What is the ruling on taking on wedding photography projects and imitating people (Muslims and non-Muslims) who do so without their permission, knowing that I do not know whether they do it for money or for personal experiences? Is wedding photography for men permissible? Is it forbidden to photograph a wedding if there is music among women or men, even if I did not photograph it?

Photographing weddings is permissible if it is free from haram acts and religious prohibitions, and does not involve being present in a place where reprehensible acts are occurring without denouncing them. However, a Muslim should avoid it to safeguard their faith.
