It was just about a year ago when I met Joyce and Robin for the first time. They are a photographer’s favorite type of client, booking just about 1 year in advance and having most of their details planned out. Now, we have done our share of South Asian weddings, but never have we photographed a ceremony where the couple followed the Orthodox Christian religion. Joyce was kind enough to break down all the specifics on the religious and cultural sides of the wedding, and even shared some photos from her relative’s weddings. After doing some research on our own, we felt confident that we can provide a quality service that will cover all their needs.
The lovely couple and their party of 12 started the day with a photo shoot at the Chinese Botanical Garden located within Snug Harbor in Staten Island, New York. You could not ask for a better day, the sun was shining and there was no humidity. All of the bridesmaids and groomsmen were so easy to work with! They were a lot of fun, and often we’d have a hard time not laughing at all of their silly jokes and antics.
After the shoot our photography teams separated, and went Robin and Joyce’s home to photograph the prayer ceremony (and to inhale lunch). Immediately following, we all met up at Greek Orthodox Church for the wedding. This was quite an experience for our team. Check out the lovely photos of this Greek Orthodox Indian Wedding in New York.
