The studio

Completely passion driven

A small Indian wedding photography and film studio out of the San Francisco Bay Area — and, most weekends of the season, somewhere else entirely.

Our story

A magical journey,
and a very long one

We started out chasing the shot. It turned into something quieter — chasing the moment just after it.

A Gurdwara at sunrise and a rooftop reception the same weekend. Three languages in one toast. That collision is why we love this work.

Guri & the crew
Urban Phulkari Films

The world without photography would be meaningless to us if there were no light and colour, which open up our minds and express passion.

Urban Phulkari · the studio creed

What we believe

Six rules we actually keep

Not a mission statement — the working rules the crew is briefed on before every wedding.

Working with us

From enquiry to album

The crew

Who actually turns up
