Google reviewers rate PTaufiq Photography 4.9 out of 5 based on 88 reviews, with the owner responding to 10 percent of them. Clients frequently praise the team's professionalism, creativity, and ability to make camera-shy subjects feel comfortable during destination and multi-event weddings. Recurring themes include punctuality, detailed planning assistance, and high-quality same-day edits. However, low-star reviews highlight a pattern of poor communication, specifically citing unresponsive inquiries regarding pricing and disputes over contract terms and deposit refunds.

We absolutely struck gold with PTaufiq’s Mexico team! We first met them during our site visit to Cancun and the rest is history. We clicked right away and spent the whole day shooting our engagement pictures around Isla Mujeres. From that moment, we knew there was no one better who could capture our wedding pictures…

The same-day edit alone had us in tears. It captured the emotion, the energy, and the little moments exactly as we felt them. If that's just a preview, we can't wait to see the full gallery!

A huge thank you to Avinassh and the entire PTaufiq Photography & Videography team for capturing some of the most unforgettable moments of our lives!
From our surprise proposal shoot with the iconic Pyramids of Egypt to our incredible shoot in Petra, Jordan, the entire experience was nothing short of amazing. The team’s creativity, professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication truly exceeded our expectations.
Avinassh and the PTaufiq team went above and beyond to make sure every moment was captured beautifully. From helping us with poses and finding the perfect angles to making us feel comfortable in front of the camera, they made the entire experience fun, effortless, and memorable.
Planning shoots across multiple countries, especially for a once-in-a-lifetime proposal, is no easy task, but they made everything come together seamlessly.
These weren’t just photos and videos — they were memories we’ll cherish for the rest of our lives.
If you’re looking for a talented, passionate, and reliable photography and videography team for your wedding, proposal, or destination shoot, I highly recommend Avinassh and the PTaufiq team!
Thank you again for being part of such an important chapter in our lives!

We truly cannot say enough amazing things about Pervez. He went above and beyond in every way to make our wedding experience so seamless, comfortable, and special. From the very beginning, he took the time to understand our vision and brought so much creativity and thoughtfulness into making it come to life.
My husband and I are both camera shy, but Pervez made the entire process feel so natural. He guided us through every moment, made us feel comfortable, and captured the most beautiful, authentic photos of us. The pictures turned out breathtaking, and we will cherish them forever.
But what made our experience with Pervez truly unforgettable was the same day edit he created. My mom passed away just a few months before our wedding, and having her presence felt throughout the wedding weekend meant more to me than I could ever put into words. Pervez found such creative, beautiful, and meaningful ways to include her in our ceremony and incorporated her into the same day edit in a way that completely captured the emotions of the day. There wasn’t a dry eye in the room. And even a month later the first thing I hear from my friends and family is “oh we loved your photographer, he felt so much like family because he went the extra mile to build connections with everyone”.
Pervez is not only incredibly talented and creative, but genuinely one of the best humans we have had the privilege of meeting. He put so much heart into our wedding and made us feel cared for every step of the way. We feel incredibly lucky that he was the one who captured such an important chapter of our lives.
If you are looking for a photographer who will do more than just take beautiful pictures, someone who will truly care about your story and make your moments feel unforgettable, Pervez is your person. 🤍
Thank you, Pervez, for giving us memories we will treasure for a lifetime. We are so incredibly grateful for you. ❤️

I attended my cousin's wedding where PTaufiq was doing the photography and this was hands down the best media I've seen from all the weddings I have been to. Pervez was super professional and extremely efficient while also being extremely friendly with all the guests. He set a major focus on making sure the media was top tier strategically through decoration changes, poses, photo ideas, drone shots, music, and everything you would see in a video. That being said, he cleanly edited and posted media on the associated instagram account for the wedding showing all the different parts....which is a task in and of itself for an Indian wedding.
Would 10000% recommend PTaufiq to anyone searching for professional, beautiful, and thoughtful media.

We just returned from my son’s wedding in Tuscany, Italy, and I am honestly at a loss for words to describe how grateful we are that we chose the PTAUFIQ team to capture one of the most important events of our lives. The memories they created for us will be treasured for generations.
From the very first conversation with Pervez, we knew we were in the best hands. He is the true definition of professionalism. Every promise he made, he delivered on, and then exceeded our expectations. His integrity, attention to detail, and passion for his work are evident in everything he does.
Although we had an excellent wedding planner, once the PTAUFIQ team, led by Avinassh, took over the photography and videography schedule, we simply trusted their process. All we had to do was be ready when they asked, follow their guidance on where to stand and how to pose, and then watch them work their magic. They made everything feel effortless.
Every photograph is absolutely breathtaking, and every video looks like it belongs in a feature film. The videography team is second to none. From the incredible drone footage to the smoke bombs, fireworks, and every Bollywood dance performance, they didn’t miss a single detail. They captured every emotion, every celebration, and every unforgettable moment with cinematic perfection.
What truly sets this team apart is how they make you feel. They never felt like vendors. From the moment they arrived, they became part of our family. Their warmth, patience, and positive energy made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera, and that made all the difference.
The same-day edit shown during our reception left everyone speechless. It beautifully combined the couple’s pre-wedding shoot with highlights from the welcome party, Haldi ceremony, and wedding day itself. To produce something that incredible in such a short amount of time is simply remarkable.
As anyone who has planned a wedding knows, the bride, groom, and both families spend so much time making sure every guest is taken care of and every detail goes according to plan that they hardly get a chance to fully experience the celebration themselves. It wasn’t until we received the photos and videos that we truly got to enjoy our son’s wedding. Through their work, we can relive those moments over and over again, and it genuinely feels like we are back in Tuscany celebrating all over again.
If I could give the PTAUFIQ team 10 out of 5 stars, I absolutely would. They are genuinely 10 Star and an A++++++.Team.
My only hesitation in writing this review is that once everyone discovers just how extraordinary Pervez, Avinassh, and their entire team are, they may become impossible to book! We still have several more weddings in our family over the next few years, and we already know exactly who we want capturing those memories.
I have seen the work of many photography and videography teams over the years, but I have never experienced the level of artistry, storytelling, and attention to detail that the PTAUFIQ team delivers. Their work is simply on another level.
I could continue writing about them for pages, but I will end with this: We feel incredibly fortunate and blessed that they were part of our family’s celebration. Their talent is so exceptional that I honestly would not be surprised if one day they are creating films for major motion pictures. Until then, anyone lucky enough to have them capture their wedding should consider themselves truly fortunate.
Thank you, Pervez, Avinassh Tallurii, Jonathan, Amit, Victor, Joelyn, Cristel, and the entire PTAUFIQ support team for giving our family a gift that will last a lifetime.

We cannot recommend P. Taufiq Photography enough, especially Pervez and Nicole! They captured our entire five-event Indian wedding weekend, and from start to finish, they were an absolute dream to work with.
My husband and I aren't naturally comfortable in front of the camera, but they made us feel so relaxed, confident, and genuinely ourselves. They gave us just the right amount of direction while also making the entire experience so much fun. They kept us laughing, smiling, and enjoying every moment, which made such a difference during a busy wedding weekend.
Not only were they amazing to work with, but the photos and videos they captured are absolutely incredible. We were blown away by the creative shots they came up with, and every sneak peek has been beyond anything we could have imagined.
If you're looking for a photo and video team that is incredibly talented, professional, creative, and makes you feel completely at ease, P. Taufiq Photography is the team to book. We're so grateful to Pervez, Nicole, and the entire team for capturing memories we'll cherish forever!
We wanted to take a moment to share how incredible Pervez’s team was throughout our wedding weekend in Malaga/Marbella Spain. Jose Casablancas, Antonio Bravo, Jonathan Pío Ano, and Mally Rios were truly exceptional - not just in their talent, but in the way they worked.
They captured every moment so beautifully and so naturally, without ever needing direction. They blended into the flow of the events, anticipated moments before they happened, and made everyone feel comfortable and at ease. Their energy, professionalism, and eye for detail were unmatched.
It’s rare to find a team that is both creatively brilliant and so easy to work with. We felt completely taken care of from start to finish, and we’re genuinely grateful for the memories they’ve preserved for us.
They made our experience unforgettable.
Pervez and Nicole were honestly one of the best parts of our wedding week in Arizona. From the second they arrived, they brought such an amazing energy and made the entire experience feel natural and comfortable. Me and my wife are not the most camera-savvy people at all, honestly, I usually hate taking pictures and get awkward in front of a camera but Pervez made everything feel effortless. He knew exactly how to make us relax, laugh, and feel confident, and he guided us into poses that actually felt natural instead of forced.
What really stood out to us was how real everything felt. They didn’t just show up and record moments, they truly became part of the celebration. Pervez and Nicole got so comfortable with our families and friends that people genuinely felt like they were around family, not vendors. Because of that, they captured emotions and moments that were authentic, candid, and full of life instead of staged or fake.
So many of our guests came up to us throughout the week talking about how amazing the photo/video team was and how much they loved their energy. They engaged with everyone, kept the vibes high, and somehow managed to be everywhere at the right moment without ever making things feel intrusive.
By the end of the wedding, it honestly felt like we had gained friends for life. We’ll always remember not only the incredible work they did, but also the memories and friendship we built along the way. Could not recommend Pervez, Nicole, and their team enough.
We had an incredible experience with the Ptaufiq Mexico photo and video team. From the moment they arrived, they were warm, professional, and brought such a calm and positive energy to the entire day. Being in front of cameras for hours can feel intimidating, but they immediately made both my husband and me feel comfortable and confident.
What really sets this team apart is their level of skill and attention to detail. They didn’t just take photos—they actively guided us throughout the day to make sure every shot looked natural and beautiful. They would gently suggest poses, positioning, and small movements that would translate perfectly on camera. Their direction never felt forced and helped us relax so the moments felt authentic.
You can tell the team is extremely experienced. They worked seamlessly together, stayed organized, and always seemed to anticipate the moments that mattered most. It was clear they weren’t just documenting the day—they were intentionally capturing images that truly represent us as a couple and the emotions of the moment.
Their professionalism, creativity, and friendly approach made a huge difference in our overall experience. We’re so grateful to the Ptaufiq Mexico team for capturing these memories so thoughtfully. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a highly skilled photo and video team that genuinely cares about the couples they work with.
Loved working with Oscar, Antonio, Roberto, Jose (the team calls him Iguana for a reason🤣), Mally, and Julio~
