We picked Anit for our wedding day 3 years ago and having interviewed a handful of photographers before the big day, what swung it for us was how down-to-earth and approachable Anit was. We felt calm and relaxed in his presence which was highly important for us. Have always found Anit to be super responsive and his photos have been excellent. We finally got our act together over lockdown to have the wedding album produced and were worried that perhaps Anit might not honour it (being 2+ years later) but it was nothing to worry about as he kept his promise to produce it. Thank you!

I was in need of some professional portraits and I contacted Marv after finding his business online. He attended my call right away and found an appointment for me immediately. He was very flexible and accommodating to my schedule. Once I got to the appointment, I was very impressed by his professionalism and interest in making sure my expectations were met and that the end product was to my liking.

He provided an array of photo proofs to select from and once I selected my favorites he quickly returned my selection after having edited them. I got 5 variations (in different dimensions) of each picture

We had the pleasure of working with Anit and his team at Heston Photo in July. Anit is such a down to earth guy, hes very chatty and easygoing. He made me and my husband feel relaxed during every event we had with Heston photo. We had to rearrange our wedding numerous times due to covid. Anit is very flexible and considerate to unfortunate circumstances. He was most helpful when we needed to rearrange dates. When you book Anit you do not just book the photographer. He makes an extra effort to speak to the guests and interacts with them going that extra mile which is very much an added bonus

Hi Sharad and Anit. We would like to thank you so much for our wonderful wedding pictures. The moments you have captured are amazing! We love all the pictures you have sent us and we can't wait for the album as we know it will be fantastic. Due to covid we had to change our original plans and date for our wedding. During this time we felt their service was so professional when we had to reschedule times and dates etc. Everytime we called, emailed and whatsapped, Heston would always respond to us quickly. Heston was by far one of our best suppliers during our wedding. We are so happy we chose

Fantastic photographers! Exactly what we wanted. We are so pleased with our wedding photos and can cherish these memories. Sharad makes you feel very relaxed and guides you for the right photos. He was great when our wedding got postponed three times. Absolute gem of a guy who also gave us plenty of recommendations too when we were stuck. He was punctual, inventive and creative. Could not recommend him more!!
