Muslim Weddings in Kanata: 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.

Kanata is a growing city in Ontario, home to roughly 90,000 people. Our crews work across Ontario, so a Muslim wedding in Kanata gets the same packages, editing standards and delivery times as one in a major metro.

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 Kanata 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 Kanata costs the same as anywhere else we work, and there are no quotes to wait for.
