And here is a little sneak peek of Deepan & Ausra’s engagement shoot in Paradise Island, Bahamas this weekend!

Venue: Payal Banquet Hall

Decor: Far East Wedding Decor

I was in love with Ayesha’s wedding lehenga. The color was so unique, yet so timeless.

The shoe stealing ceremony.. always SO much fun!!

For the photo session we literally only had a very small bridal suite to work with. But with some off camera lighting and 2 newly married & very beautiful people it turned out to be a great mini-photo session.

Ayesha & Malik’s wedding was the very first wedding we shot this year. So starting off with their Henna Ceremony, here a glimpse of it.. Wedding images to follow this week!

cheers,
