You’re Here!
 
We're
Siddhu Soma,
Bhargavi Ambati !
A husband-and-wife duo, storytellers, and the creative
force behind Vows by Siddhu Soma, a luxury wedding
photography and cinematography studio based in Hyderabad, India
 
Our journey began 13 years ago—three years of dating (one of those secretly living together!), followed by 10 years of marriage and now, raising our wonderful 06-old son.
Over the years, we’ve come to realize that weddings aren’t just about a single day—they’re about love, legacy, and the generations that follow.
Since 2009, I’ve been filling memory cards with moments that hold a special place in our hearts—whether captured in India,USA, Dubai, Bali, Italy, Thailand, or other luxury wedding destinations.
With 15+ years in the industry and over 1000+ weddings across diverse cultures and traditions, we’ve seen firsthand how powerful a single photograph can be.
Before founding Vows by Siddhu Soma, I (Siddhu) worked with some of the industry’s most renowned wedding photography brands, refining my craft, storytelling approach, and deep understanding of weddings.
In 2017, I started Vows by Siddhu Soma, and a year later, my partner Bhargavi joined me in this journey. In just seven years, under our own brand, we’ve personally captured 245+ weddings, curating visual legacies for couples who seek timeless, editorial, and emotionally rich wedding photography.
This journey has only strengthened our belief: Wedding photography is an investment in love—it’s about preserving emotions, fleeting moments, and raw connections that will live on for generations.
WE STRONGLY SUPPORT MARRIAGE EQUALITY.

our
Journey
Shaping the Way We Capture Love
Now, after 10 years of marriage and raising our son, we see our wedding memories differently. Watching him flip through albums, trying to grasp the emotions in every frame, reminds us why we do this—a wedding isn’t just for the couple; it’s a story that connects generations.
Before we were storytellers, we were a love story ourselves. Falling in love, planning our wedding, and saying our own vows made us realize—a wedding isn’t just a day; it’s the beginning of a legacy. The emotions, the fleeting moments, the people—everything about that day becomes a part of your story, meant to be cherished for generations.
When we started Vows by Siddhu Soma, we knew we wanted to create something more than just wedding photography. We wanted to capture what it truly feels like to be in love—to hold onto a fleeting moment forever. Over the years, we’ve had the privilege of documenting love stories that are as unique as the people in them.
This perspective has shaped our philosophy. We blend the elegance of editorial artistry with the raw intimacy of documentary storytelling, ensuring that your wedding day feels just as real decades later as it did in that moment. Because long after the music fades and the lights dim, your photographs will remain—a timeless heirloom, a love story preserved for the generations that follow.
-Love
Siddhu & Bhargavi.
Our
Philosophy
Real
Love,
Artfully Told
We believe that the most powerful photographs are the ones that make you feel. A wedding isn’t just about grand moments—it’s about the unspoken emotions, the fleeting glances, the touch of a hand that says everything words cannot.
Our approach is simple: we don’t stage love, we document it. With a seamless blend of editorial elegance and documentary storytelling, we ensure that every frame reflects not just how your wedding looked, but how it felt.
We chase real emotions over forced perfection, depth over trends, and timeless over trendy. Because years from now, when you look back, we want you to not just see your wedding—but relive it, feel it, and cherish it all over again.
Our
Vision
Timeless. Honest. Unscripted.
One day, your great-grandchildren will turn the pages of your wedding album and feel the love that started it all.
We don’t just capture weddings—we create timeless heirlooms. Through a seamless blend of luxury wedding photography, editorial elegance, and raw emotions, we preserve love stories that transcend generations. Every stolen glance, joyful tear, and heartfelt embrace is artfully documented, ensuring that while you immerse in your big day, your legacy is captured forever.
Because photography isn’t just about preserving moments—it’s about preserving emotions, stories, and history. Long after the vows have been spoken, the music has faded, and the flowers have wilted, your wedding photographs will remain—telling the story of your love, exactly as it was, for generations to come.

MEET THE FOUNDERS
 
SIDDHU SOMA
Founder & Lead Photographer
My journey with photography started in college—not in a classroom, but with a camera in hand, taking pictures of my crush (who, unfortunately, never noticed my photography skills :P).
What began as a teenage hobby quickly turned into a lifelong passion.
By the time I was in +2 (Intermediate), I was already shooting events, fascinated by how a single frame could hold so much emotion. That passion led me to pursue a Master’s in Visual Communication, where I refined my craft and learned how to turn fleeting moments into timeless stories.
Today, I am not just a wedding photographer and filmmaker—I am an educator and mentor, committed to elevating the wedding photography industry. Through training, and mentorship, I strive to make the wedding photography space more creative, professional, and fulfilling for aspiring artists.
But at my core, I’m still that same guy who gets excited about picking up a camera. I love traveling, cycling, and I firmly believe that Hyderabad’s Haleem deserves a spot in every wedding menu!
Weddings are more than just events; they are legacies in the making. Every time I pick up my camera, I remind myself that I’m not just capturing a moment—I’m preserving emotions, connections, and the essence of a love story that will live far beyond our time.
Vows by Siddhu Soma was born from this vision: to create timeless heirlooms that not only document a wedding day but make future generations feel the love that started it all.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
While I may not be behind the camera, my role at Vows by Siddhu Soma is deeply woven into every couple’s experience. From the first consultation to the final delivery, I ensure that every detail is seamless—coordinating between our creative team and our couples, making sure that the emotions we capture translate into timeless memories.
With a Master’s in Architecture, I’ve always had an eye for design, styling, and aesthetics. But my heart was drawn beyond structures—I found myself captivated by people, emotions, and the beauty of celebrations. That passion led me to leave architecture behind and step into the world of weddings, where I discovered my true calling: crafting an experience that makes our couples feel valued, celebrated, and at ease amidst all the chaos.
Over the years, I’ve realized that our work is not just about photography and filmmaking; it’s about relationships. Many of our clients start as couples we document and end up as lifelong friends. I’ve had grooms joke about making me their ‘wedding day bodyguard’ and brides tell me I was their calm amidst the chaos. One groom even insisted I walk alongside him during his baraat because, by then, we had become like family. This is what Vows is about—creating an experience that feels personal, genuine, and beyond just service.
Beyond weddings, my world is filled with styling, fitness, and movement. I balance intense workouts, weekend animal flow training, and recently, I’ve embraced Kathak dance—which, in its own way, is a celebration of storytelling through movement.
At Vows by Siddhu Soma, we believe every couple’s story deserves to be told with care, artistry, and heart. If our work allows you to relive your wedding day exactly as it felt, then we’ve done what we set out to do
