Blown away by India’s talent and eye for detail. She truly is a rare find
Coming from two people that don’t like to have their photo taken, my husband and I thought finding a photographer would be a challenge but as soon as we met India, we knew she was the one. India is the epitome of cool, calm and collected - yet carries such passion and enthusiasm for photography, as soon as I mentioned wanting a mixture of film and digital - her eyes lit up. India has been shooting on film for the last 15 years and knows how to make the most of a 36 exposure roll! India has the ability to blend in, I barely knew she was there most of the day but the photos she captured blew us away. Absolutely over the moon. India you are a rockstar!

Artistic, intuitive and extremely kind wedding photographer!
From first contact, India was the most transparent, concise and communicative wedding photographer out of the 10 photographers I contacted. She was keen to understand our aesthetics, vibe, story as a couple and ceremony logistics to inform her artistry on the day. On request, India shot entirely on film! What we received were incredibly iconic, beautiful, timeless photos - both posed and candid. India is truly gifted at capturing intimate moments without you knowing she's nearby! Any service to do with weddings is notorious for price gouging...but not India! Her prices are beyond fair and she's incredibly transparent about pricing. On top of her professional talents, interpersonally India is a joy to communicate with. We, and our guests, felt so comfortable around her. And she really made us laugh! We feel incredibly lucky to have found and employed her. Highest recommendation!

We could not have had a better experience with India, she took so many incredible photos of our wedding and from start to finish was nothing but accommodating, caring and professional.
We cannot recommend her highly enough and would really encourage you to pick her to photograph your special day!

Absolutely amazing to work with 🙏🏿
I got in touch with India to help me with delivering the best proposal I could to my now Fiancée.
India was an absolute joy to work with, offering ideas and feedback on the best way to plan the perfect proposal, being responsive and flexible when with 2 weeks notice I needed to move the date back a month, and delivering the most amazing combination of candid and set up photos highlighting the joy both of us felt on the day. 😊
I would fully recommend her for anyone looking for high quality engagement and wedding photos, and definitely plan on using her again when the situation arises.

Amazing photographer
India is an amazing professional and photographer. She came to the wedding venue before time to get familiar with the venue and was extremely friendly and professional. She was able to capture the most amazing spontaneous moments and took some amazing looking pictures. India I am so thankful that I hired you to share one of the most important days of my life... my wedding day. Thank you for delivering an amazing service. I will definitely be using you again and would recommend you to anyone I know 😉 😊
