admin — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 20:06:32 +0000

It was such a pleasure to shoot Sapna & Ilango’s beautiful wedding over the Labour Day long weekend of this year. We had such a blast documenting their day, with so many beautiful details, from the gorgeous bride to handsome groom, and a FUN bridal party, it was everything that we look for in a couple & their wedding day. And I can’t possibly end this post without expressing how much i love love LOVE Sapna’s oh so vintage chic jewellery, that perfectly accented her wedding lehenga. And let’s not forget again another perfect hue of red picked by our bride that complimented her skin tone, & overal look.

Happy Monday Everyone!

Location – Compass Beach Point Resort

Happy Monday everyone! Again we are so excited to share Anita & Dhanu’s Rock that Dress session that we shot in Bahamas the day after their wedding day.. The concept of the shoot was simple! We wanted to create timeless romantic, nostalgic imagery, capturing this time in Anita & Dhanu’s life & the time they spent by the Love Beach in Bahamas..With that thought Happy Monday again!

Enjoy!

Bahamas Destination Wedding – Anita + Dhanu ~ Part I

Ceremony Site – Love Beach by Compass Point Beach Resort

Today we are so delighted to share Dhanu & Anita’s destination wedding in Bahamas. I have to admit this wedding was the most beautiful & intimate wedding that we have ever documented. And I say that not exactly because of the number of guests that attended, as the guest count was in upwards to 125+. But because the day of the wedding ended up being a very windy day, & as you will see in the images below, it got quite hard to ignite the fire & also to keep it going to carry on with Anita & Dhanu’s Hindu wedding ceremony. So the priest asked all the guests to gather around the bride & groom to hold the wind back & provide protection to fire from the wind. It was simply amazing. So without further ado, here is part I of Anita & Dhanu’s Bahamas wedding!

Happy Wednesday!

Anita’s shoe collection is to die for! Wait till you see her Badgley Mischka shoes for reception!

Anita & Dhanu’s moms-love when the families meet at the wedding!

I personally love this image of Anita & her dad in the background..

When shooting a destination wedding this shot can be so easily coordinated & a must for us! While Harp did backflips to get all the guests attention, I mounted myself on a chair & took the shot.. err.. yes! I was totally joking about Harp doing black flips…although it is an interesting idea..hmm may be next time..

Shradha & Pranav’s Wedding Day Finale – New Delhi, India

On this sort of gloomy but a warm day in Toronto, I am so excited to share the final post from Shradha & Pranav’s wedding ceremony in India. I am actually quite sad as this post marks the finale of all the wedding coverage from Shradha & Pranav’s wedding but like they say all good things come to an end & so they must..We wish Shradha & Pranav all the VERRRRY best in their new life together & thank you again for making us a part of it

Enjoy!

Happy Wednesday Everyone!

Venue: Qutub Hotel, New Delhi

Hair & Make Up – Vidya Tikari Studio

Few days after the wedding & before Shradha & Pranav jetted off for their very exotic honeymoon in Thailand, we did a bridal shoot in Delhi. We started the shoot at the nation’s national monument, The India Gate, followed by Qutub Minar. Although we started so earlllly in the morning as the sun rises quite early in Delhi this time of the year, we couldn’t believe how many people were already out on the streets, plus tourists on tours & so many children on day trips from school. It was hard to find quite spots without too many people around but somehow we managed & the shoot turned out to be awesome!

When in India.. the land of Bollywood must do a filmi shot.. & this one is totally inspired by Veer Zaara

Shradha’s Pre-Wedding Ceremonies-New Delhi, India

admin — Mon, 18 Apr 2011 15:37:45 +0000

Continuing on with blogging Shradha & Pranav’s wedding festivities in India, today I am so excited to share their pre-wed henna & ‘Haldi” ceremony. Both the ceremonies took place right outside on the street of Shradha’s parents’ place in New Delhi. And In true Indian wedding style, hot pink tent with orange accents was put up to host all the pre-wedding ceremonies with again delish vegetarian food & drinks for all the friends & family.While going through the images again this morning trying to blog for these events, I started to reminisce about the wedding, all the people, details, & about our experience there. Everything just reminded me how lucky & how truly blessed we are to be able to do what we truly love & are passionate about. We are SO thankful to our profession to have allowed us to see such great places, meet many amazing people & to be able to document such important times in their lives..On that thought, have a very happy monday ya’ll!

Cheers,

Even me & harp joined in the wedding festivities.. umm..now the question is who actually took our photo?!?!

Shradha + Pranav’s Sangeet – New Delhi

admin — Thu, 14 Apr 2011 15:31:14 +0000

In February we travelled all the way to New Delhi, India to shoot Shradha & Pranav’s grand Indian wedding. To be honest it was one GREAT & unique experience. Even though we have travelled to India several times before but this time around travelling with all our pro equipment, celebrating each & every wedding festivity with the family & being able to capture all moments, ceremonies, customs etc, was so rewarding. Also, not to forget we met some great people & made some fabulous new friends, that made “working” so much more fun! Ahem! I must also add here that I came back with +4lbs to be exact with all the delish food that we were fed while shooting ! So let’s get the India-wedding-ceremony-blog marathon started, first up Shradha & Pranav’s Sangeet festivities, which was exactly that..ALL dancing, great music & food, henna artist doing their thing & then some MORE dancing again throughout the night!

Enjoy!

While I was focused on to shooting the amazing dance sequences, Harp was capturing everyone elses expressions & reactions!

Bahamas Engagement – Anita + Dhanu

admin — Mon, 28 Mar 2011 19:37:09 +0000

Anita & Dhanu tied the knot in gorgeous Bahamas this feb & as they both reside in Washington DC (well, now in Houston), we only met with them once before the wedding & that too was at one of our 2010 clients, Deepan & Ausra’s wedding, where we chatted for a bit & decided to shoot their engagement session before the wedding in Bahamas once we arrive & then followed by their ‘Rock that Dress’ shoot the day after the wedding.

A special thanks to Sheraton Nassau Beach Resort for allowing us to shoot on their gorgeous property. And a VERY special thanks to Mother Nature for making it look like it was about to pour each moment & day that weekend but somehow holding the rain back …

Happy Monday!
