Indian weddings are much more than a celebration. It is the coming together of families, cultures, and histories that unfold across multiple events with each carrying its own significance and rhythm. We understand the traditions that matter to your families, collaborate around multi-day timelines,
anticipate important ceremonial moments, and give you thoughtful direction without pulling
you away from the celebration
The result is an experience that feels calm, thoughtful, and seamless. One that honors where you come from while reflecting who you are today. So your family can celebrate the legacy they’ve built, and you can recognize the person you’re becoming.
ROOTED IN CULTURE.
GUIDED BY STORY.
UNIQUELY YOURS.
We are Niraj and Piya, the husband and wife duo and founders of Niya Studios, a boutique wedding photography team in Chicago.
As second-generation Indian Americans, we have an appreciation for the traditions, people, and stories that connect us to our heritage. At the same time, modern culture has shaped our own values, experiences, and the way we see the world. This perspective shapes the way we photograph weddings. We believe the most meaningful celebrations are not about choosing between tradition and individuality. They are about bringing the two together in a way that feels authentic to you.
CULTURAL PERSPECTIVE.
CONTEMPORARY VISION.
UNDENIABLY US.

Celebration
The wedding weekend is finally here and we get to create what we envisioned. It's time for you to celebrate with family and friends while we create unforgetable memories
Collaboration
After our initial meeting, we will setup recurring meetings up unti the wedding weekend. This allows us to review and refine and mood and value boards as well as ensure all the details leading up to the wedding weekend are set
Vision
The first step in your experience is to create your mood and value board. The mood board is focused on aesthetics while the value board tells us what's important for us to capture during the wedding weekend. Both work together in helping us build an intentional vision.
