AUCKLAND INDIAN WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER
HINDU - GUJARATI - PUNJABI - SIKH - INDO FIJIANS - SOUTH INDIAN - ISLAMIC
Indian weddings aren’t just events… they’re full-on experiences.
The energy. The chaos. The colour. The emotions. The real moments in between.
This is where we thrive.
At Kouki Weddings, we’ve spent years deep in the world of Indian and South Asian weddings — from Hindu to Sikh, Muslim to fusion celebrations — capturing stories that are loud, proud, and unapologetically beautiful. Auckland’s diversity has given us a front-row seat to it all… and honestly, we love every second of it.
We’ve seen it. Indian brides marrying Kiwi grooms, different cultures blending in, traditions colliding in the best way possible. Two worlds coming together on one day? That’s magic. And we know exactly how to capture it without missing a beat. We don’t just “show up and shoot.” We understand the flow. The rituals. The timing. When to step in… and when to step back.
From the Baraat hype to the quiet emotional moments during the ceremony… from aunties fixing details to the wild dance floors — we’re already there before it even happens. That’s why couples trust us. Some even call us the Indian Wedding Guru… we just call it knowing our craft.Whether it’s Gujarati, Punjabi, Tamil, or a full multi-day celebration — we know how these weddings move, and we move with it.
ADVENTURE. ENGAGEMENT. EPIC SESSIONS 🏔️✨
Let’s be real! Wedding days move fast. That’s why we take things further.Our pre-wedding, engagement, and epic sessions are where we slow things down and create something next level. No timelines. No pressure. Just you two, good vibes, and insane locations. Think wild coastlines, mountains, golden sunsets, or somewhere completely off the grid. This is where your story gets cinematic.
COLOUR. CULTURE. CHAOS (THE GOOD KIND) 🎉
Sangeet nights. Mehndi hands. Jaggo madness. This is where Indian weddings come alive. And we’re not just documenting it. We’re in it with you.
We understand how important these traditions are. The colours, the textures, the details… they’re not just pretty, they mean something. And we capture it in a way that feels real, not staged.
CEREMONIES AT PRE-WEDDINGS
We don’t just show up on the wedding day we’re in it from the very beginning.
From Mehndi to Haldi, Sangeet. Garba, Jaggo to Choora, and everything in between… this is where the real energy kicks off. These pre-wedding events aren’t just “extras” they’re packed with culture, emotion, and some of the best moments of the entire celebration.
This is where we get to know your people.
Your loud cousins. Your emotional parents. Your hype crew.
By being there early, we build that connection — so by the time the wedding day hits, we’re not strangers with cameras… we’re part of the vibe. By day three?
We’re basically family.
And that’s when the magic happens! Eeal moments, real reactions, no awkwardness… just everything flowing naturally while we capture it all as it unfolds.
DETAILS & PREPARATION
Before the chaos kicks in, this is where the story quietly begins.
The jewellery. The dupatta. The mangalsutra. The mehndi.
All the little details you spent months planning, we don’t overlook any of it.
We arrive early, before the crowd, before the noise, so we can capture the space exactly how it feels. Clean, intentional, and full of anticipation. The ceremony setup, the reception vibe, the atmosphere before it all unfolds.
Then we shift into prep mode. This is where things get real.
Close friends, family, laughter, nerves, last minute touch ups, all happening at once.
No forced moments. No over directing. Just letting you be you, surrounded by your people. Because these quiet, in between moments
they hit just as hard as the big ones. And trust us, when you look back, these are the frames that bring everything flooding back 🔥
THE INDIAN WEDDING CEREMONY
Indian weddings are deeply traditional and formal, filled with a rich array of rituals. With our extensive knowledge and expertise in a diverse range of Indian wedding traditions, we’ll work closely with you to understand every detail of your ceremony. Together, we’ll plan your group and family photos, deciding whether to capture each guest or focus on immediate family and friends to ensure a smooth process.
After the family photos, we can seamlessly fit in the bridal portrait shoots. We’ll be there not only for the formal family portraits but also for the candid, joyous moments of blessings and well-wishes. These are the cherished memories that will light up your hearts and bring joy for a lifetime.

As experienced Indian wedding photographers in Auckland, we know how to work with dynamic lighting, fast paced timelines, and large guest numbers, ensuring nothing is missed. Our goal is to deliver a collection of photos and films that reflect the true energy and emotion of your celebration.

WHAT IS THE PRICING? HOW DOES IT WORK WITH MULTI DAYS EVENTS?

The coverage options for the main day range from 8 hours for Photo & Video and 12 hours photo & video. You can choose a package that suits your needs best from the options
If you have additional events on different days, such as pre-wedding rituals, rehearsal dinners, or post-wedding celebrations, the coverage for those days is charged separately at an hourly rate. The hourly rate for these additional days is $650 per hour, with a minimum requirement of 2 consecutive hours.
It's important to note that the Kouki Weddings will only offer coverage for additional days once you have booked the main wedding day with us. This ensures that we can accommodate your needs and properly allocate resources for the multiple-day event.
