The Anand Karaj
We photograph the four laavan and the kirtan with the reverence the Guru Granth Sahib deserves.
Sikh wedding photography in Burton upon Trent, capturing the Anand Karaj, the four laavan and the joy of the celebrations with calm, storytelling coverage and fine-art albums.
Serving Burton upon Trent
Burton upon Trent is a brewing town with a South Asian community, and we love photographing Sikh weddings here. Across Swadlincote, Uttoxeter and Lichfield we cover the milni, the Anand Karaj and the four laavan with a careful, respectful eye.
From the maiyan and mehndi to the Anand Karaj and the reception, we document the whole celebration with a calm, unobtrusive eye, always respectful of the gurdwara. We are London-based and travel across Staffordshire and the wider region for Sikh weddings. The Anand Karaj and its celebrations are a speciality and distance is never a problem.

What we offer
We photograph the four laavan and the kirtan with the reverence the Guru Granth Sahib deserves.
Heads covered, never turning our backs to the Guru, we know exactly how to work respectfully inside the darbar.
Hand-finished albums that hold the whole story of your celebration.
Every tradition
We are equally at home with the calm of the darbar and the energy outside it. The milni brings the families together with garlands and warmth, the baraat arrives with the dhol, and the bhangra carries the celebration late into the night.
Inside, the Anand Karaj unfolds with the laavan and the palla joining the couple, and we move quietly so the sacred moments are never disturbed. We know when to step in close and when to stand back, in Burton upon Trent and wherever you marry.

The whole celebration
A Sikh wedding rarely fits into a single afternoon, and we love that. It often begins days earlier with the maiyan and vatna, the mehndi and a lively sangeet or jaggo full of music and dance.
Then comes the wedding morning, the milni, the baraat and the Anand Karaj in the gurdwara, followed by the langar, the doli and the reception. We can cover a single key event or several days, with a second photographer for the largest celebrations in Burton upon Trent.
