Wedding Photographer and Videographer in White Plains, NY
Hotel ballrooms, banquet halls and family celebrations in White Plains and central Westchester, covered by our photo and film team.
White Plains is the county seat of Westchester and its busiest downtown, with hotels, ballrooms and banquet halls a short drive from Scarsdale, Harrison and Purchase. It is a practical choice for large weddings and for families with guests flying in, and it is where many central Westchester celebrations come together. We photograph and film weddings and events here from our studio in New York.
Ballroom and hotel weddings
Hotel ballrooms suit big guest lists and long nights, and they bring their own rhythm: a cocktail hour in one room while the main room is turned, a grand entrance, a timed dinner service and a packed dance floor. We work with your planner and the banquet manager so that coverage follows that rhythm, and we photograph the room before the doors open, when the flowers, the stage and the table settings are untouched. Indoor light in ballrooms varies a lot, so we bring our own lighting and set it up before the first entrance.
Multi-day celebrations
A White Plains hotel often hosts more than one event of a wedding weekend: a Sangeet in one ballroom on Friday, the ceremony and reception on Saturday and a brunch on Sunday. Staying in one building helps the team move quickly between getting-ready rooms and events. Where a Haldi or Mehndi happens at a family home nearby, we plan the travel between them.
Portraits nearby
For portraits outside the hotel, central Westchester has parks, lakes and open lawns within a short drive, including the grand plaza below the Kensico Dam in Valhalla. We plan a portrait stop into your timeline if you want one, or keep portraits on site if the day is tight.
Events as well as weddings
White Plains is also a center for corporate events, galas and milestone birthdays. See event photography for how we cover them.

What Couples Say About Working With Jay’s Team
In their own words on Google: four-day weddings, Diwali parties, anniversaries and more.

From start to finish, Jay and his entire team made our wedding experience effortless, joyful, and incredibly special. We had a four-day wedding celebration with a mix of Indian and American events, and somehow they captured everything, every emotion, every ritual, every candid moment, without ever feeling intrusive or stressful. Jay is not only an insanely talented photographer, but also a calm, organized, and reassuring presence. His team kept everything running smoothly, helped guide us when needed, and truly understood the flow and importance of both cultures. From Punjabi ceremonies to the American wedding events, they knew exactly what moments mattered and how to document them beautifully. What stood out most was how easy they made the entire process. During a long, multi-day wedding, that peace of mind is priceless. If you are looking for a photography team that is professional, culturally fluent, incredibly hardworking, and genuinely invested in your experience, I cannot recommend Verma Photography enough. We would choose them again in a heartbeat and recommend them to anyone and everyone.

When you work with Verma Photography, you don't just get amazing photos and videos to remember your events by. You also have a lot of fun and feel valued as a client. We hired Verma Photography for our destination wedding and we had a wonderful time working with them. They all were kind and professional, they kept us smiling and laughing throughout the whole weekend, they were respectful of our time and our schedule, and they interacted very well with our guests and vendors. They understand that it isn't just about the photos and videos, but also being able to read the clients' needs, energy, comfort level, and vision. Leading up to our wedding, they took the time to understand what our vision was. They showed great enthusiasm and professionalism from start to finish. They were always prepared and on time, and they handled challenges very well. The entire Verma Photography team works really hard while striving to give the best results. We enjoyed working with them, we loved the photos and videos they delivered, and we know we'll be looking to hire them again in the future. The entire experience that we had working with Verma Photography exceeded our expectations and we highly recommend them for any of your photo and video needs!
