Anu was absolutely amazing for our wedding! He is so talented and working with him was seamless. He perfectly captured all the special moments from our day. Our families are still raving about how great he is!

Anu went above and beyond! His communication was excellent, he is super easy to work with! We absolutely LOVE our wedding photos! We have hundreds of favorites!
It rained on our wedding day and Anu captured the most magical pictures in the rain! We are so happy with how everything turned out!
He captured the emotions of the day so perfectly. When we look at the pictures, we feel like we are reliving our wedding day. We highly recommend Anu!!

Anu was easily our favorite vendor for our wedding! Throughout the whole process, he was easy to work with and very responsive. On the wedding day, our family was also highly impressed with his work and how he was able to be on top of everything but it never felt intrusive. Despite our photo timeline starting 30 minutes late, Anu remained super professional and cheerful as we still managed to get all of our photos in with time to spare at the end! He was also a fun, creative person to talk with while we did our couples portraits. I just got married a few days ago, so we obviously don't have the photos back yet, but the ones from our engagement photoshoot were beautiful and were delivered faster than we expected!
Any questions?

Anu is undeniably fantastic at his job - our photos captured our day perfectly, from amazing detail shots to all the candid moments that we wanted to remember, to wonderful photos of our family and friends celebrating our wedding. Aside from providing priceless documentation of our wedding day, Anu was SO FUN to hang out with, and really had a handle on all the craziness of the day. He kept us on track, catered to our every ask and need, and STILL got amazing photos in the process. We got so many compliments from our guests on Anu’s attitude and energy the whole day - which by the way was HOT and all outside, and he was still somehow in 5 places at once. I don’t think our wedding would have been nearly as enjoyable for us and our guests without his expertise. If you are looking for a wonderful person and expert photographer that brings a truly authentic and thoughtful perspective to capture your wedding, Anu should be your first call!!!

Anu was so kind and a great communicator! His genuineness and thoughtfulness was felt through the entire process and was a welcome edition to our wedding day. The photos are also astounding. They came in a timely manner and are amazing quality. We adore them and the experience. Thank you, Anu!

Working with Anu for our engagement and wedding was such a great experience. Anu is easy to work with, communicates well and of course takes amazing photos. Anu got our wedding photos back to us in 2 weeks, and we were absolutely speechless looking through our wedding album!! The photos were beautiful and Anu captured our wedding day perfectly. 5 stars to Anu!!

Anu is the literal best. Our wedding pictures are going to be our most treasured possessions for the rest of our lives, and we could not be more obsessed with how they turned out. They were delivered WAY faster than we expected for both the engagement session (10 days) and wedding (less than 3 weeks!). Many of our friends getting married have waited months so we were prepared for the same. He even texted us some sneak peeks while we were on our honeymoon which was a special and personal touch. Throughout the planning process, Anu was fun and easy to work with and we genuinely enjoyed having him there as a part of our day the entire wedding - it was a long day and a large wedding and he was a highlight. Both before and after the wedding, any time my husband, my mom, or I texted him with a request or question, he would have it done in seconds somehow. We got so many compliment from our wedding party, family, and friends on Anu’s overall vibe while getting the job done. Not to mention, the photos and edits are STUNNING!!! He also photographed our dog beautifully which was so special!! Thank you Anu!!

Anu did an amazing job as the photographer for two of our wedding events - our pre-wedding haldi ceremony in our home + our traditional Hindu wedding at a temple in November 2023. There was a lot going on at both events and he did a great job of capturing all of the important moments.
He got our photos to us in a very reasonable time frame (4-6 weeks, when up to 2-3 months is very common for other photographers) and even sent a couple of them to us early so we could use them for thank you notes. We absolutely loved our first look photos and he did a great job of capturing a lot of fun candids of our guests as well.
We were so, so happy with our experience and would definitely hire Anu again!

I wish I could leave more than 5 stars. Anu is incredibly professional while still being warm and friendly. He arrived at our early getting ready time and by the end of our wedding day he felt like family, not to mention our entire wedding party loved him!! He captured every detail/ shot that we requested and more. He helped out around the bridal suite and even ran to the store for us and offered to give my grandma's friend a ride to our ceremony. He wore so many hats that day and still managed to take the most incredible photos, both posed and candid. He also let my bridal party play around with the camera for a bit. I have nothing but amazing things to say and would recommend Anu to anyone looking for a photographer.

Anu was absolutely amazing! My husband and I are an interracial couple and we had Anu as our photographer for our mehndi ceremony and full wedding day. He was early, communicative, constantly in motion, and made sure to capture every moment he possibly could! He took more pictures than two photographers could have, combined. He worked well with guests who wanted posed pictures with us, while capturing intimate moments, candid pictures, and detail shots in between. His pictures are stunning and we are SO happy we chose him. His energy and joy he brought to our events was a blessing for us and our families.

Anu is so professional, responsive, and has such a great eye for the candid moments.

Would suggest Anu for every event that requires pictures

Anu was our videographer for our wedding - and let me tell you something, I watch my wedding video ALL the time! Your wedding goes by so fast and you can miss so much, so to be able to go back and see it all is priceless. Anu did an AMAZING job of capturing what was most important to us - really hearing what we wanted and following through with it. We HIGHLY recommend him!
10/13/2022 • Karelia P
I couldn't recommend Anu more! He made the bride & groom photo session fun and relaxed and we LOVE our pictures so much. We received our pictures quickly, they were great quality and he was so professional throughout the process. Anu worked so hard the whole day of the wedding and somehow managed to be everywhere at once, capturing all of the little special moments that I couldn't have even asked for! He's the best!
10/10/2022 • Joyce J
We would highly recommend Anu to anyone! Anu has has an eye for detail, takes the most incredible photos, and made us feel so comfortable on our wedding day. He went above and beyond, working non stop to capture every moment. Our pictures came out AMAZING!

Anugraha was our videographer for our wedding. He met with us beforehand to understand our vision and vibe. Then he told us what he wanted to do and he created a video that told a story. He used songs from our ceremony and reception that were very meaningful. He used drone footage to show the beauty of the venue as well. I love watching our video and am very grateful for it.
10/09/2022 • Madeline W
Anu was absolutely amazing. He made sure we were taking care of but also providing us the best quality photos ever. His communication with us was amazing and we did not have to worry about anything. He captured every moment of our special day. Anu makes your day extra special with every photo he takes. And his price is very reasonable. You will not regret booking him!!!
10/09/2022 • Rebecca S
Anu took both our engagement and wedding photos. To say his work was exactly what we wanted would be an understatement. Our photos from both events were an absolute dream and he spent quality time getting to know us as he took our photos. Anu really cares about making his clients happy and will do whatever he can to capture the perfect moments. He went above and beyond to get the most absolutely beautiful shots at our wedding and now we have them framed in our home to see forever! Anu edited, gave us sneak peaks, and our full portfolio all in a timely manner. We will continue to use Anu for all of our photography needs in the future.
10/09/2022 • Meagan M
Anu was beyond thoughtful and kind throughout our entire wedding planning experience and for the actual wedding! His passion for photography is only exceeded by his love of the people he photographs and it shows through his attention to detail and thoughtful personality. He made us feel very at ease and comfortable the entire wedding day and feels like a part of a family now 💛 I would highly recommend Anu for any and all events you need photographed!
