PhotographersPortrait PhotographersWedding PhotographerAbout Lens by Sanjay
Lens By Sanjay is a Leicester-based photography business specialising in natural, story-driven photography for weddings, pre-wedding events, families, and personal brands. I take a calm, unobtrusive approach, focusing on genuine moments, real connections, and thoughtful details rather than staged or over-posed images.
Services include wedding photography, cultural and family celebrations, lifestyle and personal brand photography, professional headshots, and creative studio portraits. I also work with local small businesses, creating clean, professional imagery that helps them present their brand confidently online. Every project is tailored, clearly priced, and delivered with high-quality edited images and optional printed keepsakes.

Our Story
Lens by Sanjay is built on something simple, moments matter more than we realise at the time.
Over the years, I’ve come to understand how important photographs become. When you lose people you love, or when life changes, it’s the ordinary moments that suddenly mean the most. A smile. A glance. A family member in the background of a photo you didn’t think much of at the time.
That perspective shaped how I approach photography.
I work in a calm, observant way, focusing on genuine interactions rather than forced poses. Whether it’s a pre-wedding celebration, a family gathering, or a portrait session, my aim is to capture images that will still feel meaningful years from now.
Because one day, they won’t just be photos. They’ll be memories you hold onto.

Our Team
Lens by Sanjay is built around a personal approach.
I work closely with every client myself, Sanjay. From planning, photographing, and editing each project with care. I prefer to stay involved in every detail because these moments matter, and they deserve attention.
If additional support is needed for larger weddings or events, I may bring in experienced second shooters who share my calm, unobtrusive style.

Experience
My background in photography began with street photography, where I spent years capturing real life as it unfolded. Working in uncontrolled environments taught me how to observe quietly, anticipate moments, and react instinctively to light and movement.
That foundation shaped the way I work today. It trained my eye to notice subtle interactions, fleeting expressions, and the small details that often become the most meaningful photographs.
As Lens by Sanjay evolved, I carried that candid approach into pre wedding celebrations, family events, portraits, and small business work.
My experience has been built through photographing real people in real moments, continuously refining my craft, and delivering consistent, professional results.

Typical Clients
I work with couples, families, and individuals who value real moments over overly staged photography.
Most of my clients are planning weddings, pre-wedding celebrations, engagement parties, or family events where connection and atmosphere matter just as much as the formalities. They want someone who will quietly capture genuine interactions as they unfold, the laughter, the emotion, the in-between moments.
At the same time, they appreciate having beautifully composed portraits and group shots that feel natural rather than forced. I’m always happy to guide when needed, but I lean towards images that feel honest and unmanufactured.
I also work with individuals and small businesses who want portraits that feel confident and professional without looking stiff or corporate.
The people who book me usually say the same thing:
They want photography that feels like the day actually felt.

Credentials
I use professional Nikon mirrorless equipment with advanced focus tracking to ensure sharp, reliable results in real world conditions. Combined with professional lighting and diffusion, this allows me to maintain natural skin tones and balanced light in any environment, from outdoor ceremonies to evening receptions.
