Haldi & mehendi
Turmeric, marigold, and nobody standing still.
These are the functions where families forget the camera is there, and that is exactly why they photograph so well.
Haldi
It usually lasts less than an hour, and most of the good moments happen in the last ten minutes, when the cousins get involved. We take the family portraits early, before anyone is yellow.
Mehendi
Mehendi is long and slow. The bride sits still for hours while everyone else talks, sings and eats. We photograph the design as it grows, and the people around it.
- The wedding dayFrom getting ready to the vidaai, covering the rituals, the family and the minutes in between.
- Sangeet & receptionThe evening functions, with performances, speeches and the stage, photographed in low light without killing the mood.
- Pre-wedding shootA relaxed session for the two of you, before the wedding, somewhere that means something.
- Roka & engagementThe first function, and often the smallest. It is also the first time both families stand in front of a camera together.
