08.15.09 – Shihab and Vania’s Wedding

Just a few weeks ago we did a quick e-shoot with Vania & Shihab, usually most couples are really stressed out and anxious about their wedding. That was not the case with these two, they were both cool, collected and calm. These two are a photographer’s dream. No bridezilla, no crazy relatives and no mishaps!

Ronak and I started the morning by splitting up our equipment and heading over to each of the B&G’s homes. I went to see Vania and Ronak went to Shihab’s home. I got to take some intimate shots of Vania and her family and bridesmaids as she got ready for her big day. Ronak got some great shots of Shihab and his parents and groomsmen get ready. Guys got it easy, we can just throw on a shirt, belt some shoes and we are good to go! This was far from our usual Indian wedding photography, but a pleasure to shoot.

Their wedding was held at the Highlawn Pavilion in West Orange New Jersey. This venue is amazing! It is located on the Eagle Rock Reservation and overseas neighboring towns and has a great view of New York City. The venue is perfect for a wedding with very European inspired design, romance was definitely in the air.

The wedding itself was held outdoors under the big blue sky. The well manicured lawn allowed for some really great formal shots, as well as some more modern style photos. After the wedding we all went inside to start the party! The reception was one like none other. Ice sculptures, missing vodka slides (don’t ask), Bollywood style dance performances and a bit of corridinho made the night one to remember forever. Enough with chatter, on to the pics!
