Who This Is For

Your first shoot together?
I'll guide every moment.

Most couples I work with have never done a professional shoot before. That's exactly who this is for. Every session is fully directed — from how to stand, to where to look, to when to just be yourselves. You arrive as you are. The images do the rest.

Now booking couples across Birmingham and the West Midlands.

Meet Varun

Your Photographer,
Start to Finish.

Eight years photographing couples — refining one focused craft across 110+ sessions in 14 countries. Each session is personally shaped and directed by me, from the first frame to the final gallery, with a clear eye on rhythm, light, emotion, and detail.

Most couples arrive feeling unsure in front of the camera. Within minutes, the session becomes calm, natural, and guided. You are not left to pose or perform — I direct the experience carefully, so the photographs feel composed, intimate, and true to you.

The Signature Couple Shoot is £700 for a full two-hour session. The Mini Couple Session is £450 for a focused 45-minute shoot on weekday afternoons. A non-refundable deposit confirms your booking, with the balance due on session day. No hidden fees, no upsells later.

Most couples I work with have never done a professional shoot either. Every session is fully directed from start to finish — how to stand, where to look, when to just be yourselves. My job is to make sure you leave feeling it was effortless. That's the craft.

I work from three carefully selected locations within thirty minutes of Birmingham — Earlswood Lakes in Solihull, Birmingham Botanical Gardens, and Elmdon Park in Solihull. You choose the one that fits the aesthetic you want, and after booking you'll receive a full shoot guide — location details, parking, timing, and clear notes on what to wear.

British weather is part of the planning. Light rain can actually create some of the most beautiful images — soft light, reflective surfaces, intimate compositions. For heavy rain or unworkable conditions, we reschedule to the next available date at no extra cost. I'd rather we wait a week for the right day than rush through the wrong one.

The Signature Couple Shoot includes 100+ professionally edited, high-resolution images. The Mini Couple Session includes 30 edited images. Both are delivered within two weeks through a private online gallery with unlimited downloads. You own the files for personal use — print them, share them, pass them to your wedding album designer, whatever you like.

Yes — but limited. Couple sessions are my main focus, with only five wedding bookings each year. Keeping the work this limited is what makes both feel the way they do. If you're getting married and would like to learn more, the Birmingham Weddings page has full details.

I take a limited number of sessions each month, with bookings opening around one month in advance. If you have a specific date in mind — an anniversary, a visit home, a date before the wedding — get in touch as early as you can to secure it.
