Wedding Photography in Lalitpur (Patan)
Preserving the cultural richness and heritage of your wedding in the City of Fine Arts.
Lalitpur Wedding Photography in Short
Our Kathmandu studio is at Kamalpokhari, a short drive from Patan, and there is no travel charge anywhere in the Kathmandu Valley. Packages run from NPR 75,000 (Bronze Package: 6 hours, 1 professional photographer) to NPR 300,000 (Platinum Package: 2 full days, 3 photographers and 2 cinematographers). For the old squares and courtyards, October to April is the best time: dry weather and soft low sun in the old squares. Book two to three months ahead for peak-season dates, and earlier for multi-day or destination weddings. From courtyard ceremonies to hotel receptions, we plan the shot list around the Newar or Hindu rituals your family follows.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find the best wedding photographer in Lalitpur?
No official body ranks wedding photographers in Lalitpur, so compare evidence rather than claims. Ask each photographer for two or three complete wedding galleries instead of highlights, check that they know the order of your rituals, ask who covers both families’ rituals and what happens if a camera fails, read their reviews on Google rather than only on their own website, and get the team, hours, edited-photo count and delivery dates in writing. Hold us to the same tests: Wedding Story Nepal has photographed 850+ weddings since 2014 and is rated 5.0 from 62 Google reviews.

Yes, we have extensive experience covering traditional Newar weddings in Lalitpur. We understand the significance of rituals like the Supari ceremony, Swayambar, and Honkegu, ensuring that every cultural nuance is respectfully documented.

What are the best venues for a wedding in Lalitpur?
