Vishal and Bhavna have been dealing with a long distance relationship for some time – Bhavna is from the UK and Vishal lives in the states. This has caused some difficulty with the wedding planning process and the couple didn’t end up booking me until three weeks out from their date! Considering that we didn’t have much time to really get into details beforehand, I really lucked out. Bhavna was very attracted to the “fine art” aspect of my photography style, and while I am definitely more of a creative photojournalistic photographer than a fine-art one, I welcomed the challenge, and was actually pretty surprised at just how much of it I seemed to have in me 🙂

The couple booked me for three days to capture both of their Piti Ceremonies beforehand, but the third day (the actual wedding) took place about two hours North of here at the Sri Guruvayurappan Temple, and I really loved the venue. This was a no-reception wedding, which also pushed me to rely a lot less on our signature fun dancing photos to give the set that extra boost.

So, Vishal and Bhavna, thanks for booking me, and in doing so, teaching me a little about myself 🙂
