Muslim Weddings in Baltimore: photography & video

Muslim weddings share a common heart, the nikah, but the celebrations around it look very different from family to family. An Arab wedding may open with a zaffa of drums and dancing, a Turkish family may hold a henna night, a Somali, Nigerian or Malaysian wedding brings its own music and dress, and many couples, including converts, blend traditions of their own. MacroSnaps photographers and videographers plan coverage around how your family celebrates, from the nikah to the walima.

Baltimore is one of the biggest cities in Maryland, home to roughly 622,000 people. We cover Muslim wedding events at wedding and reception venues across the area, from American Visionary Art Museum, Baltimore Museum of Art and The Walters Art Museum to private homes, restaurants and community halls.

We are careful with religious and family preferences. If the nikah takes place in a masjid, we follow its guidelines on dress, shoes and where we can stand, and we confirm with the imam whether any part should not be photographed or filmed. If your events are gender-segregated, if some guests prefer not to be photographed, or if the bride will only be photographed without hijab in a women-only setting, tell us early and we will plan coverage and staffing that respects those wishes.

For a typical Muslim wedding, clients in Baltimore book about 5 hours of photography ($650) and 5 hours of videography ($1,100). 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 Baltimore costs the same as anywhere else we work, and there are no quotes to wait for.
