An investment in how
you’ll remember it
Long after the flowers are composted and the lehenga is archived, the photographs and the films are what remain. Here is how that investment works — built around your celebration, not a price list.
No two of our weddings have ever cost the same, because no two have ever been the same — a two-hundred-guest single day and a six-hundred-guest, four-day weekend need genuinely different teams. So instead of forcing your celebration into a box, we listen first and then build a proposal around it.
For a sense of scale: single-celebration collections begin in the mid four figures, and most couples who celebrate across a full wedding weekend make a five-figure investment with us. Where yours lands depends on the shape of your days — and you'll see it in writing, in full, before you're asked to decide anything.
What shapes your investment
Six things decide it. When we talk, these are the questions we'll ask — so you can already see which way each one moves the number.
Days & events
The single biggest factor. A mehndi, a haldi, a sangeet, the ceremony, the reception — each day is a full production with its own light, its own energy and its own team on the ground.
The team
A second photographer so both families' mornings are covered. A cinematography team working alongside. Large celebrations earn larger teams — that's where the coverage comes from.
Films
A feature film and a highlight film are crafted by editors over weeks, not days. Couples who include film consider it the best decision they made; it is also a meaningful part of the investment.
Guest scale
Five hundred guests means more moments happening at once — more coverage, more angles, and a team that can be in three places while the baraat is in a fourth.
Albums & artefacts
Heirloom albums, parent albums, fine-art prints — the physical things your grandchildren will hold. Added at booking or after the wedding, whenever you're ready.
Travel
Local celebrations near New Jersey carry no travel cost at all. Destination weekends are quoted openly — flights, stay, and a day either side, written into the proposal.
Most celebrations look like one of these
Not packages — starting points. Your proposal begins from the shape that fits and is tailored from there.
One event, told completely
A sangeet, a reception, an engagement — one celebration covered from the first diya to the last dance. Lead photographer with a second shooter, full coverage of the evening, and a complete edited gallery.
The gentlest way to work with us — and where the investment begins.
Ceremony and reception, photography and film
The full wedding day — both mornings' preparations, the ceremony with every ritual understood and anticipated, and the reception into the night. A photography team and a cinematography team working side by side, so you receive the day twice: in photographs, and as a film.
The shape most of our couples choose, and the heart of what we do.
Every event, one story
Mehndi, haldi, sangeet, ceremony, reception — the whole weekend as one continuous story, with a consistent team who know your families by the final day. Feature film, highlight film, and coverage that doesn't clock off while the celebration is still going.
For celebrations that deserve a book, not a chapter.

From your date
to your proposal
- 1

A relaxed call with Surya
Twenty minutes, no sales pitch. Mostly questions about your celebration — the days, the families, the moments that matter most. - 3
Your tailored proposal
Everything in writing: the coverage, the team, the films, the deliverables — and the exact investment, to the dollar. Often with options side by side, reserved for you while you decide. - 4
Reserve your date
Accept, sign and pay the reservation online in one sitting. Your date comes off the calendar entirely — and stays off.
The proposal is where the numbers live — complete, itemised and honest, with nothing appearing later that wasn't written down.
Spread across the journey,
never a surprise
Nobody pays for their wedding photography in one breath. The investment is split across the engagement, on a schedule set out in your proposal.
- 1
A reservation payment at booking
Holds your date exclusively — we won't take another enquiry for it. Fully refundable for seven days. - 2
The middle, on a schedule that suits you
Instalments across the engagement — your proposal sets them out, and your portal keeps track. - 3
The balance, 30 days before
Settled before the weekend, so nobody is thinking about money on the day itself.
Card, Apple Pay, Google Pay and bank transfer all accepted. Custom schedules are never a problem — just ask.
The honest answers
Because it would either overcharge the intimate wedding or undercharge the grand one. A price list flattens every celebration into an average; a proposal is built from yours. You'll see every number in writing before you're asked to decide anything — we simply want the first conversation to be about your wedding, not a table.
In your proposal, straight after the consultation — itemised to the dollar, often with two or three options side by side, and reserved for a set window so you can decide without pressure. Nothing is ever added later that wasn't written there.
That is genuinely all we do. The three shapes above are starting points; roughly a third of our couples end up with something tailored beyond them — three events across two cities, one very large single day, a destination sangeet. Tell us the shape of your celebration and the proposal is built to it.
Your reservation transfers to any other available date within eighteen months, once, at no charge. We've been through enough postponements to know that dates move for reasons nobody plans for.
Certainly — single-celebration coverage is photography-led, and film can be left out of any proposal. It's just worth knowing that couples who skip film are the ones most likely to write a year later asking whether we happened to record the speeches.
Within 90 miles of New Jersey, yes, always. Continental US travel is written into weekend proposals; international destinations are quoted per event and cover flights, accommodation and a day either side — openly, in the proposal, never as a surprise.
