What’s your style?

Our style is most often described as “creative documentary.” we photograph your day as it unfolds naturally without interference from us. However, we also put a lot of energy and time into your “creative portraits,” which are the photos of just the two of you. We look for interesting light, angles and backgrounds, and often use unusual, experimental techniques to turn your wedding portraits into works of art.

We wish we could meet with you, but we don’t live in Pune, Is there an alternative?

The majority of our couples hire us without an in-person meeting. We are very quick, and very thorough, with emails and are able to answer most questions that way. However, we are happy to talk with you on the phone or skype. A lot of of our out-of-town clients have done this, and we love it!

How do we arrange your travel?

We will book our own airfare, hotel and transportation, you need to reimburce it , or if you can manage the things .

Will you travel for engagement sessions as well?

We are happy to come to your town or meet you at a fabulous destination of your choice. Please contact us for specific information.

Do you photograph details and family group photos?

Yes! A wedding photography collection would not be complete without good details and family photos, and we take all the photographs you would expect out of any wedding photographer. But our goal is to also go past those expectations and give you photographs that you never even imagined.

My fiancé is uncomfortable having his picture taken. How can you help him on the wedding day?

We are very calm, mellow people who tend to blend into the scene rather than bring attention to ourselves and our cameras. That, combined with our documentary style, will have you both used to us within the first half-hour of your getting-ready time. Most couples tell us it felt like we were just one of the gang, hanging out with everyone. The only time you’ll really be aware of the cameras is during the family group photo and the creative portraits, and during this time we will guide you through everything. You can just be yourselves, and we will take care of the rest.

What do you do if we have an outdoor venue and it rains on our wedding day?

Most venues will offer you a rain plan with a backup indoor location. We easily adapt to any situation. Our favorite wedding photos have a lot more to do with your personalities and your chemistry as a couple, than what kind of background you’re standing in front of. If you are happy and in love, that will show in your photos. We see rain as a fun, adventurous twist that usually brings laughter and spontaneity.

Should I give you a shot list?

When you contact us about shooting your wedding, we will send you a full gallery of a real wedding to look through. You will see that we are very thorough with our coverage, including photos of your dress, jewelry, shoes, flowers, food and reception décor. There is no need to give us a shot list. The only list we will ask for is your list of family group shots.

How many photographers will be at my wedding?

We always have at least two photographers at each wedding. The second photographer is chosen from a short list of very talented people we are used to working with. The second photographer is responsible for documenting the event in more traditional way, providing a second angle on the ceremony and covering the reception sometimes assisting the lead photographer with off-camera lighting for creative portraits. The same applies for our videographer .

When will we see our photographs?

Because we take such care in making sure all your edited photographs will look great for years to come, completion takes about 3 -4 weeks for soft copies & 1 more week for album afer your shortlist the group photos.
