    Nirav is the Man!

    Nirav photographed our wedding, and let me tell you.. the images and memories he captured are incredible. Completely timeless, elegant, and fun. The entire experience was a breeze. Throughout the night we did not even notice he was there, he was in the shadows capturing perfect moments! He delivered the photos and memorabilia in an extremely timely manner. Thank you Nirav!

    Amazing and friendly/fun photogrpaher

    Nirav and his assistant were nothing less than AMAZING for my 2-day wedding in OC, California! They had become a part of the family after it all was over and even accomadated a last minute beach photo shoot as my husband and I never did engagement pictures! He knew exactly what to capture! The video highlight was my favorite and he was very professional! LOVED every picture and so grateful we had him there! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

    So happy with our choice!



    Nirav will exceed your expectations in every way. While I felt confident that he would produce amazing images just from his Instagram, I wasn’t prepared for how much and how quickly we would both like and trust him. He basically became a member of our family during our 5 days of wedding events.

    He was always ready to jump in and problem solve for us; at times acting as our hype-man, keeping our energy up during the shoots; our day-of-planner, helping us adjust to a first look at the last minute; our sense of humor, capturing some classically frantic moments that are inevitable during a wedding.

    Honestly, he was a literal hero, he even caught my elderly father from experiencing a bad fall!

    He captured our guests, both human and canine, at their most flattering angles. He scouted nearby places to shoot that would fit the themes of both our Indian and Western ceremonies and he and his videographer shot and prepared awesome highlight videos set to music.

    Lastly, he hooked us up with beautiful albums for both sets of parents and guided us in picking a memorable album of our own. We struggled with decision making; he was patient and supportive while also keeping us accountable to getting it done and making it special and unique. While we almost phoned in our album design, his gentle persuading to think again led us to the super deluxe album with the brushed metal finish on the cover which ended up making my golden gown look exactly as it does in real-life! He hand delivered it to our home along with our images on a beautiful unique jump drive and a ton of 5x7 prints in a special box that are ready to go right into collage frames for our walls.

    The decision to use Indian Wedding Snap was the best one we made! If I had to, I would have switched our venue before switching our photographer. Nirav has given us timeless images that capture all the effort, intention and love we hoped to show which we will be proud to share with family and friends for generations.

    Book Nirav!

    Niscol & Nirmala

    Nirav and his crew were very accommodating. They came to my home and blended in with my family within minutes. They made themselves known to my guests and made everyone feel very comfortable about having their pictures taken. As any wedding there were a few hiccups but Nirav and his crew were able to get through it and make it happen for me.

    An unforgettable experience

    The most obvious element that turned our big day into a remarkable journey was Nirav’s ingenuity. His work was ‘a-flawlessly-done-superb-job’. It was a pure pleasure to have our wedding event covered by him and his associate. Our Album, pictures and the cinematic highlight was beyond perfect. Everybody fully enjoyed and admired the way he brilliantly captured and artistically etched every single moment into a perfect memory. Also, this guy’s amiable way of addressing his clients’ needs and wishes to a T makes him the best man to do the job. Would definitely love to work with him again.

    Indian Wedding Snap - “Nirav Solanki” : true artist

    Indian Wedding Snap - “Nirav Solanki” made me and my husband feel so comfortable on our Pre Wedding Shoot, Shagun Cermony, Wedding days(Sikh and Hindu), ‘Comfortable’ because we knew that he would not only get the job done (punctual, professional, great quality) but comfortable in the sense that we were working with true artist.
    We always felt freedom because he wanted what we wanted. We feel like it is rare today to find professionals with true heart and talent behind every inch of their work. Nirav is amazing to work with - he captured every beautiful moment of our day and turned our photos into masterpieces that we will cherish forever. We’ll never go anywhere else after experiencing what he can do.

    Highly recommend Nirav and his team for your special day :)

    We had to move our wedding location from India to LA due to Covid and were scrambling to get things in order. We hired Indian Wedding Snap's team to cover our wedding event couple of days before the event. Even on such short notice, Nirav and his team were amazing at the location and great to work with.
    We were so impressed with their work, we decided to get them cover our reception in bay area. Nirav and Richard's energy was spot-on and captured our wedding beautifully. Highly recommend Indian Wedding Snap! :)

    Small Indian wedding captured beautifully

    So we had a 70 person wedding in my fathers backyard and hired Nirav as our photographer. He had the most competitive pricing! Nirav is super friendly and creative. My wedding through the crazy weather change and unexpected shift was shot beautifully. I had hired him for two days for videography and photography. Honestly my wingman through both events. He is super quick with the photos and is invested in what you as the couple want. And if you don’t know, then Nirav is an excellent guide. He has knowledge of the different Ceremonies and captures key elements craftfully. We ordered our album and it was delivered within two days. And it was gorgeous! Nirav has an eye for taking photos for print. We received wall art from Nirav as well and let me tell you how stunning his photograph of husband and I look blown up. Richard is also a gem of a human being! He caught our moments on video and did it well! Nothing but love for the duo !

    Absolutely amazing!

    Where to begin! Nirav is absolutely amazing! From our first call he was extremely professional, friendly and he answered all my questions. When we did our engagement shoot he directed us very well and explained why we would stand there and would show us the photos after. He was super attentive and has an amazing eye! His attention to the little details are superb! We absolutely love him! He delivered our album and we were in complete awe, all the photos were simply amazing you can see the emotions in the photographs. Best part is that we can always have these great memories and the photos tell the most wonderful story. We knew from the beginning that he did great work based off of his other photos, so we were super excited to move forward with him, and so was he( which was great!). Best decision we ever made! We absolutely love Nirav and would definitely recommend and use again!

    Fantastic photographer, excellent service, and great guy!

    Nirav was highly recommended to us by a very good friend who has used his services for personal and business purposes multiple times. Quite simply, I wouldn't interview another photographer if I had to do it again. Some of his greatest strengths: (i) his energy and enthusiasm are fantastic... a personal trainer in a photographer's shell, (ii) he really listens to your needs and wants, and skillfully adds in his suggestions to help fulfill your wishes, (iii) he is very timely on delivery of his product -- more often than not, we delayed the process, not him, (iv) although his rates are very competitive to start, he worked with us to make things fit within our budget, and (v) most importantly, his photos and albums are excellent!

    Nirav was very professional and creative with us during our engagement photo shoot. My fiance and I showed up a little late and he was able to shoot over the scheduled time with us to make sure we got every angle/picture that day which we appreciated. He is a very talented photographer and we both recommend him for any type of photo shoot.

    My fiance and I hired Nirav to take our engagement photos. Nirav was professional and accommodating (meeting us at the desired location which was about 1 hour away). He brought multiple lenses to take different shots and the pictures turned out great. He was able to turnaround the photos in a matter of days, which was amazing.
    My one piece of feedback for Nirav would be for him to be more comfortable directing us. There were times when we would ask about our body/hand positions - so he should feel comfortable being vocal!

    Nirav knows professional photography!

    Nirav is an excellent choice for a photographer. I searched all over the place for the right photographer for our wedding and found him to be the best. He was flexible on our needs and his photography and professionalism at the wedding was above par. The final product was beautiful and the photos were excellent quality.
