Pakistani Weddings in Des Plaines: photography & video

A Pakistani wedding often unfolds over several events: dholki evenings with family songs, a colorful mehndi, the nikah, the baraat with the rukhsati at its close, and the valima hosted by the groom's family. MacroSnaps photographers and videographers can cover each of these, and we plan the coverage around how your family celebrates, whether events are held together or separately, at home, in a masjid or in a banquet hall.

Des Plaines is a growing city in Illinois, home to roughly 59,000 people. Our crews work across Illinois, so a Pakistani wedding in Des Plaines gets the same packages, editing standards and delivery times as one in a major metro.

We are respectful of religious and family preferences. If your nikah takes place in a masjid, we follow its guidelines on where we can stand. If your family prefers gender-segregated seating or would like women-only areas photographed in a particular way, tell us in advance and we will plan accordingly. Moments like the signing of the nikah nama, the first look in the mirror and the rukhsati are covered calmly and without interrupting.

For a typical Pakistani wedding, clients in Des Plaines 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 Des Plaines costs the same as anywhere else we work, and there are no quotes to wait for.
