More highlights are here.

Saima and Sarfaraz | Gainesville Wedding Photographer

I had the pleasure of meeting the personality that is Saima several weddings ago. She was was one of the first to join the exclusive salman Photography fanclub and help spread the word. So naturally when it came to her wedding - I was thrilled to have the opportunity to capture it.

Gator Town, Florida is home to quite a strong, and tightly knit Pakistani community. The families there know each other, and I was happy to see old friends I had made from other weddings I had covered.

A very sincere Mubarekbaat to Saima and Sarfaraz! Khush raho, hemesha ke liye!!

Sahar and Taimur - Nikkah Ceremony

While I do travel a considerable amount for weddings - there's nothing like shooting in my home town of Fort Lauderdale., Florida. Sahar and Taimur were an exceptionally lively couple, and a lot of fun to work with.

The South Florida Summer weather cooperated with us long enough for some fun outdoor formals with the couple. The venue below is Mehfil: a popular restaurant and banquet hall for Pakistani and Indian Weddings; but you wouldn't know it from the photos. The decorators did a wonderful job of transforming this hall into an intimate venue for very joyous Nikkah ceremony.

I look forward to seeing the couple again in the fall for their Shaadi and reception.
