Capturing Global Love Stories and Destination Weddings
From the historic streets of London to the tropical shores of Bali, I document love without borders. Every destination wedding brings a new light and a different rhythm, and I am here to ensure your story is told with the same elegance and timelessness as any local celebration.

About this collection
Shooting a destination wedding is a logistical dance. I work closely with your planners to understand the local light, venue acoustics, and ceremony timings, ensuring we are not chasing the sun but letting it frame your moments naturally. My team handles the equipment logistics so you can focus entirely on the celebration, knowing that your candid moments and portraits will look effortless, whether we are in a vineyard or a palace.
When you choose a destination for your wedding, you are choosing a unique atmosphere that cannot be replicated. My approach to global wedding photography is to balance the scale of the location with the intimacy of your personal story. Whether it is a Sikh ceremony in a California castle or a reception at the Natural History Museum in London, I focus on merging the grandeur of the venue with the genuine emotion of your day.
My 3-Day Heritage Package is specifically designed for destination celebrations. It allows me to move beyond single-event coverage and document the full arc of your journey, from the Haldi rituals to the final reception. This extended time ensures we have room for editorial couple portraits between events, without rushing through your special day.
My mother, Nisha Kundnani, plays an integral role in our destination shoots. Her expertise in luxury bridal styling ensures that your outfit, jewelry, and makeup translate perfectly to the local backdrop. Together, we manage the aesthetic side of the shoot, so you do not have to worry about how your look will interact with the lighting or surroundings. We blend into the background to capture candid moments, ensuring that the final album feels like a cohesive, editorial magazine feature rather than a staged photoshoot. This is how we bring your vision to life, anywhere in the world.
