About this collection
A pre-wedding shoot is about more than just getting pretty pictures; it’s about getting comfortable in front of the lens before the wedding chaos begins. During our 8-hour sessions, we focus on helping you relax so those candid glances and spontaneous laughs come naturally. We handle the logistics—like timing the best light and scouting locations—while you just focus on each other.
Your Shoot, Your Way
We believe a pre-wedding shoot should be an adventure, not a chore. Whether you want the historic, architectural backdrop of Delhi’s tombs or a quiet, dreamy vibe in the hills, we travel where your story takes us. Our typical 8-hour session allows for up to 3 outfit changes, giving us the time to shift from a formal, editorial look to something more casual and fun as the sun goes down.
The Process
- Consultation: We start with a chat to decide on a theme that fits your vibe. Whether you love the urban grit of Lodhi Art District or a cozy, indoor setting, we help you pick spots that resonate with your relationship.
- The Day Of: Expect a mix of candid storytelling and guided, cinematic portraits. We use fast prime lenses (f/1.4 or f/1.2) to get that soft, dreamy background blur that makes your subjects pop.
- The Deliverables: You get more than just the final, magazine-quality retouched images. We provide a raw dump of 250-300 color-corrected high-resolution JPEGs so you have the full story of the day, plus a professionally edited social media reel to share the magic instantly.
Why Choose Candid Photography?
Because your wedding isn't a film set, and you aren't actors. When you look back at these photos in a few years, you don't want to see how well you posed; you want to remember how you felt. We capture the blink-and-miss moments—the way he makes you laugh, the way she looks at you when you aren't paying attention. That is the kind of legacy we want to help you build.
