Portrait of wedding photographer Sasanka Chandrasena in Colombo, Sri Lanka

Sasanka Chandrasena — Colombo, Sri Lanka

Honoring Heritage through Modern Lenses

My journey began in the ancient city of Kandy, surrounded by the rhythmic beats of traditional drummers and the sacred aura of the Dalada Maligawa. I realized that Sri Lankan weddings aren't just events; they are a weaving of generations.

From the precise astrological timing of the Poruwa Siritha to the intricate tying of the Thali, I approach every ceremony with deep cultural reverence and an artist's eye for light.

My style is a quiet observation—letting the betel leaves fall where they may, capturing the tear in a father's eye, and the ethereal glow of oil lamps, all wrapped in a minimalist, cinematic aesthetic.

04Kind Words

What stood out the most was his style. It's not the usual flashy or overly posed photography. It's more artistic, emotional, and full of life. You can tell he sees things differently through the lens. Every photo has a mood, a story. Not just a picture. We're genuinely grateful for how beautifully he captured our day. If you're someone who appreciates heartfelt, artistic photography over the usual commercial kind, Sasanka is the one. Highly recommend him!
