I love compiling my favourite moments from the weddings I’ve photographed each year, and this is something I have been doing since 2015. Going back through each wedding gives me a chance to relive the wedding events and I’m always wowed by what I have had the privilege of capturing during the most intimate moments where emotions truly vary amongst loved ones.
From tears, joy, sadness, stress; all the highs and lows that a wedding day can bring, it’s an honour to be invited into a close circle to witness and capture moments that will last a lifetime and beyond. So, thank you to my 2025 couples.
It’s true that there is a set formula to every wedding day and the little moments could be lost amongst the rituals and ceremonies, but for me the little moments are the most important thing to capture as that’s what makes each wedding (I photograph), unique and this what I want to show.
My focus on any wedding day is to simply capture genuine moments filled with authentic raw emotion that unfold when you have your closest people in the same space.
I love capturing closeness, love, personalities on a wedding day and not to copy trends going viral on social media; trends fade, but capturing the real-ness of my couples’ day, whether it’s perfect or messy lasts a lifetime as that moment will be relived every time the photograph is seen.
Picking the selection below was a tough task (I say it every year)! I’m emotionally drawn to each photograph, so going from around 23,000 photographs delivered, down to 1800, then to 500, I settled on just under 150 photographs that I feel really focus on what I love about wedding days, and it comes back to capturing Real Moments, Raw Energy, Pure Emotion. The wedding day is much more than just capturing the ceremony itself; I love seeing people come together and capturing the tight hugs, the laughter, the tears, the energy, the small interactions, and I feel my couple’s vibe with this too.
I’ve been truly touched by some very kind words by my couples in person, on video calls, WhatsApp messages, and reviews. At one wedding, I went bright red and tried to hide as I was totally speechless by the kind words of the groom during his speech! I’m always humbled by the kind words received, so thank you everyone for your kind words.
My 2025 couples, a HUGE thank you for trusting in my vision when capturing your wedding day. I have fond memories of each wedding I’ve photographed and had a great time with your friends and family. I know the photographs will give you endless memories to remember, and I’m humbled to have been a witness to such a special day. I look forward to seeing you soon.
I’ve had great support on many of my shoots, so a huge thank you to Tejas, Sailesh, Meheer, Dev, and Kavi for your help. You have all been amazing and you always bring the highest level of energy when we’ve shot together. I look forward to many more shoots together.
The Ninedots community has been a huge influence on my work; it’s shaped my style of photography and it’s a privilege to be part of a strong community of top photographers. Speaking onstage to 150 photographers was an honour as I was well out of my comfort zone, so thank you Ninedots for pushing me.
To my family and friends, thank you for your support as always, especially to my wife Pinki, who has been there throughout.
Finally, my 2026 couples, I’m very excited to get to know you all, and to share your wedding stories. We’re going to have a lot of fun, so let’s do this!
For now, in a randomised order, here are my favourite moments from the weddings I captured in 2025.
Much love
Sanj
