Serving Gillingham

Sikh wedding photography in Gillingham

As a Sikh wedding photographer working in Gillingham, Gillingham is a Medway town with a diverse community, and we travel throughout Chatham, Rainham and Rochester for the Anand Karaj and the celebrations around it, photographing the ritual, the energy and the quiet family moments alike.

We move quietly through the day, from the morning kirtan to the last bhangra, so the story of your Sikh wedding is told in full. We are London-based and travel across Kent and the wider region for Sikh weddings. The Anand Karaj and its celebrations are a speciality and distance is never a problem.

Every tradition

Every moment, photographed with reverence

A Sikh wedding centres on the Anand Karaj, the blissful union performed before the Guru Granth Sahib, and we photograph it with the reverence it deserves. We know the kirtan, the ardas and the four laavan, the hymns the couple circle the Guru to.

We understand gurdwara etiquette deeply, covered heads, no shoes, never a back turned to the Guru, so we capture the ceremony respectfully and unobtrusively. Whatever your family keeps, we have photographed it many times in and around Gillingham.

The whole celebration

Your celebration in Gillingham, day by day

We plan our coverage around the shape of your celebration. Many Sikh weddings begin with the maiyan, the mehndi and the sangeet, move into the milni and the Anand Karaj, and build to the reception over two or three days.

Whatever your schedule, we arrive early, stay late and keep pace with the day so every event, sacred or joyful, is photographed properly. For multi-venue days in Gillingham a second photographer covers two places at once.

Good to know

Sikh weddings in Gillingham, FAQs

Yes. We travel to Gillingham and across Kent for the Anand Karaj and its celebrations. Sikh weddings are a speciality and distance is never a problem.

Completely. We cover our heads, remove our shoes, never turn our backs to the Guru Granth Sahib and move quietly during the laavan, so the Anand Karaj is photographed with full respect.

Absolutely. We regularly cover the maiyan, mehndi, sangeet, the Anand Karaj and the reception across several days in Gillingham, with additional photographers for the largest celebrations.

You will receive a small preview soon after the wedding, with your full edited gallery and album to follow. A Sikh wedding produces thousands of frames, so careful editing takes a little time and is well worth the wait.

It depends on the size of your celebration. Many weddings are covered beautifully by one photographer, but for large multi-event days in Gillingham we bring a second so two places at once are always covered.
