Renowned Indian wedding photographer Joseph Radhik revealed that he took a six-month break after covering the extravagant wedding celebrations of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant. Speaking at the India Today Conclave 2025, Radhik shared that the sheer scale of the event made it difficult for him to shoot any other wedding immediately afterward.
A Wedding Like No Other
The Ambani wedding, held in July 2024, was a lavish affair with multiple celebrations. It began with the Hastakshar ceremony in Jamnagar, Gujarat, followed by a luxury cruise across Italy and the South of France. Celebrities from around the world attended, making it one of the grandest weddings ever captured.
Exclusive Unseen Photos
Although millions saw glimpses of the wedding through social media, Radhik revealed that a set of 100 exclusive photos was privately delivered to the Ambani family, showcasing heartfelt moments beyond the glitz. Another set of images was shared with an international magazine, offering a completely different perspective on the wedding.
Global Recognition
Radhik was thrilled to see his work gaining international attention. While speaking at a wedding photography conference in Crete, Greece, he was amazed to learn that people as far as Romania knew about the Ambani family due to the wedding coverage. He described it as a childhood dream come true—having his photographs recognized worldwide.
The Man Behind Iconic Celebrity Weddings
Apart from the Ambani wedding, Joseph Radhik has captured several high-profile celebrity weddings, including:
- Virat Kohli & Anushka Sharma
- Katrina Kaif & Vicky Kaushal
- Nayanthara & Vignesh Shivan
- Aditi Rao Hydari & Siddharth
His work continues to set benchmarks in luxury wedding photography, making him one of the most sought-after photographers in the industry.
