What is the ruling on photographing the bride and groom with photography and video at the wedding and in the studio, especially if one of the parties is forced to do so?

Obeying one's parents is obligatory unless it involves disobedience [to Allah]. Photographing wedding parties where women are displayed is an act of disobedience, regardless of whether the photographer is male or female. This issue could have been avoided by advising the father and teaching him matters of his religion wisely, while still honoring and pleasing him. There is no harm in holding parties and banquets for an engagement, provided there are no forbidden [Shar'i] matters such as intermingling of sexes (ikhtilat) and the fiancée displaying herself immodestly (tabarruj).
