About Golden Phere

We photograph families, not poses

from Delhi, wherever you are

Golden Phere is a small team of photographers and filmmakers. We keep our calendar small on purpose, so every wedding gets the whole team, not a second unit.

Why we started

For the photos everyone else missed

We’ve all been guests at weddings where the photographer was busy lining people up for the stage while the real moments happened just behind them. Nani fixing the bride’s dupatta. The groom’s friends lifting him before anyone was ready. A father pretending he wasn’t crying.

Golden Phere is our answer to that. We plan each wedding carefully, the timeline, the light and the people who matter most, so that on the day we can stop directing and start noticing.

We’re based in Delhi and we keep our calendar small on purpose. When you book us, the people you meet are the people who turn up.

What we believe

The family is the story

A wedding is two families meeting properly for the first time. We spend as much time with your parents, siblings and grandparents as we do with the two of you.

Direction should be invisible

We’ll guide you through portraits, quickly and gently. Everything else we let happen. We would rather wait for a real laugh than ask for one.

Light is planned, not lucky

We study every venue at the hour of your ceremony. We know where the sun will sit during the pheras, and which corner of the lawn turns gold at six.

Deadlines are part of the craft

Sneak peek in 72 hours, full gallery in six weeks, album in ten. We give you the dates before you book, and we keep them.

Who will be at your wedding

Follows the guests, the children and the quiet corners. The photos that make families cry usually come from this camera.

In their words

They found my Nani in the crowd during the pheras and got the one photo of her crying. That picture is on her wall now.
Priya & KaranUdaipur
The sneak peek arrived two days later, while our relatives were still at our house. Everyone crowded around one phone.
Simran & AakashDelhi
We asked for no cheesy poses and they took that seriously. The film has our actual vows in it, which I didn’t expect.
