A friend recommended them to me, their photos had lighting issues that I pointed out but their portfolio showcased some promising work so I hired them for 2 days

9th June 2023 - Small Mehendi and Haldi events at my home (1photog+1 videog)
11th June 2023 - Wedding & Reception in Delhi (3 photog+2 videog)


Positives
The team was on time on both days
They uploaded the raw photos within 2 days of shooting
They made a quick full-length video for my inlaws to see within 3 days
Their videographer Sumit could only do archaic traditional shots but he was the only one who seemed to put in some effort - he stayed late during Mehendi to shoot and was the last one standing in the wedding as well.
The team was mostly well behaved on the day of shoots
They were mostly cooperative during post-production and incorporated suggested changes, maybe not in one go, but they did.

Negatives
They appeared disengaged and uninterested in capturing the essence of the day. The team had absolutely 0 interest in taking candid photographs that I had asked for and hired 2 folks for. The photographers were only taking photos if someone themselves called them for a photo. It was evident that they had little experience or skill in capturing genuine moments.
For eg. I as the bride had to point out in all 3 events to cover other people who were doing something fun around me.
The videographers just wanted to have enough material for a 45 min film and that’s it, beyond that they didn’t try to cover the visitors, fun stuff by family members -nothing.
Venue coverage was also not complete since a whole section with fountains at the back and deewans in the front is missing
The whites on the cameras were probably not well adjusted, all the pics have a yellow orange undertone and that’s very frustrating, pics taken one iphone and normal phones have better color settings than their cameras.In the first set of edited pics, my lehenga colors were completely distorted. The pictures were a lil too saturated. I still can’t see the right color of my lehenga in one picture.
I explained how to organize better for coverage on my wedding day!!!!!!!!!!! I had the sense to remind Mr. Tejas that once we're on the stage let there be one photographer and one videographer only! No idea why was the extra person placed with us then. I had hired an extra person just before the wedding day to cover guests, not to stand still.
They lacked the direction needed to coordinate effectively, leading to multiple photographers covering the stage and not the guests. The photographers just stood in one place and didn’t capture the guests or moments. And even on the stage they didn’t ask us to adjust chins or ask the guests to smile. Mr Tejas came himself and managed to click the least number of photographs.
They failed to move and position themselves to ensure they captured all the important guests and events. As a result, many key moments were left undocumented, leaving us with an incomplete and underwhelming collection of memories. Even during Jaimala when the hall was full there are two video clips covering the guests and that too not a 180-degree turn. Can’t tell how dissatisfied my parents are, so many people met them and left and have no coverage or photos - that’s just humiliating and sad.
Traditional photographer's insistence on sticking to outdated and archaic poses (For eg asking my husband to pose with a newspaper)
The video editor lacked attention to detail, despite multiple messages to Mr Tejas, multiple shots were missed. Pooja starts hote hi put an English song in the video in the first cut.
Mr Tejas says he’ll call to discuss the mistakes but hasn’t done so far. He is moderately responsive on Whatsapp messaging though - not very prompt but decent.

I really want to be patient and sympathetic, but whenever someone comes and we open the drive, it just makes me so upset. However, Mr. Tejas has acknowledged his mistake and said he’s apologetic on Whatsapp so they might improve in the future.

Don't choose if you want candid photography, doesn't cover well, low creativity

They offer a good bunch of services related to wedding photography. We took a customized package that included many things: candid, traditional photography, videography. It was all included except for the drone. A pleasant experience with the team. Good work
