We Speak the Language of Celebration

Thuy and Neal Howland - Indian Wedding Photographer and Cinematographer

South Asian weddings are a beautiful whirlwind of color, chaos, and deep-rooted tradition. From the high energy of the Sangeet to the emotional Vidai, you need a team that anticipates the moments before they happen.

For the past 10 years, we’ve been documenting South Asian legacies across Newport Mansions, Boston’s historic hotels, and the coastal estates of New England.

We are Thuy & Neal. We don't just capture weddings; we document legacies, focused on capturing South Asian weddings for over 10 years. We understand the pacing of a three-day celebration and the importance of capturing both the grand cinematic moments and the quiet, fleeting glances between families.

Cultural Intuition

Whether it’s a Hindu, Sikh, or Muslim celebration, we know where to stand. We know the Baraat moves fast, the Mandap is sacred, and family portraits are non-negotiable.

Editorial & Documentary Style

We blend the polished, high-fashion look of editorial photography with the raw, candid emotion of documentary storytelling. You look like royalty, but you feel like yourself.

Kind words from past couples

“A Life-Changing Experience with Thuy and Neal – True Artists Behind the Lens. We are beyond grateful to Thuy and Neal for their incredible artistry and professionalism during our wedding. From the very first meeting to the delivery of the final photos, working with them was an absolute dream. They didn’t just take pictures; they captured emotions, moments, and memories in a way that words can’t fully describe.”

—R&J

They are such a dynamic duo - both exceptionally talented, kind hearted, passionate about their work, and super fun to work with. Going into this, we didn't realize how much time we'd spend with our photo/video team - they were literally with us at all times capturing every single moment - so we were grateful that we had such a fun, passionate team alongside us. But more than that, they truly felt like family and kept us calm throughout the weekend when our nerves were all over the place.”

—S&C

“Fern and Feather were one of the best vendors of the wedding and a huge, huge part of our wedding. The quality of the photos were extremely high-quality as well, and someone we would recommend to anyone at all. In addition, they were both extremely pleasant to work with. Couples forget about how much time they spend with their photographers, and Neal and Thuy are both kind hearted and great people to be around.”

The Multi-Day Experience.

We know that a South Asian wedding isn't just an 8-hour day. It is a multi-day journey of ritual and celebration.

Thuy & Neal Together: When you book us for both photo and video, you get the full "Fern & Feather" experience. We communicate without speaking, anticipate the big moments together, and ensure your story is told with one consistent voice.

The Multi-Day Experience: Comprehensive coverage options for the Sangeet, Mehndi, Haldi, and Wedding/Reception so no part of the story is missed.

Quick Turnaround Teasers: We deliver sneak peeks shortly after the wedding, allowing you to share the magic while the excitement is still high.
