Thaiba and Omar
Beautiful Nikah Ceremony celebrating Pakistani culture at Quintessential UK venue Ragley Hall
“Omar and I experienced quite the rollercoaster while planning our wedding (doesn’t everyone, right?!). Wedding planning is never easy, and we were pulled in so many directions—from choosing the right catering, venue, and clothes, to finding the perfect photographer. When we look back on our day, all we feel is joy. Our photos are simply magical—they capture our vision, our happiness, and every emotion of that unforgettable day. Zehra’s photos truly show us and our loved ones at our very best, but more than that, her presence, leadership, and compassion during our wedding shone through in everything she did.
Zehra, you are not only an incredibly talented artist, but you’re also kind, understanding, and just so effortlessly cool and calm.
Thank you for being integral in creating a lifelong memory for us. We wish we could do it all again with you.
Thank you,”
Thaiba & Omar
An Elegant Nikah Ceremony at Ragley Hall - Thaiba & Omar
Thaiba and Omar’s Nikah ceremony was a celebration of elegance, love, and timeless style—set against the grand backdrop of Ragley Hall, one of Warwickshire’s most breathtaking historic venues. From the moment I arrived to capture their day, I knew this wedding would be one to remember!
If you’re a fan of The Crown on Netflix, you might have recognised the venue's iconic pink interior. Ragley Hall is steeped in history and grandeur. The couple chose to hold their Nikah outdoors, and we were graced with the most glorious September sunshine—a rare and welcome treat in the UK!
Thaiba’s bridal look was nothing short of exquisite. Her outfit, designed by the renowned Faraz Manan, was inspired by actress Mahira Khan’s own Nikah ensemble—a soft, ethereal blend of pale blue and grey tones adorned with intricate, delicate embroidery. Thaiba’s elegant taste added a whisper of celebrity charm to her big day. She carried herself with such poise and grace—it was a joy to photograph her.
Omar complemented her beautifully in his traditional attire by Souchaj. The couple looked like so graceful together.
A special detail I loved capturing was Thaiba’s Engagement ring - by Hera Jewellers. Thaiba was adamant to have an ethical diamond. One of the most beautiful pieces I have ever seen!
As a wedding photographer, it’s always an honour to witness and document these deeply meaningful ceremonies. Thaiba and Omar’s Nikah was a gentle, intimate, and heartfelt occasion full of love and quiet joy. From the delicate draping of Thaiba’s dupatta to the laughter shared during the Qawwali, every detail reflected warmth and elegance.
We had the opportunity to walk around the gardens for couple portraits, and you all know how much I love my black and whites, freezing moments in time. Don’t Thaiba and Omar look incredible?!
If you’re planning your own Nikah ceremony or wedding and want timeless, graceful imagery to remember your day, I’d love to hear from you.
Thank you, Thaiba and Omar, for trusting me to be part of your beautiful day. May your journey together be just as stunning as your wedding 💗

I love intimate Nikahs with the cutest details, meet bride Rabia with a real eye for detail, and impeccable taste. She decided on having close family and friends and sharing the most gorgeous desserts and canapes by Cheese and Treats.
Having a small ceremony meant Rabia was able to spend time with her guests and she was the cutest with her family, sharing sweet moments with them.

““Literally insane how much power photos have.. can literally relive the entire day of emotions!! Thank you so much Zehra for just being the best, to capture the start of all our wedding celebrations, and all the relief to finally be able to do this after all our changes and rearrangements in lockdown!”
After postponing multiple times, after many tears (Sana burst into tears on a site visit, then I started crying). and many many stories this couple could tell you about their wedding and what they’ve been through, they started their celebrations finallllly after what felt like forever.
Their intimate Nikah ceremony took place in lovely family grounds with their close ones that could attend. There were lots of tears as unfortunately many of Sana’s family couldn’t attend from abroad. Sana already cries a lot so this made her even more sad :(
Even though it was sad many guests couldn’t be there, I loved how intimate and relaxed the day was, with close ones able to spend time together and eat and be happy with a little bit of sunshine, cake and paan. Special guest was Shufi the dog, who Sana has a special place for in her heart, dressed suitably in a lilac dupatta especially for the occasion. My special thanks to Shiza and all the family for making me feel so at home x
