Indian weddings are vibrant, bustling, colourful and filled with love and capturing all those elements and more is a task only the best wedding photographer can achieve. If you are looking for a wedding photographer for your Indian wedding then read on to find out everything you need to include in your photos!
Understanding the Essence of an Indian Wedding
The most important part of Indian wedding photography is finding a photographer that understands the very essence of your wedding needs. An Indian wedding is not the same as a traditional British wedding and so it is important that your photographer has experience with Indian weddings in order to provide you with the service you need and deserve.
Key Elements That Must be Included
When asking photographers for prices and information for your wedding, take the time to check that the following elements are part of the package they offer. If not, ask them to confirm the cost of including each element so that you get a broad range of photos from the entire celebration rather than just one day’s photos:
- Important Wedding Rituals – Indian weddings have a wide range of rituals and ceremonies that you will want to have included in your photos. These range from Haldi and Mehndi to Sangeet and the actual wedding ceremony itself.
- Blessings and Specific Customs – for many Indian couples, the part of the wedding that is officiated is often the most moving part. Having traditional and sacred readings shared between the couple and their family cements the love and future prosperity for the couple, helping them to get the very best start to married life.
- Outfit Choices – the outfits at an Indian wedding are always a stunning sight and should be properly documented in your wedding photography. It’s important to remember that it’s not just the bride and groom that will be dressed in amazing outfits, but also the wider family too, giving you lots of great shots to get done.
- Decorations – choosing the decorations for your Indian wedding is often a highlight of the planning stages and should be included in your wedding photos. Your photographer will be able to take photos before the celebrations start as well as during the festivities so that you have a record of how amazing your venues looked.
- Party Celebrations – there is no doubt that the celebrations that are involved in an Indian wedding are amazing and it is important to make sure that your photographer is present and able to get some candid and action shots of everyone dancing and having a great time together. While you’ll never be able to recreate the atmosphere of your wedding day, carefully composed wedding photos will help to transport you right back to the festivities.
