About

On Hitched.co.uk since 2011

Last update: December 2025

I’m Harmit, I live in Brixton in South London and have been photographing weddings all over London and beyond for over a decade. Rather than me giving you a full Tinder like bio, you’ll get a much better sense of what I’m like through a quick perusal of my 200+ verified Google Reviews.

What I will tell you a bit about here is my values. My background is in photojournalism and documentary work. And I have worked in the charity and human rights field for a long time. So things like equality, representation and authenticity matter to me.

I reflect these values in my wedding photography. Which means, for example, that I don’t photograph brides as if they're fairytale princesses or grooms as if they're in one of those cringey monochrome aftershave ads. I find that style of wedding photography anachronistic. Throughout a wedding day, I just try to represent couples as equal partners, and having a blast with their family and friends.

I try to bring further ethical dimensions to my work too.

You’ve probably learned by now that your wedding or civil partnership is swirling in the vortex of the ‘wedding-industrial complex’, where there’s a ‘reassuringly expensive’ mark-up on everything. That includes lots of mediocre wedding photographers stridently stating on their websites that "wedding photography prices start at £1,795”.

I try to keep my prices as low, fair and transparent as possible. The professional London wedding photographers whose work I’d compare mine to charge close to double my fee. You can see lots of transparent information about my prices and packages here.

Something else I do is divert part of my fee to charity. So, for every booking, £25 of the fee is donated to one of my favourite charities - Bliss, the Trussell Trust or the Disasters Emergency Committee. In any given year, this raises over £1,500 for charity.

I hold an MA (Distinction) in Photojournalism and Documentary Photography from the London College of Communication. As well as photographing weddings I still work with charities and progressive not-for-profit organisations to tell photo-based stories about social issues. I also love shooting gigs. And I have recently started shooting portraits and headshots.

So, while I know that’s not a standard personal profile, I hope it’s more useful than a Tinder like bio about how much I love coffee and long walks (I’m not a big fan of either to be honest).

A true artist with a keen eye for detail

How can I even begin with Harmit? If there is anything you can take from this review, it is that he has been absolutely phenomenal to work with, and that he is a true artist with a keen eye for detail.

My wife and I were married in August 2025, and as a queer couple we were rather particular about our vendors and who we asked to work with us on our special day. Harmit was one of the first we met in person as we asked him to do a few engagement shoots of us many months before our wedding date. The day was rather cloudy, but my (now) wife and I had such a blast with him wandering through the canals at Camden and the greenery of Hampstead Heath. With the overcast skies it was pretty easy to imagine that everything could be washed out and dull, but I think Harmit caught us at our most alive and vibrant every time. He indulged some of our sillier requests, and all in all it was quite a great time.

For the day of the wedding itself, months later, Harmit was truly in perfect form and we were so impressed by his professionalism, his flexibility, and his ability to capture the day. Where the engagement shoot had been more overcast our wedding day had so much more colour in it, and we were absolutely blown away when the pictures came back. We had been impressed by the previous shoot, but Harmit truly knocked it out of the park with our August wedding photos. He was present everywhere he could possibly be, unobtrusively taking shot after shot, and he followed our proposed schedule down to the minute in each of the places we needed to be.

He also surprised us with the variety of styles of shots he could get. We had group pictures, getting ready photos, photos during the ceremony, action shots as we came back up the aisle, shots during the party, and more. We had asked if he would be willing to do some flat lay shoots of things like our rings, dresses, etc., and he had mentioned he was rather more of an observational photographer and so tended not to, but on the day he arranged some incredible flat lay shoots as well without even any prompting. I cannot stress enough just how pleased we are, he really did go above and beyond for us and we are so incredibly thankful.

Harmit has helped us record these memories we'll cherish for the rest of our lives. He was a delight to work with, professional in every sense, and supremely capable. If you want excellent photos for a wedding (and I'm sure anything else!) he should definitely be your pick.

Super helpful and pleasant to work with

Harmit was great along the whole journey. He was always there whenever friends or family grabbed their phones to take an informal picture to catch a professional shot for us too. Looking forward to seeing the finished product!

Wedding photography @ Islington Town Hall + Coin Laundry Exmouth Market

Harmit was an absolute joy to work with and did a fantastic job photographing our wedding day at Islington Town Hall and Coin Laundry on Exmouth Market. We selected Harmit because of his fair and transparent pricing and approach (limited big group shots!) and he delivered on every level. From the very first phone call he made us both feel at ease, and on the day he was kind, patient and helped everything run smoothly. We are so happy with the fun and vibrant photos that perfectly capture the day. Would highly recommend!

Superb photos & an excellent service

Harmit was the perfect photographer for our wedding. Throughout the whole process - from first coming across his website and our first phone call with him, to the wedding day itself and receiving the photos afterwards - he has been a true professional and a pleasure to liaise with. He clearly has a very strong commitment to, and respect for, the art & craft of his photography (which is superb), AND being a decent human. In my humble opinion, that's quite a rare find. For those qualities to ALSO be combined with an extremely reasonable pricing structure meant that we feel pretty smug to have lucked out by booking such an excellent photographer! The photos themselves are better than we could have hoped for and they really capture the essence of our day. I was particularly happy to discover how many brilliant photos Harmit took during our ceremony and evening party, because (in the nicest possible way) I simply don't remember noticing him all that much at all - I think that conveys a sense of how well he blends in and how effectively he captures moments in his reportage style. We would recommend Harmit in a heartbeat.

We could not have been happier with the experience!

Harmit did an engagement shoot for my fiancée and me, and it was an absolute pleasure to work with him. From the very beginning of the planning stage, Harmit was responsive, thoughtful, and friendly—he had some great suggestions about where to take the photographs (we decided on Hampstead Heath, and it was the perfect choice for us) and always responded quickly when I had questions. At the same time, Harmit is wonderful with handling all the logistics (setting up a time and place to meet, taking care of paperwork, coordinating payment, etc.) and it made me feel very confident about working with him. My fiancée and I truly enjoyed spending time with Harmit on the day of the shoot as well. Our engagement shoot was the same day that I proposed, so it was lovely working with someone who made us feel so comfortable and relaxed so that we could enjoy the day.

On top of all else, my fiancée and I love the photographs that Harmit took, and our family and friends have loved seeing them as well. We also loved that he edited our photographs, but didn't photoshop/retouch them—when we look at the photographs, they look beautiful, and they capture what a happy and special day it was. If you are considering hiring Harmit, I whole-heartedly recommend that you do so.

Brilliant candid / documentary style wedding photos, friendly, fast & efficient service

Harmit was professional and friendly, and delivered lovely photos much more quickly than expected after our wedding day. His website and approach to wedding photography was so refreshing as we wanted candid, real shots with our loved ones rather than a stylised photoshoot and that is exactly what he delivered - while also capturing some beautiful more formal, posed group photos too. We loved the fun ones the most, they made us laugh!

As well as the wonderful photos, Harmit was warm and friendly and fun to be around. Thank you so much.

The value for the photos were also phenomenal, he charged way less than many other photographers for a style which we preferred so much more, and a portion of the cost was donated to charity. Thank you.

Harmit was fantastic for our two day wedding celebrations! We could not recommend more!

We booked Harmit to photograph our registry office ceremony, at Lambeth Town Hall and wedding reception the following day at Beckenham Place Mansion. He was fantastic, we felt really comfortable with him and loved his candid approach to documenting both days! He was also excellent and ensuring that we got the shots that we wanted and using the surrounding areas of both venues, despite the weather not being great!

If you are looking for a brilliant, and very reasonably priced London based photographer, Harmit is your guy!

A wonderful photographer!

Harmit was wonderful to work with before, during and after our wedding day! He made us feel instantly at ease and he captured beautiful moments throughout the entire day. We were so happy with our photographs and we would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a professional and kind photographer who takes vibrant, candid and joyful pictures!

Harmit was wonderful on our wedding day!

We booked Harmit in May 2024 to take photos on our very special wedding day at Asylum Chapel/AMP studios. He was absolutely brilliant, very professional and made our guests (and us) feel extremely comfortable in front of the camera. Harmit managed to capture all of the magical moments of our day including some that we were unable to witness such as our guests arriving at the chapel. I would 10000% book Harmit again!

Fantastic wedding photographer!!

We contacted Harmit about photographing our wedding after coming across his portfolio online and we couldn't be happier with the results! We were impressed by his ethos as well as by his creativity, warmth and sense of humour, which really come through in his images and sets them apart from what so many wedding photographers offer. Most importantly, Harmit is an incredibly kind person and it was a pleasure to have him around on what was such a special day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
