Desi weddings are not just events — they’re experiences. They’re color, culture, music, emotion, tradition, and celebration woven together over multiple unforgettable days. And we absolutely Rock and Love photographing and filming them.
From intimate backyard ceremonies to grand ballroom receptions, we are always honored to document any type of Desi wedding — Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi, Sri Lankan, Hindu, Sikh, Muslim, fusion, modern, traditional, or beautifully blended.

We Understand the Depth of Desi Weddings
Desi weddings aren’t just about one ceremony. They’re layered with meaning and tradition:
The Mehndi night filled with laughter and intricate henna
The vibrant Haldi ceremony
The energetic Sangeet with choreographed dances
The Baraat entrance that turns into a full-on street party
The emotional Nikah
The sacred Anand Karaj
The timeless Hindu wedding rituals around the mandap
Each moment carries history. Each ritual deserves to be documented with intention.
We don’t just show up and “cover” it. We learn your timeline. We understand what matters most to your families. We anticipate the big emotional beats — and the in-between moments that make everything feel real.

Photography That Honors Culture and Emotion
Desi weddings are visually stunning — the fabrics, jewelry, florals, décor, lighting. We approach photography with a balance of:
Documentary storytelling
Artistic portraits
Editorial-style couple shots
Candid family interactions
High-energy dance floor captures
We know how to handle fast-moving ceremonies, large guest counts, and multiple outfit changes. We understand the importance of family formals — especially with extended relatives flying in from around the world.
And yes, we are ready for the Baraat chaos. Always.

Cinematic Videography That Captures the Energy
Desi weddings are made for film.
The music.The entrances.The speeches.The rituals.
Our videography captures both the grandeur and the intimacy. We create cinematic wedding films that allow you to relive:
The roar of the Baraat
The quiet prayers during ceremony
The laughter during speeches
The wild dance floor energy at the reception
We focus on storytelling — not just pretty visuals, but meaning.
