Leena and Hamir’s Asian wedding journey with me started around 6 months before the wedding with an engagement shoot in the heart of London. Fast forward one Engagement shoot, three planning sessions later we are at The Hilton Syon Park.

An early start, and lots of moments to capture, the morning atmosphere was relaxed. Full of joy and anticipation of the day ahead, just as Leena & Hamir had discussed.  The Hindu ceremony was lively and full of charm. The Priest while reading in Sanskrit also translated the ceremony in English, so everyone could understand.

The Hilton Syon Park, is nestled in the grounds of Syon House just slight west of Chiswick.  Syon House lends it self well as a eye catching backdrop for for some emotive portraits. Both on site and off site, and if you time it properly you may be able to get on the sandy beach. The evening reception was electric and contrasted the traditional ceremony of the morning, with a Disney style theme, and the Engagement shoot was shown as a slide show just before they made their entrance into the reception.

Asian Weddings are boring…so this couple changed the script

For some, an Asian Weddings is a slow-paced affair, everything at a gentle pace. While most of the couples, that book me, plan a wedding not as sedate. But we’re not talking over the top elements, fancy chair covers,

For some, an Asian Weddings is a slow-paced affair, everything at a gentle pace. While most of the couples, that book me, plan a wedding not as sedate. But we’re not talking over the top elements, fancy chair covers, or fast cars, they rely on their guests, families and friends to add the atmosphere and vibe of the wedding day.

From the energetic dancing and dhol to mark the arrival of the barrat, to the equally abundant voices at the gate, barring the groom from entering the venue, unless they hand over some solid cash. The reverence of the khutba by the Imam, and the elegant bridal entrance. All these moments, that define the day, and create the story of Asian Weddings. 

 The story then becomes abundant of pictures, and I look for the unconventional moments that prompt the day, that you may miss, but will love to relive once you see them.   

Heres a little story I loved to photograph and retell in the heart of the Cheshire countryside.

Woburn Abbey Asian Wedding Photographer.  In a snow blizzard,  the team and I were on the way to the Woburn Asian Wedding fair.  For those who braved the snow they got a sneak peak new Luxury Wedding Books. As well meeting some great suppliers from across the South East, to help plan their weddings.

Woburn Sculpture Gallery, is main attraction for Asian weddings. The long room with high windows allows in plenty of natural light which is a photographers dream.  The room is dotted with pristine columns, and in between plenty of marble statues.

The Sculpture gallery has a cool secret, the orangery.  A tropical oasis in the heart of Bedfordshire, which is an amazing spot for some memorable photos. After the awesome fashion show featuring Kian-E Haute Couture  ,  and as the Woburn Abbey Asian Wedding Photographer, I was asked to capture some stunning photographs of all the models an array of Asian wedding saris and lenghas.

The range of suppliers and vendors was nothing short of brilliant. And the  Venue hosts and Wedding planners are the most helpful you can find.
