Geeshan was actually one of the first vendors we had reached out to for our wedding (before we had even finalised the exact date and location!). We came across his profile via social media and fell in love with his photography style.

Geeshan was super easy to talk to and understood what we were looking for. Something that was important to us was to not have too much of our time at the wedding taken up by photography only, and we wanted the time to interact with our friends and family. Safe to say, for the most part we were barely aware of the photography and video team, but looking back at Read More the pictures today we are constantly surprised by the shots, wondering to ourselves "how did they capture this?!". They were incredibly respectful and easy to work with.

Andre and I have been over the moon reliving our wedding day through the beautifully curated gallery pulled-together by Geeshan and his team. We can tell that every image has been carefully selected with intent and edited where needed, to allow us to fully enjoy the photos. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for giving us these photos that we can cherish forever.

I knew Geeshan from my best friend’s wedding years ago. And knew since then I’d want to work with him one day for mine. Cuz it was one of the best and most fun wedding shoots I’ve ever had to do. And his photos were so different and authentic.
Loved working with Geeshan and his team. From the booking process to finally receiving our wedding gallery it was very professional and client centric. They were super easy and relaxed on the day of the wedding. They were open to taking a risk and worked with whatever they got on the day. We did a really cool shoot in a little alleyway in front of the Read More church while waiting to go in and it turned out so good. They catered to every single request we made. We never felt disturbed or interrupted by the crew. More importantly The pictures look great. Very natural and candid exactly the way we wanted our wedding to be captured.

I had crossed path with Geeshan and his team during my brother’s wedding in 2022. From that time I knew he was going to be my go to person at my wedding. One of the most unique and fascinating things about the entire team is the sheer creativity with which they bring forward magic through their lens. From candid moments, to colorful textures to black and white portraits, every picture is a vow factor. Each photo which the team clicks is a story in itself.

The entire team works with so much passion, dedication and patience which makes you listen to them when they ask you to pose around to Read More get the perfect shot. I highly recommend Geeshan and his entire team, they are unique, creative and their attention to details is what makes them so easy breezy and loving to work with. Can’t recommend them enough!!!

I couldn't be happier with the incredible job the wedding videographer and photographer did for our big day. They truly captured every special moment with perfection and professionalism.

From the moment we met them, they showed great attention to detail and listened to exactly what we wanted to capture. They made us feel comfortable and relaxed, which really helped during such a hectic day.

They were not invasive at all and yet managed to capture the most intimate and emotional moments. It's as if they were invisible, filming and photographing everything without interrupting or being a Read More distraction.

The quality of their work is outstanding. The final footage and photos are absolutely stunning, with beautiful lighting, composition, and clarity. They have a great eye for capturing the smallest details that really made our day unique.

The editing and post-production were also handled expertly. They created a beautiful storyline with the footage, and the music choices perfectly complemented the emotions of the day.

Furthermore, their communication throughout the whole process was exceptional. They were responsive to all our requests and kept us informed every step of the way.

Overall, the wedding videographer and photographer exceeded all our expectations. They truly went above and beyond to capture the essence of our special day. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a talented and reliable team to capture their wedding memories.

Following first choosing Geeshan to take our engagement photographs in Sri Lanka in 2018 , we knew we had chosen well and had no hesitation in inviting him to be our wedding photographer in Phuket in March of this year .

Geeshan demeanour is very laid back , creating an air of calm and control . He listens and understands perfectly what style and mood of pictures that we were looking for our big day .

We highly recommend Geeshan owing to his professionalism , imagination , relaxed style and above all the stunning photographs that he produces .

We are over the moon with our Read More wedding photos and cannot thank Geeshan enough . If anybody is looking for a photographer who is reliable and that they can trust to produce high quality visual memories of their special day or event , then look no further than Geeshan .

Many thanks again Geeshan and we look forward to working with you again in the future !

Geeshan and his team were so great in the run up and on the day of our wedding. Geeshan has such a calming and professional vibe, which is so great to have around on your wedding day! The amount of photos that we have is phenomenal and the spirit and energy of the day was captured so well. We would definitely recommend to anyone getting married in Sri Lanka and around the world.

HANNAH + LIAM

I had the pleasure to be photographed by Geeshan and his team on my wedding and for a personal project. Amazing work got my ideas straight away and very easy to work with. He captured the most important memories for life! Would highly recommend as he is very talented!

IANA + ANGELO

My husband and I planned our August 2018 beach wedding in Negombo Sri Lanka mainly from outside the country, and worried a lot about picking our vendors. Geeshan and his team were the perfect choice for our relaxed beach wedding. They totally put us at ease and were a pleasure to work with before, during and after. Our Friday event was rained out and I still remember that Geeshan's calm confidence made me feel better about it!

His team can create beautiful images and memories across the whole range of wedding events, from formal to casual - they provided beautiful photos of our traditional Read More ceremonies, captured our friends and families candidly having fun, and also were unfazed by less normal requests like a beach cricket game, a rained-out indoor musical talent show, and a super smoky pooja. After the wedding, it was great working with Charitha to get some sneak peeks, and then the huge well organized archive of our photos came quite quickly. Thank you for making our wedding weekend memories so great!
