Pre-wedding photoshoot at an aquarium in Bangalore
Why couples choose an aquarium shoot
- The underwater tunnel: India's longest, with fish passing overhead and blue light all round.
- The jellyfish room: reflective walls repeat the jellyfish into the distance, giving a soft, glowing background.
- Indoor waterfalls: moving water without having to leave the city.
- The ocean-view seating lounge: a calmer frame for seated portraits.
- Weather-proof: everything is indoors, so rain or harsh sun will not cancel the day.
How to arrange it
- Ask first. Call +91 96063 11881 or reach us through the FAQ and contact page with your preferred date, crew size and equipment.
- Agree the terms. Permission, timing and any charges are decided by the management. We have not published a shoot fee, so ask when you call.
- Plan your gear. Bags and backpacks are not allowed for visitors and there is no bag storage, so confirm how equipment will be handled.
- Buy entry tickets for anyone who is not part of the approved crew.

Timing tips
- We open at 10:30 AM. Ask whether an early slot is possible when you request permission.
- The diver feeds the fish at 6:30 PM, when tanks are most active. Good for motion shots, though the area may be busier.
- On Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays the mermaid show runs at 1:00, 3:00, 5:00 and 7:40 PM, subject to availability. Plan around it or include it.
Note: Mermaid show timings keep changing. Always call +91 96063 11881 or check with the staff at the ticket counter before you come for the mermaid show.
