My 2023 experience with The Cheesecake Project was highly disappointing, and I want to share the key details: - While the photos turned out really good, the owner's overall performance was subpar. Communication was poor, timelines were consistently extended because of countless excuses, and work quality was inconsistent. - Owner promised to be present at all events but failed to show up for one and arrived late for the wedding, despite assurances. They were not present even during the bride-groom portraits. - Event photos were delivered 2.5 weeks beyond the promised 10-week timeframe, with fewer edited images than paid for and no compensation. They promised extra edited photos because of their delays and sickness and what not, but we received fewer than even paid for. (I have the proof of their claims and actual delivery.) - The traditional video quality was subpar (think 2005 wedding video), and the album creation process was chaotic and significantly delayed. - Errors in the printed album were not addressed without an additional fee. - They shifted entire quality control responsibilities onto us, the clients, which was unacceptable and made everything really stressful. - Engaging with them required excessive feedback and follow-ups, making the experience exhausting. - I suspect they prioritize high-profile clients, despite charging premium fees for everyone. I have evidence to support my complaints. If you value punctuality and a seamless experience, avoid The Cheesecake Project. The initial review I drafted was much longer as I have endless complaints about my experience but I’ve shared a quick summary to help others. Don't be swayed by their initial charm. My bridal journey was marred by disappointment, and I hope others can avoid a similar experience.

Stuti and her team are just the best at documenting any event, whether it be a small event or a grand one. Everybody on the team is exceptionally talented and we loved working with them for our wedding! They’re super enthusiastic to do experiments and make funky photos outside of the traditional photos which was really exciting. Stuti goes the extra mile and is always present to ease any tough situations and brings her infectious happiness to make the happiest photos. Would love to work with the team in the future and so very thankful for the lovely photos!

The Cheesecake Project was our photographer! Everyone in my family has been raving about our experience with them! The treated us like royalty, we’re super accommodating and communicative, and had the most amazing ideas for shots that made as look fab! Would highly recommend Stuti and her team for your big day!

Absolutely loved them. They captured not only every key moment but key emotions so beautifully! The team was very skilled yet accommodating and Stuti's energy is absolutely infectious. She kept me light-hearted and chill through times that could have been stressful. Source

Cheesecake project had shot a few weddings that I had attended before and I absolutely fell in love with their work. It seemed so personal and yet so fun and I knew I wanted them for my wedding. From the get go, Stuti has been the most fun and yet professional person I’ve worked with. She made sure that every single family member on both sides felt completely involved in all photos and videos. Her team is FABULOUS and they somehow are present everywhere!! I am in awe of the photos she’s taken by the end of the wedding, she came in as someone i hired for photographs but I’ve definitely made a friend. Highly highly recommend 🤗🤗

Best decision ever was to hire Cheesecake Project as my photography team.

After having followed Stuti and her team’s work for a few years I’d made up my mind about who’d be documenting our wedding (whenever that was). And a few years later, when our engagement was on the cards, she was the first person I contacted wanting to eagerly block their dates. Needless to say, her team and she were and are magic to work with! ❤️✨ those interactions and pictures are still something I hold so dear to my heart. And, when we decided to get married in the middle of a pandemic, there was no guessing as to who I’d go back to for our intimate, genuine moments to be captured. This time around Stu made it even easier keeping the situation in mind - with all protocols, connecting me with the best make up artists, giving suggestions for venue and what not. She’s really more of a friend and a queen every bride would want as a part of her army. We’ve seen the preview of our pictures and can’t wait for them all! 😍😍😍😍😍

They were the best decision we made. We never even considered anyone else because we knew we wanted them. It was a super easy and fun experience and at the end of the day we were left with beautiful photographs capturing our most precious moments 100/10 would recommend them :) Source

Stuti is an extremely bubbly and friendly girl. Her team is absolutely brilliant and super professional! Source

We had them fly down from mumbai to jaipur, where our wedding function was being held. They covered all our events except for the reception, 2 years down the lane, I'm still as obsessed with my wedding album like the very first day, the team captured the best elements throughout all our events, and the wedding video was also drop dead gorgeous!

We had booked The cheesecake project by stuti and it was a lovely experience working with the whole team. They were so good, so humble and so accomodating. They took care of our requirments, they were also very interactive with my family and took care of everything. The results were amazing, totally loved the work. We all are very happy and satisfied with their work!

I think the best decision I ever made was to go with The Cheesecake Project. Stuti and her team are not just highly skilled, but such warm and lovely people. They accommodated ALL of my requests, from last minute additions to changes, even though it could have been inconvenient for them. Their absolutely brilliant sense of aesthetic is only the cherry on top of wonderful people they are. They were a delight to have as a part of our wedding party. The pictures are stunning, every frame they captured was so beautiful that I could not decide on my favourite.I would definitely recommend them to every to be bride and groom. I am surely going to make them a part of our future celebrations too!

Our wedding photographers were not only a joy to be around but also fun to work with. Making us look and feel like royalty, Stuti and her team worked long hours of capturing every moment for us to remember our special day. What's better is that her passion for photography translates into mind-boggling images that truly speak a 1000 words. Source

The Cheesecake Project is simply AMAZING! Right from the first phone conversation, Stuti has been super enthusiastic, and supportive. It was almost like having a friend along the way. During our pre-wedding shoot, she put us at ease right away and the photographs were amazing! Stuti, Harshad and Sunny did an amazing job at all our events, where they managed to capture so many wonderful moments even those we missed! And the photos were everything we have always wanted and more! We love every photo and so does our family. We wholeheartedly recommend Stuti; she is simply the BEST! She throws herself completely into making sure she captures every moment in the best possible way. And the results are just fantastic! Having The Cheesecake Project at our wedding events was easily the best decision of the wedding planning process. We cannot thank you enough! Lots of love and best wishes, Peeral & Utkarsha.

Amongst all the photographers i met during my wedding planning process , Stuti was the only one i connected with, in the very first meeting. Hence i decided that i should hire the Cheesecake project because i knew that it would be very easy to work with her for me and my family. Coming from a muslim family, my family is a bit reserved and conscious about themselves and some rituals as well! But the entire team was highly understanding and accommodating and gave us our space to conduct our ceremonies and did not barge into our privacy unless asked to!!They are magicians and made all of us look so good without any effort ‭of posing. Stuti is a house full of talent and i totally recommend her for ur big day! She made me feel like shes been my friend since ages and after the wedding got over.. the only person i missed the most was her! Her presence around you makes you feel so happy and pepped about your wedding despite all the nervousness and tension. She is one of the best photographers of our times who knows her job very well. She plays around with natural light whether morning or night and makes you confident about yourself...and that is what is needed the most in a photographer !She is open to suggestions and takes them into consideration which is really needed when it is your own wedding,unlike others!The cheesecake project rocks and if you have hired them then its the best decision you’ve made. Iv got pictures and memories with the entire team that will last forever.A bigggg thankyou to the entire team from the Rizvi’s and the Khan’s:-)

I was on the verge of turning into Bridezilla when I stumbled upon Stuti's albums and her work.. within minutes of going through her work, I knew I had found the eyes that will capture the biggest and most important day of my life just the way I wish to remember it

So my experience with Stuti was a very unique one. My husband and I were planning to get engaged this June and we were actually looking for pre wedding photographers. I stumbled upon Stuti when I was researching on Instagram. I was mesmerised by her presentation of bright colors and I loved the Colorpop!!!!!! However, we ended up getting married this June very adventurously and roped in Stuti to capture our reception party. Despite extremely narrow window that we provided, she agreed and we got to work with two of her talented photographers!! They were very calm as we got crazy with photo madness and made them take crazy amount of pics! We got the pics edited good time and we both were super happy with them! The only disappointment that I have is that i still haven't met Stuti ( again she managed everything flawlessly behind the scenes too) Thanks Stuti.

I remember the first time i stumbled upon The Cheesecake Project... I was chilling with my sister over a cup of coffee and then i saw the PINK HUES in Stuti's pictures! And i fell in love! A few email's later, I knew i wanted her to be my photographer! This girl doesn't disappoint! She's a pitara of ideas and she with her camera makes magic! She's so easy to talk to, so warm and affectionate and makes you feel at ease! I've married the most camera shy person that there is on the face of the earth but it is amazing and overwhelming how this girl managed to give us such beautiful memories. The pre wedding shoot screams gorgeous. And the wedding pictures speak of timeless elegance. The wedding movie is heart warming. My inbox is constantly flooding on how beautiful our pictures look. They could be straight out of a fairy tale. Thank you so much Stu. I've said it thousand times already but you STILL MADE US A DREAM.

The Cheesecake Project was in my wish list when I saw wedding pictures of some of my friends. After I spoke to Stuti the first time, I was adamant that it has to be her. We are so glad she was free on our wedding day and agreed to photograph our wedding! I remember the first time we spoke, we both were just laughing :D The most hassle free experience that I had during my entire wedding preparations! Me and my husband do not live in India so we had just 15 days before our wedding to take care of our shopping, wedding decor, menus etc. and in the midst of all that Stuti was so accommodating to do our pre-wedding photoshoot! She was more excited than both of us :D and also super quick to share the pictures! Our wedding pictures are so so beautiful :) she does magic with her camera and my husband, who is usually not fond of getting clicked, agrees with me! Thank you very much Stu for giving us beautiful memories of our wedding day and making us both feel comfortable! wish you all the good luck! <3

The Cheesecake Project had been on my wishlist ever since I randomly bumped into a few of their pictures over two years ago. At that moment, I decided that these will be the people who will help me make my wedding memories! In fact, the first thing I did when you we had finalised on a date was get in touch with Stuti. And boy am I glad I did! Seeing my wedding pictures post the wedding helped me relive that day, and I'm sure it will have the same effect 20 years from now. Stuti is the perfect HappyMaker! Thank you for being my fairy Godmother Stuti. Loads of love and luck for all your future endeavours!

So when I first spoke to this girl, I was amazed at how excited someone else could be to make sure your wedding is special! From then to the pre wedding shoot and then the wedding... It has been a wonderful experience knowing her and seeing her work. She can make you very comfortable and is available 24x7 for all your queries and is open to ideas for the shoot. Super prompt at sharing the pics (at least the preview of it) and of course, the pics is awesome!

Stuti did our pre wedding shoot in Mumbai at our place in Madh island. we were really impressed with the outcome. her energy is infectious and she ensures the couple is very comfortable around her. Im not a camera friendly person but i love how she has captured us and the beautiful background. Plus she gave us lovely clicks with our dogs as well :)

<p>Stuti shot our wedding in June in Mumbai in the middle of the first big rains of the season. She also shot a pre-wedding shoot, the engagement and the sangeet functions. She was friendly, professional and covered all the events extremely well on her own. She has captured all the perfect little moment and the pictures are incredible. Stuti has a natural talent for photography and a knack for finding those moments you want to remember. Thanks a lot Stuti!!</p>

Choosing Stu and The Cheesecake Project was the best decision we took for our wedding. We do not live in India but Stu made sure that she took care of everything from planning the dates, venues for the photo shoot and sending us pictures. She is awesome to work with. She is full of energy and enthusiasm. She makes sure all moments are captured in the most amazing way. She knows exactly what she needs to capture at what time. The pictures have turned out to be spectacular. We are extremely happy that our photo shoot and wedding was captured in the most unique yet fabulous way by Stu. Thank you sooooo much Stu for giving us the most beautiful, live and colorful memories for our new chapter.

<p>We had Stu photograph our wedding (and post-wedding couple shoot) in December, and it was amazing! Stu is super friendly and extremely enthusiastic, and I have never seen anyone more passionate about what they do. She may have been more excited than I was :) She was absolutely awesome- even through the sneaking in between relatives to get THAT shot, crazy bride tantrums, the gazillion rescheduling of events and everything else that could possibly go wrong at a wedding! She has a knack of capturing the most candid moments in a unique yet unassuming way! All our wedding photographs were brilliant, and we can&#39;t thank Stu more. She brings an energy to what she does, like I&#39;ve never seen before- right through the planning, talking, e-mailing, to the actual wedding and photo shoots! Thank you, Stu &lt;3</p>

I cannot express enough how happy my wife and I are with the pictures of our candid photoshoot! It was very important to us to find someone who could capture our candid pics in a way that was tasteful, elegant, and truly reflected who we are as a couple, and that??s exactly what Stuti delivered. She did a spectacular job and was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. She is extremely professional and incredibly talented. She also has a wonderful calming presence, which is something that any couple will greatly appreciate on their life writting photography. Stuti is a fabulous photographer who deserves all of the great reviews she??s received on this website and more ?? I absolutely highly recommend her for your life writting photo shoots! Thank you so much Stuti!

Cheescake project captures the most beautiful moments in your life in a most beautiful way. Each photograph that is clicked depicts an emotion associated with each moment and tells a story. She makes you look and feel beautiful. She doesn't expect you to pose like a model but captures the real you in a most natural way. Stuti the Hitler of cheesecake project was a complete stranger to me when I hired her for covering my wedding but during the due course she became a dearest friend and a family. The warmth and affection in her makes you open up in front of her lenses quiet naturally. Stu understands each ritual, each emotion and each moment and captures them into a most beautiful frame which stays with you for a lifetime!!!

if you want a photographer who makes you feel very comfortable and want some one who helps you open up and feel very comfortable then CheeseCake is the perfect project to hire. She makes the entire procedure worthwhile and something you will look forward to again. She will click you, edit your pics and befriend you for a long time bond. Happy Getting Clicked !!

Stuti has been a great gift to us for actually being the best photographer we decided to hire to frame down our pre and post wedding memories ! She will make you laugh, Be stupid all the time, Do all sorts of crazy things and without you realizing your "Captured" . That's what you call candid right ? Hardworking , Creative and A Great Human Being is the chief Hitler @ The Cheesecake Project and we call her STU !
