    My Wedding Album is one of my most cherished possessions and my family and all my friends love it. Surinder Singh captured the emotion and grandeur of our wedding that we will adore for the rest of our lives. He went out of his way to make us feel relaxed and comfortable on our special day. We absolutely love CandleLight Studio and will hire them again for our anniversary!

    Surinder Singh and his team at CandleLight Studio are incredible easy to work with. They really captured every significant moment, the love and fun that everyone had on our wedding day. They are very prompt in answering questions (by phone, emails and text messages). Our photos are better than we could imagine. We highly recommend CandleLight Studio. Victoria and Tom

The cinematic style wedding video highlights is a lasting memory of our very special day.

    We have only fabulous things to say about CandleLight Studio. We hired Surinder Singh to photograph our wedding and are thrilled how the pictures came out. He managed to capture all the special moments we hoped to remember. Surinder Singh was also extremely helpful during the planning stages. He is very responsive communicating regularly through email, text messages and phone calls.
    Surinder, thank you so much for the fabulous pictures!

    Terrible photographer definitely I would not recommend Surinder Singh to anyone I know. The main reason we hired him because he was in NY and did Indian weddings. So we figured he would know how to take some beautiful detail shots. For example, close up shots of the beautiful expensive jewelry and all the detail henna work on the bride. He did not take any close up shots of either the bride, groom or the decorations.

    Surinder Singh is always defensive when we said the photos were bad, he said you should have told me how you wanted to take the pictures. We are not photographers and we couldn't just leave the stage and show him how to take pictures. He is Indian and we figured he would know how to take better shots of a traditional Indian wedding.

    We didn't realize the photos were bad until our friends and relatives showed us their wedding pictures. We were sadly disappointed it looked like just some average photos.
    The amount he charged us was adequate since there was traveling needed to made to upstate NY. We did not appreciate when he wanted to charge us shipping fee for sending the Album just because he moved to Texas. We live in NJ and was willing to pick up the item in NYC.

    what a disastrous service does candlelight studio provides. I had terrible experience. I wish I did a better search for the review of candlelight studio. They are UN-educated folks who do not know how to talk to a customer. No professionalism at all. You will be sorry you hired candlelight studio. Do not ruin your precious day.

    Wish I knew about this website and read reviews before giving business to this person.
    If you want to ruin your precious moment then give business to candlelight studio.

    Would not recommend Candlelightstudio.com for any photography. The guy left before the event was over. We had hired in hope of the professional service it portrays on the website. No professionalism at all, not providing good service

    Surinder Singh is the absolute worst photographer/videographer in the world. A blind man with a broken camera can shoot a better video. the wedding video he sent me was not even in order. It was random clips with red screens in between the video. He asked me for songs and names of relatives but when I tried talking to him, he claims I paid for an unedited video. Even if it was an unedited video, it should at least be in order. He stops replying back when you try to pint out the right thing. If you want to see the video he sent me, email me at hmir27@gmail.com
