Vij was an absolute gem to work with. From the first meeting to the last, his professionalism and friendly demeanour put my family and I at ease. I would highly recommend photography by Vij especially for those looking for interest free installments. Thank you so much!

We felt so comfortable with Vijay and can't express how grateful we are. His professionalism and hard work shines through every frame and picture. The quality, creativity, and the fact that the photos really told the story of the event in such a perfect way, was amazing and mesmerizing.

VIJ
BEDFORD BASED WEDDING & EVENTS PHOTOGRAPHER
DOCUMENTARY ART DIRECTION

If you value great customer service as much as beautiful photography, you’ll feel right at home here.

I photograph weddings across Bedford, Milton Keynes, St Albans, Cambridge, Luton, London and throughout Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire and Cambridgeshire. Whether you’re planning an intimate ceremony or a large celebration, my focus is always the same — to capture your day naturally, honestly and beautifully.

 

Why me?

With over 10 years of creative industry experience, I specialise in bright, clean, documentary‑style wedding photography that tells the real story of your day. No forced poses, no awkward moments — just genuine emotion, meaningful details and images that feel true to you.

Couples often tell me they appreciate how easy I am to work with. I’m friendly, calm and down‑to‑earth, and I make communication a priority from the moment you enquire. I keep you updated at every stage, check in regularly, and make sure you always feel informed and supported throughout the entire process.

The result is a relaxed experience and a gallery full of natural, meaningful images that feel like your day — not a photoshoot.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you photograph weddings outside Bedford?

​​Yes. While I am based in Bedford, I photograph weddings across Bedfordshire as well as the rest of the UK. 

Do you offer wedding videography as well as photography?

Yes. I now offer wedding videography alongside photography, allowing couples to have a consistent visual style across both. This is ideal for couples who want their story captured seamlessly without coordinating multiple suppliers.

​​

How far in advance should we book you for our wedding?

Most couples book 9–18 months in advance, particularly for peak summer dates. However, I occasionally have availability for shorter-notice weddings, so it’s always worth getting in touch. Pop me a whatsapp or a text here.

Do you offer engagement shoots?
Yes. Engagement sessions are a great way to get comfortable in front of the camera and capture relaxed, natural photos before the wedding. Read my blogs about how to get the best out of your photography.

How many photos will we receive?
For a full‑day wedding, couples typically receive 400–700 fully edited images, delivered in a private online gallery.

 

How long does it take to receive our photos?
Most galleries are delivered within 4–8 weeks, depending on the season. I always keep you updated throughout the process.
