How Many Hours of Photography and Videography Do You Need for an Indian Wedding?

If you’re planning an Indian wedding in Colorado, across the U.S., or at a destination location worldwide, one of the most common questions we hear is: How many hours of photography and videography coverage do we need? With multi-day celebrations that include Haldi, Sangeet, Baraat, the wedding ceremony, and reception, the right amount of coverage ensures every tradition and moment is documented.

We often provide 16–20 total hours of coverage spread across multiple events. Most couples at venues like Cheyenne Mountain Resort in Colorado Springs find that 17–18 hours is the perfect amount. This includes travel time to and from portrait locations on-site, so you don’t feel rushed.

As a traveling destination Indian wedding photography and videography team, we bring our experience to weddings across the country. Whether you’re hosting in Colorado, Mexico, or another international destination, we structure your custom coverage around the flow of your events so nothing is missed.

 

 

What’s Included in 17–18 Hours of Indian Wedding Coverage?

  • Solo portraits of the bride at each event
  • Solo portraits of the groom at each event
  • Couple’s portraits at each event
  • Family and extended family portraits
  • Ballroom, ceremony, and decor details

After covering many Indian weddings in Colorado and beyond, we’ve seen the same trend: couples who book 17–18 hours of coverage feel confident knowing every key part of their wedding is captured. From getting ready moments to the vidaii, nothing is left out.
