer in Marlow, at a glance

Kaushik Bathia has photographed weddings across Buckinghamshire for over twenty five years, and couples in Marlow choose him for calm, natural coverage backed by more than a thousand weddings and five European Gold awards. Light guides much of what we do; we chase the soft hour, work with candlelight and use what a venue gives us to shape frames that feel timeless. We cover every kind of wedding in Marlow, from church, civil and register office ceremonies to country houses, barns, marquees, hotels and garden venues, as well as multicultural and fusion celebrations. Having covered a thousand celebrations, we know where to stand for the confetti, the first dance and the speeches, so the key moments are never missed. Engagement shoots, a second photographer for busier days and beautiful fine art albums are all part of what we offer, and we travel throughout Buckinghamshire and the rest of the UK for your wedding.

Serving Marlow

Where your Marlow wedding story begins

Marlow is a riverside town on the Thames with elegant venues. Whether you choose a register office, a barn, a country house or a hotel, we photograph across Buckinghamshire and know the area around Maidenhead, High Wycombe and Bourne End closely. Some couples marry quietly with a handful of witnesses and others before a full congregation, and we adapt our approach so the coverage suits the scale of your ceremony.

We blend honest reportage with a short set of relaxed, guided portraits, so you keep both the candid frames and a handful of timeless ones you will treasure. You lead the day and we follow it, photographing the details you have planned and the surprises you have not, all without interrupting the flow. Our style is documentary at heart; we watch for the glances, the laughter and the quiet pauses, then let those moments become the story of your day.

We travel to Marlow regularly and always look forward to it. Marlow is a riverside town on the Thames with elegant venues, and we photograph weddings here and throughout the nearby area, Milton Keynes and Buckingham included. In and around Marlow, we have photographed at venues such as The Compleat Angler, Crowne Plaza Marlow and Danesfield House.

Marlow is a riverside market town on the River Thames, well known for its regatta and its Georgian and Victorian streets. Marlow railway station is the terminus of the branch line, nicknamed the Marlow Donkey, running via Bourne End to Maidenhead. For pre-wedding and couple portraits, we love spots such as Higginson Park, the riverside park beside the Thames in the centre of Marlow, with Marlow suspension bridge, designed by William Tierney Clark and completed in 1832, alongside All Saints Church close by for a striking backdrop.

What we offer

What is included in your Marlow wedding coverage

01

The First Dance

We frame the first dance to hold both of you and the faces around you, keeping the whole feeling of it.

02

Full Day Coverage

We stay from the morning preparations through to the evening, so the whole story is there in one set.

03

Relaxed Group Photos

We keep family and group shots efficient and good humoured, so you are back with your guests within minutes.

Every kind of wedding

Room for every ritual, every reading, every custom

Whether the setting is a grand nave or a simple garden marquee, we work with the available light and the sightlines to record the ceremony honestly. The moment you are declared married deserves to be seen clearly, so we plan our angles in advance and hold steady when it arrives. Whether you marry in a country house, a chapel or a city hall, we photograph the ceremony with restraint, letting the day speak for itself.

The drinks reception is where the day loosens and the real laughter starts, so we move through the crowd and photograph the reunions and quiet chats as they happen. The evening brings a different mood, and we adjust our lighting so the dancing, the singing and the late laughter all come through with warmth and life. We photograph the speeches, the toasts and the quiet reactions around the room, then stay through the first dance and into the evening celebrations.

The whole celebration

Every moment of the day captured

A pre-wedding event or welcome gathering the evening before is often relaxed and full of feeling, and we are glad to be there to record it. Getting ready is where a lot of the honest pictures live, so we are there early for the quiet nerves, the last checks and the first look in the mirror.

We keep an eye on the running order without letting it run us, which leaves room for the unplanned things that make the best pictures. The best record of a wedding carries you through it hour by hour, and that is what we aim for, from the early stillness to the last song of the night.

Why choose us

The reason Marlow couples keep booking

We have photographed weddings since 2001, and in that time we have learned to read a running order quickly and to keep things moving gently when the schedule slips. Experience teaches you to expect the unexpected; after so many weddings we have a quiet plan for rain, delays and last minute changes, and it rarely shows.

We map out the driving and parking in advance for every wedding, so reaching venues around Maidenhead, High Wycombe and Bourne End and across Buckinghamshire is smooth on the day. We come to you, wherever the day unfolds, and we are comfortable covering venues throughout Buckinghamshire and the surrounding counties.

Good to know

Wedding photography in Marlow, frequently asked questions

Our approach is mainly documentary, watching the day unfold and catching real moments as they happen. We balance that with a short set of relaxed portraits of the two of you and efficient family groups. The aim is a natural, honest record of your day that still includes the timeless portraits you will want to frame.

Yes, and we encourage it. We are happy to meet in person or over a video call to talk through your plans, your venues and the moments you most want captured. Meeting beforehand means you are working with familiar faces on the day itself, which helps everyone feel relaxed when the cameras come out.

Your date is held once we have a signed agreement and a booking deposit, with the balance due before the wedding. The deposit secures your date against other enquiries and comes off your total. We keep the paperwork simple and clear, and we are always happy to explain any part of it before you commit.

We design the first draft for you, choosing and sequencing images so the album flows as a story rather than a random set of photos. You then review the proof and request changes until it feels right. Nothing is printed until you have approved the final design, so you stay in control of the outcome.

In more than twenty years we have never missed a wedding, but we take the risk seriously. We work within a trusted network of experienced professional photographers, so in a genuine emergency we can arrange skilled cover who shoots to our standard, and we still handle the editing of your images ourselves afterwards.

We offer engagement shoots and many couples find them a lovely warm-up before the wedding. It is a relaxed hour or two that lets us get to know one another, so you feel at ease in front of the camera on the day. The images are yours to use for save-the-dates or simply to enjoy.

Most of the day is documentary, so we record things as they happen without staging them. The exception is a short set of group shots and a relaxed portrait session, where a little gentle direction helps. Even then we keep it natural, so the portraits still look like you rather than a stiff studio pose.
