Please don't waste your time and money. 1. We got a different person than the person whom we met with. Nothing about this was said. 2. We had requested two photographers, one traditional and one candid. On the day of the wedding, seemed like both of them had a competition on who will click more candid shots. 3. One of the person who showed up seemed to do us a favour by agreeing to shoot for us. Absolutely no professionalism. 4. Amongst the many rituals, less than a handful were captured. 5. The bride is present in almost all pics, groom is present in half the pics. Friends and relatives, only a lucky few made it. 6. The photographer forgot he had to capture the kaashi yatra. We proceeded with the ritual only after we requested for his presence and later after he arrived. 7. Post the Muhurtham, all friends and family requested to click pictures with us. We in turn requested the photographer to click our picture almost everytime. 8. Mr Shishir did call me after the Muhurtham to ask about the service. I had many things in my head that I did not give the above feedback my second mistake, first was to assume that these guys are professionals would not need hand holding on what needs to be clicked and what can be skipped. 10. We did not have a reception but a dinner party. My third mistake to mention this. We had to search for the photographers when we wanted to click pics with the guests. They were continuing their candid competition from the morning 11. There was a nice dinner spread organized, but all we could manage to get was pics of the exact moment when someone was putting food into their mouth. We could use those pics as evidence in court to prove that the guest was indeed eating a particular dish 12. I did tell the photographer to take pics of guests who were requesting for pics without the couple but with my folks and guests. Their sense of loyalty prevented them from clicking pics of people who would not be paying them. 13. This doesn't mean guests were not present in the pics. We got side angle shots, back shots, bokeh shots of the couple in side angle. Brilliant memories I must say. 14. I agree I don't have a great smile, but as a photographer I would atleast expect them to review the photo clicked and ask me to smile a little more since these are memories. They did look at the image after clicking just to check if it blurred out or not. Seeing some of the pics later looks as if I had committed a crime and my wedding was my alibi. I look so damn serious in it. All they had to do was to tell me that I need to smile a little more. Guess that was too much to ask for. 15. Usual protocol when ending something is to inform that they are packing up. I had still had some guests who showed up a little late. After searching for a while saw these guys packing up (on of them had left as well) . When I requested them to click a pic, the expression I got was as if I had asked him his ancestral property. 16. When I had mentioned these to Shishir, he was not apologetic even one bit, but instead said that I had requested for candid. And that's what was clicked. 17. I later got two links, one processed and one not processed. Absolutely not difference. 18. A had very well communicated that the dinner party place could be low on lighting, and asked if more lighting needs to be arranged. I was assured that need not be the case as that would be taken care of during the editing. At the dinner party, these guys made an elderly couple walk some distance before clicking their pic. Reason, lighting was not good!!!. I was travelling hence couldn't write this earlier. Another thing that puzzles is me how have these guys got a 4.9 rating when people have given them a one star rating as well. WedMeGood please check that. If you have managed to get a 5star rating work from these guys please share that information here so that it would help others. Honestly its like finding a needle in a haystack, to find one good picture to frame. I am taking time and making an effort to write this detailed review because I am very very disappointed and do not wish anyone else's happy moments be just in their head even after spending so much.

Great to see the review without even discussing the problem. So lets start with your point mentioned here. - The only service you asked for was candid photography and obviously for one service you can't expect full team to be present as I myself is more into videos & this thing was properly communicated with you during the meeting only. - We have photos to prove that all rituals were captured and another thing about kashiyatra so your wedding was in temple and simultaneously three weddings were going on that same place so there was a bit confusion as we all know that kashiyatra don't happen inside mantapa, that too we dint miss the kashiyatra once it was informed, All the photos are there to prove my point. - We never knew this point before your review that Bride and groom's pictures should be in 1:1 ratio. Obviously for us its about clicking the moments not counting 1:1 ratio. So where there will be flow of emotion we will click that. - As you agreed you don't have a great smile but still my photographers managed to get 100+ photos of you literally LAUGHING & we have pix to prove this point. - We followed the usual protocol of informing before packing but dint know that we have to inform that to everyone present at the venue & after packing all the stuffs when you requested for one photo my photographers unpacked the whole setup and clicked that and again like with every point mentioned above we have photos to prove that, - So I can post the before and after pics to let the people decide whether there was difference in edited and raw photos or not. - During your reception party we photographers are human not god so we cant be omnipresent. Obviously when there is a walking get together kind of party 2 guys can be at 2 places only and at that time one guy was always present with couple that is the basic thing, but you have problem with that too. - With all due respect, We have all the LAUGHING photos of yours to prove our point that you dint committed a crime and your wedding was not your alibi. Thanks a lot for taking your time and writing the review. Our 4.9 star rating on almost all the portals are because of the clients who are happy with our work.. Just a request to all the clients who have read this review and Wedmegood vendor support team also to please check the photos of this wedding before coming to any conclusion because anyone can write that my people were rude and were not present but only proof what we can have is photos whether they are there or not so please before coming to conclusion do meet us & check the photos of Mr. Deepak's wedding. That way it will be proved that this review has how much truth in it.
