Indian Weddings in Portland: photography & video
An Indian wedding is rarely a single day. Between the haldi, mehndi, sangeet, baraat, ceremony and reception, there can be four or five events across a long weekend, each with its own colors, music and rituals. MacroSnaps photographers and videographers can cover one event or all of them, and we plan each day with you so the coverage follows your family's traditions rather than a generic wedding checklist.
Portland is a growing city in Maine, home to roughly 67,000 people. Our crews work across Maine, so a Indian wedding in Portland gets the same packages, editing standards and delivery times as one in a major metro.
Hindu, Sikh, Jain and regional ceremonies all follow their own order, and the most important moments, such as the jaimala, kanyadaan, the pheras around the sacred fire, the sindoor and mangalsutra, or the laavan in a gurdwara, happen quickly. We ask about your rituals in advance, coordinate with your priest or granthi and planner, and position ourselves so we capture these moments without getting in the way of the family or the officiant.
For a typical Indian wedding, clients in Portland book about 6 hours of photography ($750) and 6 hours of videography ($1,300). Photography is $250 for the first hour and $100 for each additional hour; videography is $300 for the first hour and $200 for each additional hour, with a 2-hour minimum. The first-hour price includes travel, so Portland costs the same as anywhere else we work, and there are no quotes to wait for.
What we capture
Key moments we photograph and film in Portland
Haldi
Family applying turmeric paste to the couple, usually in daylight and often messy in the best way. We cover the laughter and the close-up details.
Mehndi
Henna designs being applied, the bride's hands and feet in detail, and the music and dancing that fill the afternoon around her.
Sangeet
Choreographed family performances, speeches and the open dance floor, with video capturing the music and the full routines.
Baraat
The groom's arrival on a horse, in a car or on foot, with the dhol, dancing relatives and the milni between families at the venue entrance.
Jaimala and ceremony rituals
The garland exchange, kanyadaan, the pheras or laavan, sindoor and mangalsutra, photographed from positions agreed with your officiant.
Vidaai
The bride's farewell to her family, an emotional moment that we cover quietly and with care.
Family portraits
Organized group photos with both sides of the family, which for Indian weddings can mean many combinations. We work from your list to move through them efficiently.
Reception
The couple's entrance, first dance, speeches, cake and the dance floor, along with the outfits and décor of the evening.

Our work








Planning tips
Planning your coverage in Portland
Map out every event
Send us a schedule for each day with start times, locations and the key rituals. This lets us suggest hours per event and plan travel between venues.
Book hours per event, not per weekend
A haldi or mehndi is often covered well in 2 to 3 hours, while the baraat and ceremony usually need 4 to 6 and the reception 4 to 5. You only pay for the hours you need.
Plan for light and the mandap
Haldi and mehndi photograph best in daylight or near windows. For the ceremony, let us know where the mandap will stand and whether there will be a sacred fire, so we can choose lenses and positions.
Add a second photographer or videographer
Large guest lists and simultaneous preparations, such as the bride getting ready while the baraat assembles, are easier to cover with a second photographer or second videographer.
Professional photography doesn't have to be expensive
