BITSian Weddings
Being a BITSian venture, KnotsbyAMP has had the privilege of covering a lot of BITSian weddings. Alumni of BITS Pilani university are called BITSians. The first campus was established in 1964 by G.D Birla, although the first foundation in form of a intermediate college way back in 1964. Today with more than 1.6 lakhs alumni and 5 campuses spread across the world, it has become a global force with BITSians as part of every major organisation.
KnotsbyAMP, a pioneering company in wedding photography and filmmaking was founded by BITS Alumni, Anupam Maurya in 2014 and since then it has evolved to be the first choice of BITSian couples getting married from around the world. BITSian weddings have taken us all around the world and every year we cover 5-10 BITSian weddings. We present you some of the weddings of BITS Pilani alumni we have covered over the years.
Amsterdam is known for its beautiful canals, quirky architecture, and lively nightlife. Most Couples opt for Pre Wedding Shoots but Mrinal and Puja chose the alternate route and decided on a photo shoot after the wedding festivities.
Jodhpur, a stunning town in Rajasthan which I call home, is full of old world charm and regality. We fell in love with The Bal Samand Lake Palaceand it’s sprawling lawns, incredible heritage and the warm Rajasthani hospitality.
Telugu Weddings in Hyderabad are known for being fun, colourful, and full of grandeur and this wedding at Celebrity Resorts was just that. Telugu Weddings usually go on for a few days as they are packed with many rituals and events.
Varun & Sanne’s telugu wedding celebrations were spread across 3 days in various locations all over Hyderabad. South Indian weddings always tend to give the best pictures perhaps because they are filled with color, gorgeous bridal wear, and tons of laughter and love!
Mugdhaa and Devam were destined to meet. They were working in the same company, but never came across each other. It was in the lockdown last year, they met through an arranged marriage match, set up by their parents.
Bengali Weddings are a vibrant affair and involve many unique rituals that are followed very passionately and this sets it apart from other regions in the country.

Our team captured the beautiful wedding of Danish & Mansi at Bhanwar Singh Palace in Pushkar. The celebrations spanned over 2 days with Haldi, Mehandi, Sangeet and finally a night wedding.
Love happens when it’s meant to be, persevering through distance or time. So was it for Saumya, a fiercely independent girl who’s lived life on her own terms and Anuranjan, fondly and lovingly called Anu, a kind-hearted doctor based in Manchester.
Devyani & Siva’s wedding in the hills of Mussorie at JW Mariott was a beautiful celebration of their love. From meeting first time at Mastercard office in US and taking a leap of faith for love, their journey has been nothing short of magical.
We got opportunity to cover beautiful wedding at Ganjam Mandapa in Bangalore. They rightly say there is beauty in simplicity & we should never overlook the power of simplicity. We literally understood this when we reached wedding venue in Bangalore.
Nomchin & Udbhav, both Bitsians, based in USA, planned their wedding at Alwar Baghin Alwar, which happens to be Nomchin’s hometown. Nomchin is a Punjabi and Udbhav is a South Indian.
A Punjabi Wedding hardly needs an introduction. So we will keep it short here.
This wedding season we were lucky to shoot 3 beautiful cross border weddings. Here goes the 1st one of the lot. Wedding story of Sid & Dori. Our Indian groom & his german bride are big time parkour enthusiasts and that’s how their love story started.
It is not everyday that you cover an Olympian’s wedding. We had the good fortune of covering Neha Aggarwal’swedding, an Olympian who represented India in Table Tennis in Beijing Olympics at the age of 18 in 2008.
Here is our story, in our own words! 🙂

Marathi weddings are the most simplest, yet filled with lots of colours and fun rituals spicing up the entire event. One of the very first weddings we shot this year was Amit and Smita’s wedding held at Tip Top Plaza, Thane.
At AMP, we have shot variety of weddings. But still this one is a first. Govindam and Elizabeth’s wedding in Mumbai is something which breaks all conventions and stereotypes. This is the first time we witnessed an intimate inter-religious wedding which took place at home. Breaking the shackles of conventions truly!
2017 has been most generous to us, we met & captured some of the amazing people, Krishna & Akanksha happened to be one of them. Krishna who was my batchmate from BITS Pilani is an easy going & chilled out person who fell for Akanksha’s charm.

Marriages are made in heaven; they say but some marriages also happen in one! There can’t be a better heaven than a palace in Rajasthan to get married. Entertainment Plaza in Jaipur was lit up to celebrate Harshit and Khushboo’s glorious wedding day.
Puri a beautiful town in Odisha, endowed with a rich heritage & breezy sand beaches was one of the most beautiful locations we had seen for a wedding. The bride & groom dazzled at their lavish Marwari wedding at Sterling Resorts, Puri.
What makes every photograph best in itself, is the moment it captures now and the memories it builds for later. A picture hides the stories lived by many eyes into one. Aalekh & Shraddha’s wedding is woven into one by these pictures that say a hundred words of vows, love, joy and determination.
