Pasni / Annaprashana Story

Rice-feeding ceremony coverage for the home ritual, main celebration, or the complete split-day story.

Pasni / Annaprashana is often not one continuous event. A common family schedule is a smaller rice-feeding ritual at home for around 1.5–2 hours, followed by a larger celebration later in the day for around 4–5 hours. This package is structured around that reality rather than forcing every family into the same timetable.

The standard package is up to 4 hours of photography for the main celebration and is typically suited to the central ceremony, family groups, guests, blessings and candid moments. Choose the 2-hour Home Ceremony option for a smaller ritual, or the Full Pasni Day option when you want both the home ceremony and later reception or party photographed.

Coverage focuses on the rice-feeding ritual, baby portraits, parents and grandparents, family groups, blessings, cultural details, guests and candid moments. Split-day coverage can include two local call times or locations. Final image count depends on the pace and activity of the day. Travel outside Bendigo & Central Victoria, unusually long gaps, very large guest numbers or extra production requirements are confirmed before booking.
