This candid clown of a guy, also called Mustafa Ilyas professionally, was our photographer for my sister’s wedding 4 years ago. Exactly 4 years later, he became mine. What can I say about him and his work that many haven’t already said? Let’s just say that apart from being our permanent family photographer, he is also now a family friend. All my 4 events, Nikkah, Mehndi, Rukhsati and Valima were captured by him rather beautifully. I fell in love with the gorgeous images captured by him & his team and equally cherish the memories that were made off camera. The teasing, the continuous reminders of "chin down, eyes open and SMILE!" still ring through my ears whenever we click pictures now. You were amazing with me and Shaharyar, Mustafa! Folks, he is young yet, he’s always on time, organized and extremely efficient. He’s gonna make you smile and capture those ridiculously candid moments which you will laugh about later while going through your albums and videos. Kudos boy! You have given us a lifetime of happiness, the evidence of which will last with us forever. Keep it up! God bless you.
3 years back I found Mustafa again on my best friend's Nikah. I went up to him and told him that I do not know who my future groom is, but I do know who the photographer is for my big day.
My Nikah was in a small space with too much crowd, and taking such good candids in such a setup is not something everyone can do.
Amazingly beautiful pictures! Typical Mustafa Ilyas work!
Thumbs up!

Mustafa covered my Mehendi and Shaadi events. He's undoubtedly one of the best in town and we had a great experience with him. His team was highly cooperative, friendly and professional. He gave my pictures and video in time and to my surprise he took the perfect shots and excellent editing. I can't resist watching my video again and again. Thank you for beautifying my memories. I recommend Mustafa for your special events, I can assure you'd get high quality work in reasonable rates. All the best for your future endeavours!
Writing this testimonial for Mustafa gives me great pleasure. I chose him for my Brother's wedding. From reaching the venue before us to lightening up the environment with his humour, it would be an understatement to say that he proved to be the right choice. Everyone in our family loved him and his work. He exhibited exemplary professionalism.
All the best for your future shoots, M!

Mustafa covered one of my wedding events and the experience was just great! The pictures turned out to be amazing. I love the quality of the pictures and the way he managed to capture the candid moments so well. At the same time he is extremely cooperative which made us feel super comfortable dealing with him.
He gave the pictures quite quickly as well so we literally didn’t have to worry about them at all. Highly recommended!!
Having Mustafa on board for my event was indeed the best decision ever. Got my album today, couldn't have asked for anything better. Perfect editing and shots. The best part about Mustafa is that he lightens the atmosphere with his humor making others comfortable around him resulting in beatifully captured pictured. He is SUPER GREAT with the camera, candid shots and classy photogrpahy!
Recommended for all of you and I'm definitely having him on board in my events to come! 😀
P.S. The testimonial picture that i have added is to prove how comfortable I really was with posing around with all the humor. 😀
I chose Mustafa Ilyas for covering my engagement ceremony, and I have no regrets. He not only impressed us by his work but also by his friendly attitude. The picture quality is superb. His work is very professional which could be depicted by the quality of digital album.
We got to know of him through mutual friends, had seen Mustafa's work and thought it was worth a shot. Believe you me, it was the best decision we made. The pictures have come out quite nice.
The most important thing with photographers is that you need to be comfortable with them, he made sure to befriend us first and then carry on with shoot. He was congenial and accommodating, highly recommend him for any of your special events!
I saw Mustafa's previous work on his website and was immediately impressed by his photographic style and I made the best decision by choosing Mustafa Ilyas Photography for my Nikkah event. Thank you so much for being part of our day. You were absolutely fantastic and we are in love with the pictures. Can’t stop looking through them! You have really captured the moments of the day perfectly and the photography is simply amazing. There are just so many beautiful pictures we love, it's hard to choose just a few favorites. Thank you so much for all your hard work and efforts. 🙂
It was really a pleasure working with Mr. Mustafa. He traveled more than 1000 miles to be part of my event and captured one of the best shots for us. His Support, work and above all his nature is very compelling to make him The Best Choice. Really Loved his work!
Mustafa is not only an amazing photographer but also a very dear friend who has covered so many of my family events that i have honestly lost count! My engagement was his first and then it just went on: my maiyou, my chawhti, my mehndi, my brother's engagement, his mehndi, his nikkah, my cousin's engagement, my sister's engagement and whenever my younger brother gets married we are sure to call Mustafa again to do the magic and capture our moments for us. Each time it was just amazing how his work kept getting better, his dedication and his passion are so remarkable that its visible in the quality of his work. I wish you all the best for a wonderful future in photography and may you reach great heights of success. Ameen. Keep Rocking buddy, Cheers!

My mother in laws messege: Thank you Mustafa for such an amazing Nikkah coverage and presenting a very beautiful album. You have done a fantastic job!!! Highly Recommended!! Keep it up! Wish you all the Best for your bright future!! The Usmani family!!
Mustafa Ilyas is undoubtedly one of the best photographers I've known. He recently covered a family event for me, and we just loved his work, the picture quality, and all the effects were amazing! He's extremely creative and efficient with delivery of work. Thank-you Mustafa for being there and capturing our memories so beautifully.
It was my best decision to have Mustafa Ilyas as a photographer on my special day. He has an art of putting people at ease and capture each moment beautifully! He took the kind of pictures that both our families will treasure forever. His talent is visible from each picture he took as they were so perfectly captured that none of them required any editing. His knowledge of photography and equipment made him adjust the camera accordingly to capture superb pictures however the lighting may be. It was the hardest part to decide which ones to choose! I really look forward to having him capture all other events of mine.
Choosing Mustafa Ilyas Photography was the best decision I made for one my wedding events. Mustafa is clearly a very professional, yet a very friendly guy who not only brings you to ease with the photoshoot but also captures beautiful tiny moments you don't even remember otherwise... and that is what any bride would want, to treasure her wedding moments for the rest of her life.
I have also seen him work at various other weddings, ranging from concerts to conferences to trips, and I must say he enhances the feels of every event and location very appropriately. hard to describe how well he balances the color by adding life to the pictures at the same time.
I wish Mustafa Ilyas Photography all the very best for the future, and having seen his passion for photography so closely, I am sure this photographer has a very long way to go! 🙂
Mustafa Ilyas thank you for covering our mehndi and wedding events so amazingly. From bridal portraits to family, group, performances to overall event every moment had been captured delicately. The effects that you added to pictures gave them all the more life. Trustworthy and highly recommended!
Mustafa is not just an amazing photographer but also a great friend. He did my mehndi shoot and trust me he made me do so many awkward poses in such a comfortable manner that i literally enjoyed my shoot and those awkward poses later turned out to be my most beautiful pictures. What i love most about him are his candid shots where each click has its own story to tell. He can put u at ease and bring out the best in you. He is very clear and professional in explaining how to sit how to smile how to walk in order to get the most amazing results. Other than my very own experience, his all other work speaks for itself. He works with integrity, he works for his passion and i wish him best of luck with his first love: photography.
When i was looking for photographers for my wedding i was very scared about how they would turn out to be and if the photographer really would get what i wanted my pictures to be like since i myself am really fond of taking pictures. I searched and talked to a lot of photographers myself and then this one day i found out that Mustafa Ilyas who was also my junior and class mate (and a very funny one if i may add :p) also did wedding photography. I talked to him and he was really helpful in making me understand how things worked and stuff for wedding photography and I really commend his interest in wanting to work despite being really young! As it turned out my wedding pictures were AMAZING! Not only I but my whole family including my husband and his family too loved the pictures he took. The albums he made were not only creative but they even showed a story. I loved having Mustafa as my photographer and how he made sure we were really comfortable while he took our pictures. Thank you Mustafa and your partners for making my wedding memorable and capturing those important memories in the most beautiful way. I wish you all the best for the future and may you prosper and get all the success that you truly deserve!

Mustafa is an amazing photographer and a wonderful person overall. I had an excellent experience getting my engagement shoot done from him. Pictures were just WOWWW!! and loved every single one of them. He captured each and every moment very efficiently and made my day even more memorable. Thank you so much for everything, you have undoubtedly exceeded my expectations through your phenomenal work. Highly recommended!
Mustafa ilyas covered my engagement. He is probably one of the bests in town. He gave exactly what we needed. All natural and great pictures. The best thing is when the pictures and the poses seems not to be artificial. He was very friendly with the family and no one felt uncomfortable with his presence. He covered every single person at the event and gave us the pictures in almost no time. I was so sure that he was going to be covering all of my family events in the future. I would highly recommend him because of the quality work.
