Sarah and Faraz

Pakistani receptions are a truly a joy to photograph. Great food, smiling people, and traditional music make for an awesome party. It really makes my job easy when you've got so much vibrant color to work with. Still though, I try to stay true to unique styling that gives you a new perspectives of the Shaadi - weather you were there or not.

I'd like to add that Sarah and Faraz were very patient with me. I fed off their positive energy and hopefully - it all came through in the pictures.

Sonia

Staring down the barrel of a lens is an art. It truly is. When you're looking into someone's eyes, your expression speaks to your audience without you having to say a word. To be able to look at into a camera and convey a thought or expression takes some real practice and imagination.

As you'll see in the photos to come, after Sonia warmed up to the camera, you get the feeling she's trying to tell you something.

Pay close attention to the kaam (or intricate design patterns and details) on this gharara (traditional Pakistani or Indian wedding dress). Hand made clothing is a rarity these days, which makes it all the more reason to appreciate the handiwork.

Sit back, grab a cup of tea and allow me take you through an afternoon of photographs.
