Fun Pre Wedding shoot in Dapoli, Maharashtra

Pre-wedding shoots are for those who want fun, goofy pictures of togetherness, without the hassles of heavy wedding attires, the umpteen amount of people hanging around you, and the pressure to hurry up and get ready for the next event. Such shoots help in getting to know one another freely.

Nature is truly majestic and when we allow ourselves to truly sink into its beauty, we are awarded spectacular results. And that’s exactly what Sonam and Ankur did on the sandy shores of Dapoli. These lovebirds gave us all the playful shots needed to inspire other couples to go ahead and have a fun photo shoot. 

No doubt a few slam dunks into the water had to be endured but it was all worth it… I mean have a look at these shots!

 

 

Pre-Wedding at Taj, Nashik

Pre-Wedding at Taj, Nashik

Pankaj and Priyanshi wanted their pre-wedding to be done at their favourite weekend getaway destination – The Gateway Hotel Ambad Nashik. Part of the famous Taj Group of Hotels, the property is all a photographer could ask for, from expansive green lawns to beautifully constructed halls and galleries. These two wanted the shoot to be fun, intimate and cozy. We started from their rooms and asked them to wear something comfortable and feel at home. The beautiful French windows with their white drapes let in some beautiful soft light through them and we chose to make the most of it. When Pankaj decided to play his ‘chill mix’ of songs, the vibe and the mood of the shoot was set and what followed was nothing short of a snuggle-o-thon.

Their chemistry shone through the pictures – and directing them felt effortless. We never knew so much could be done using nothing but a French window, a bed and a happy couple. Soon after this we headed out to make the most of the golden hour and click some fun and goofy pictures of the two love-birds. The hotel’s arched windows, beautiful galleries and lush gardens formed the perfect backdrop for what we wanted. The session concluded with jokes and laughter, we had fun after all and so did they and I suppose this is what pre-wedding shoots are made for, more than anything else – to get acquainted with the photographer, to trade stories and have fun along the way. 

Its true that many photographers these days are shying away from doing pre-wedding photography, the once booming market for pre-weddings has surely come to a standstill. Most of them don’t find it worth their time as pre-weddings often pay less for the amount of effort and creative energies that go into it. With the apparent dearth of good photographers left in this space, the pictures often lack innovation. While many couples see it as a means of making their pinterest boards come to life, there’s little or no motivation for the photographer to try something new and challenging. However, Pankaj and Priyanshi came to us with some fresh and exciting ideas for their pre-wedding photoshoot that we couldn’t resist and ended up with some amazing pictures and a whole lot of fun. So, the next time you meet your wedding photographer, share your story before you start showing them your pinterest board!

Couple Shoot in Mumbai

Mumbai is the most preferred couple shoot destination, we have come across till now. Time and again, we get the opportunity to shoot in the city, which we call our home as well. And its different, each time! 
Another story from Mumbai featuring Ankit & Kejal! Ankit & Kejal’s story started in Mumbai, 10 years ago and stood the test of long distance and them being in different cities and in different time zones. They took their forever vows in December, 2018 in Mumbai. Mumbai is not only a city, its a connection. And here we try to establish that connection through our photographs. Peace in chaos, we would like to call this one. Here you go!

We are sure you will find this pre-wedding shoot unusual and different from what you may have seen so far.  Well, if not entirely then in a great measure this was the first time we shot an intimate pre-wedding shoot. As couples increasingly look to do something different from the rest, they are ready to get out of their comfort zone and try new ideas. We feel the best way to do something is different is to personalise the shoot by letting the photographs depict your personality and story. 

Omkar & Punita wanted an unusual and different pre-wedding shoot from the beginning. We brainstormed on many ideas ranging from basing it on their personality, shooting it entirely in a studio to even an intimate boudoir shoot. What finally we ended up doing was a mix of the usual to unusual. Hence photographs reflect their chemistry at Mumbai’s iconic Gateway of India, a comic re-enactment of how they met through their mutual friend – Pranav, their first kiss in a Kaali-Peeli and finally an intimate shoot in a beautiful property – Seven Sands Villa, in Lonavala which culminated with a re-staging of Tip Tip Barsa Pani from the movie Mohra. Location for the second half the pre-wedding was Seven-Sands Villa in Lonavala. Thanks to Vishal and Mrinal and their hospitality we had a hassle free shooting experience at their property.

We dont know about you, but we do believe in fairytales and cliches, that bring out the love story of the couple. Azra & Murtuza’s story, right from meeting each other for the first time to deciding they were made for each other and taking it to the holy vows, was indeed a “fairytale”

They wanted a dreamy location for their Pre-wedding shoot, without compromising the connection with the place where they first met! The City of dreams – Mumbai met the deal perfectly! Exploring the architectural beauty of Gateway of India, the sparkling ocean, the bobbing boats in the waters and the flying wonders made way for some stunning pictures! Its always been a pleasure shooting here in The Maximum City

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Couple Shoot in Pondicherry

Couple Shoot in Pondicherry

Pondicherry, or Puducherry, is famously known as the French Riviera of the East, and is one of the most mesmerizing and charming places in South India. A former French colony, this quaint little town has retained its old-world French charm. 8000 kilometers away from France, Pondicherry comes very close to giving you a feel of the French culture and the French influence is very obvious in the city right from the food to the architecture.

And we got a chance to shoot Snigdha & Prateek at this beautiful location. A walk down the French Quarters, to chilling at the traditional coffee places and finally heading to the beach, it was a glorious day and we would like to document the memories here. Here goes the photo-set!
