New York
For couples who want to feel it all over again
A wedding is rarely one event. It is a Nikkah, the pheras, an Anand Karaj or a church aisle, then a holud, a sangeet, a reception, three generations in one room and a hundred small moments nobody planned. We learn your traditions before the day, so we know where to stand and which moments cannot be missed.

"You truly captured all the little moments and memories perfectly."
"Huge thank you to our amazing photographer for capturing our special day so beautifully! Every picture came out incredible and you truly captured all the little moments and memories perfectly. Couldn't recommend you enough. If you're looking for someone to capture your special day, definitely book him!"
- Nehal & Tisha"It honestly felt like they could read our minds!"
"Weddings can be one of the most hectic and overwhelming days, but Shah and the team made sure that photography and videography were the last things we had to worry about. From checking in to see if we needed water to making sure everyone felt comfortable, they went above and beyond to take care of us. It honestly felt like they could read our minds! Not only did they capture the most beautiful photos and videos, but they made the entire experience feel effortless and stress free. They were also incredibly attentive when it came to identifying our close family members and making sure all the important moments and family photos were captured. We couldn't have asked for a better team!"

We film the light in the vows and keep it for the people who come after you
Photography and film come from one team, so your day is covered once, properly, without two crews competing for the same angle.
Culture and tradition are the story, not the backdrop. The experienceWe don't just document your day. We protect it.
Lucent Films was founded in 2025, but the team behind it has spent more than seven years behind the lens at some of the most memorable weddings across NYC and beyond, capturing the moments that never repeat themselves. Our photography and film is elegant, timeless and unmistakably cinematic, with no trends you will cringe at in ten years.
Pricing matters, and any studio you choose is a real investment. Weddings are unpredictable, and experience is what keeps every moment from being missed.
The real question isn’t “who’s the cheapest.” It’s “who do I trust to handle it when things don’t go as planned?”
