Commissions

We refer to our work as Commissions rather than packages because we believe every wedding is a unique historical record that requires a dedicated, singular focus. We don't just 'provide a service'; we fulfill a commitment to your family's legacy. Our titles are a tribute to the pioneers of Bengali Cinema- directors who taught us how to see the truth in our own stories.

A Note on Authorship

Our pricing reflects how much of the day the founders spend behind the camera — not how much of the work they touch. Whichever commission you choose, Tanjila Munia and Enamur Reza guide the artistic direction, post-production and curation. When the Collective leads on the day, they lead to a brief the founders set, and every frame returns to the founders before it reaches you. We name your lead before you book.

The Wedding Commissions

storytelling | weddings | reception

mukh o mukhos

Abdul Jabbar Khan · 1956

For families who understand that a wedding belongs to more than two people. When the scale of your story needs every perspective in the room — the elders, the house, the hours nobody thought to watch — the entire collective is present.

The Commission
Six photographers, three cinematographers. Both founders, full day. Multi-event documentation, before and after the wedding date as the story requires. Photobook · cloud gallery · mobile gallery app. Four commissions per month.
240,000 – 320,000 BDT

dui duari

Humayun Ahmed · 2000

Two doors — the threshold between one life and the next. For the couple who wants the founders as the primary observers of that crossing: a large unit trained to stay invisible, documenting the transition rather than staging it.

The Commission
120,000 — 7 hours. Four photographers, two cinematographers. Outdoor session and venue. One founder on site throughout. 160,000 — 8 hours, daylong. Both founders on site, working in tandem. Photobook · cloud gallery · mobile gallery app.

We spend so long preparing for the grand milestones that we forget to document the places our stories actually began. A house before it is sold. Parents who have never been photographed properly. Not a smaller wedding — a different thing entirely.

The Commission
30,000 — Photography. 3 hours, one location. 40,000 — Photography and film. 3 hours, one location. Home, holud, courtyard, family.

FAQ

CAN WE SCHEDULE A CONSULTATION BEFORE BOOKING?

Absolutely. We prefer it. Documentation of this depth requires trust. We invite you to a conversation—either in person or via a call—to see if our "humming silence" approach aligns with your family’s vision.

DO WE VISIT THE LOCATION BEFORE THE DAY OF THE SESSION?

Whenever possible, yes. Understanding the light, the corners, and the spatial flow of your venue allows us to work invisibly on the day. If a physical visit isn't feasible, we conduct a thorough virtual walkthrough of the space with you.

HOW MANY HOURS DOES YOUR COMMISSION COVER?

 

Standard commissions cover up to 7-8 hours, which typically encompasses the full rhythm of a wedding. For Sonaton celebrations, we provide a dedicated 15-hour endurance unit to ensure every sacred ritual from dawn till late-night is honored.

DO YOU TRAVEL FOR DESTINATION SESSIONS?

 

We are always ready to travel where the story takes us. Whether it is a heritage home in a quiet district or an international destination, we offer custom travel-inclusive commissions to preserve your archive across borders.
