Indian Wedding Photography in Dallas

Indian weddings in Dallas are known for their elaborate grandeur, thick with tradition. What A Story is known for photographing the sanctity of the ceremony and the noise of everything around it, in equal measure.

We shoot across Dallas, Texas and the wider metroplex, from a single-day ceremony to a four-day weekend that moves between three venues.

Dallas, Held Still

Candid Wedding Photography in Dallas

Our belief here at What A Story is that you can pose to get good pictures, but the moments you’ll most want to remember are the ones you don’t pose for. Our candid and documentary work at Indian weddings comes entirely from our love of the moments nobody set up.

Love, In Motion

Indian Wedding Films in 4K

Weddings aren’t still. You don’t want a snapshot of the moment you spotted a loved one, you want the full retelling, so you can watch it a hundred times. Our films are shot in 4K and cut for your wedding alone. Same-day edits available as an add-on if you want something playing at the reception.

We’ve shot all over Dallas and out into the countryside, from downtown hotels to the ranches north of the city.

See every city we cover
  • Houston : Three and a half hours down I-45. A lot of Dallas families have half their relatives in Sugar Land, and we shoot both ends of that weekend.
  • New Jersey : A three-hour flight, and home to one of the largest Indian communities in the country. If half your guest list is in Edison, you already know.
  • Los Angeles : We’ve photographed a wedding at the BAPS mandir out there. Worth a look if yours is heading west.
Dallas is home, it just isn’t the only place we work

What a Dallas wedding actually costs

Pricing & Packages

Every wedding is a different number of events across a different number of days, so there’s no list to pick from. We build the package around what you’re actually covering.

Most of our Dallas couples land between $4,000 and $15,000, depending on how many events, how many days, and whether you want a film as well as photographs. Travel charges, where they apply, are quoted upfront, and nothing gets signed until every add-on is written down.

Ceremonies we know by heart

Every Tradition We Shoot

Telugu Weddings

Pellikuthuru and pellikoduku the day before, the jeelakarra bellam held over each other’s heads at the muhurtham, talambralu until there’s rice in everyone’s hair. For early days and late nights.

Punjabi & North Indian Weddings

Three nights, three different things. The sangeet is the music, the mehndi is the henna, the haldi is the turmeric. We know which one runs late.

Gujarati Weddings

The swanky sangeets to the vibrant and colorful pithi ceremonies, we’ve seen it all.

Tamil & Malayali Weddings

Be it the blaring nadaswaram or the tasteful chenda melam, the noise of a ceremony is not only beautiful, but so motivating to work with.

Sikh Weddings

The Anand Karaj and the four laavan, shot from where we’re allowed to stand. We ask the gurdwara first.

Muslim Weddings

The nikah signed in front of both families, and the walima that follows. Two days, two very different moods.

We’ll build the coverage plan around your ceremony.

Everything that comes with your booking

What You’ll Take Home

The Good Stuff

Ritual Coverage

Every ritual and tradition covered with the care and the dignity they each deserve.

Aerial Cinema

Films shot by drones, where permissible, to get the big picture of your big day.

An online gallery of all the pictures from the traditional family pictures to the perfect shots.

The Dream Book

 A physical printed copy of your favorite pictures, designed by hand, made with you in mind. 

Our Favorite Motivations

From the City of Dallas to happily ever after — here’s what they had to say.

From the first call to the final gallery

How We Work

It starts with a call. Your dates, your venues, how many events, who’s flying in. You get a quote with everything itemised, and nothing is signed until the add-ons are settled.

Closer to the day we walk the venues, sort the permits and drone authorisations, and build the schedule around your muhurtham rather than around us.

With you, every step of the way

Maternity, Gender Reveal and Newborn Photography in Dallas

Weddings don’t signal the end of anything. For every piece of life you’ll experience after it, we’re happy to be right there beside you. Maternity shoots, baby showers, gender reveals and newborn photography, all across DFW. And you can book the same photographer who shot your wedding, so nobody has to explain your family to a stranger twice.

FAQs

01. What is the best season for a Dallas wedding?

Fall, always. The summer heat begins to go down and the crisp of fall just comes down as the perfect space for an outdoor shoot in the dryness of Dallas.

02. What times do you recommend for outdoor shoots in Dallas?

Either early mornings or late evenings. Dallas has long days, with the sun rising at 6:30AM most days, and sometimes setting at around 9:30PM. Anytime after 11:00AM is a disaster waiting to happen so choose shoot times (and event times) carefully.

03. Do we require permits to take photos outdoors in Dallas?

It is really dependent on the locations, and venues. We recommend checking and making sure all permits are in place. A smooth experience is very important for you to have the best time at the shoots.

04. When will we receive all the photos and videos?

First set of edited pictures and the teaser film will be available within a few days of the wedding. All images and deliverables will be completed based on the calendar and how packed with weddings we are. Generally, it takes around 1-2 months to deliver everything.

05. Do you offer live-streaming for guests who cannot make it to our venues?

Yes! We offer a private, HD multi-camera stream with the rituals mic’d up so family from anywhere can hear your vows.
