I'm Vijith (Vij), a Kempston Hardwick wedding photographer specialising in bright, natural wedding photos and engagement photography. I combine documentary storytelling with calm, creative art‑direction.
I’m Vijith Vijay — Wedding Photographer, documentary film-maker and storyteller based in Kempston Hardwick. With over a decade in the creative industry, I specialise in wedding photography and engagement photography, capturing honest moments and joyful details with a bright, clean, and natural style flavoured with subtle hints of colour. Why choose me? My work is rooted in documentary storytelling: I watch, listen and react to the day so your photos feel genuine, not posed. At the same time I bring art direction when it matters — gentle guidance for portraits, considered compositions for your most important moments, and a consistent visual tone so your wedding album reads like a story. Couples often tell me they appreciate how relaxed and approachable I am; I’m down-to-earth, easy to talk to, and focused on making the day feel uncomplicated and enjoyable. How I work with couples: the process starts with a friendly conversation where I learn what matters most to you — whether that’s candid family moments, creative couple portraits, or capturing a vibrant cultural ceremony. On the day I aim to be unobtrusive during the ceremony and reception, blending documentary coverage with calm direction for portraits and group shots. After the wedding I carefully edit and sequence the images so you receive a cohesive collection of professional wedding photos that reflect the atmosphere, emotion and colour of your day. I’m proud of my ability to travel for weddings across the UK while offering a consistent, personal service from Kempston Hardwick. While wedding photography is my primary focus, I also create documentary films and short films as an additional offering for couples who want a moving-story complement to their still images. If you value thoughtful storytelling, vivid yet natural imagery, and a photographer who feels like a supportive part of your day, let’s talk. I love turning fleeting moments into lasting memories — and helping couples look back at their wedding with the same warmth they felt on the day.
