The Owner is very friendly and professional. I have been using Mr Bathia for over 15 years and have seen him through multiple family weddings.
We had a family photo session with grandparents, parents sons and our dog too. Mr Bathia is good humoured, he got the best out of all of us and took some great photos.
Had such an amazing experience with Kaushik Bathia Photography 📸 The whole shoot felt super fun and comfortable, and the pictures turned out better than I could have imagined! Highly recommend if you want natural vibes and stunning shots.
What we photograph in Whetstone
Pick your session in Whetstone
Whetstone is a suburban district in the London Borough of Barnet strung along the old Great North Road in the N20 postcode. Everything, from garden shoots to venue weddings, takes place across Totteridge, Friern Barnet and North Finchley. At a christening or naming day in Whetstone we would keep a respectful distance during the ceremony itself, then gather the family for portraits once it is over.
An engagement, a fortieth, a graduation or a golden anniversary deserves proper portraits, and we would plan them wherever suits you, at home in Whetstone. Proposals, engagements, weddings, christenings and birthdays all get the same careful preparation from us, whatever the size of the occasion.
Whether it is a pet portrait on the grass in a local park or a product set for a High Road shop, each shoot is planned so it runs to time.

Whetstone is a suburban district in the London Borough of Barnet strung along the old Great North Road in the N20 postcode, and Mill Hill and Finchley are close neighbours we serve too.

Whetstone runs along the historic Great North Road in the N20 postcode and keeps a village-like High Road of independent shops, pubs and restaurants. Its small parks, such as Swan Lane Open Space, give it a green, suburban feel. Totteridge & Whetstone Underground station is on the High Barnet branch of the Northern line.

Whetstone along the old Great North Road
Whetstone in a few sourced notes, from the old stone outside The Griffin to the parks off the High Road, each with its link. Travel from Northwood is set out in your written quote before you book.
- Whetstone High Road is the A1000, formerly the Great North Road, and parts of it still carry that name. 1
- Totteridge & Whetstone station, opened in 1872, is on the High Barnet branch of the Northern line in fare zone 4, on Totteridge Lane at the eastern edge of Whetstone. 2
- Haven Bistro and Bar. Barnet Council lists Haven Bistro and Bar at 1363-1365 High Road, Whetstone N20 9LN, as a licensed ceremony venue for up to 300 guests. 3
- The Whetstone. The stone outside The Griffin pub, known as the Whetstone, is probably a mounting block linked to an 18th-century toll gate; legend says soldiers sharpened weapons on it before the Battle of Barnet in 1471. 4
- Totteridge & Whetstone car park. TfL lists a car park among the facilities at Totteridge & Whetstone, a Northern line station in zone 4. 5

Good to know
Photography in Whetstone, frequently asked questions
Yes. If you would rather be outdoors, we can meet you at home, at your venue or somewhere green such as Totteridge Fields, a nature reserve of more than thirty hedged fields along the Dollis Brook, reached from Hendon Wood Lane. Outdoors in Whetstone we would head for Swan Lane Open Space, the smallest of Barnet's sixteen premier parks.
Yes, and many clients do. Where it helps, two sittings can share a date, such as a newborn session followed by a portrait of the wider family, so the whole set keeps one look.
Yes. Each person sits for only a few minutes, and we fix one framing and one background so the whole team ends up with a matching set. Send the head count and your office address in N20, and we will plan the running order around your working day.
Planning ahead saves time on the day and gives your pictures a sense of where they were taken. We can suggest backdrops such as the hedged fields of Totteridge Fields or the water feature at Swan Lane Open Space, time the shoot for good light and allow for traffic on the High Road. After more than 25 years we plan every shoot in advance, from where to park to where the light will fall at your chosen hour.
No, we send a carefully chosen, edited selection instead of every frame we take. Blinks, duplicates and moments where someone glanced away are taken out, and the best pictures are then finished by hand.
Pick clothes everyone is comfortable in, in colours that work together rather than identical outfits. Plain, soft colours sit well against the greenery of a park such as Swan Lane Open Space on Woodside Lane, whereas big logos and loud patterns draw the eye away from faces. Dress for the season if we are outside, with an extra layer for a breezy walk across open ground. Send us photos of a few options before the day and we will help you choose.
You also have one person to plan with and to come back to for reprints, albums or the next session. Behind that sits a business established in 2001, fellowships of the BIPP and the MPA and five European Kodak Gold Awards.
