Amsterdam is known for its beautiful canals, quirky architecture, and lively nightlife. Most Couples opt for Pre Wedding Shoots butMrinal and Puja chose the alternate route and decided on a photo shoot after the wedding festivities so they could enjoy and relax in the streets of Amsterdam.
It’s also a great place to find Dutch art and culture. It is sometimes referred to as the “Venice of the North” due to the vast number of canals. It is colloquially referred to as the world’s capital of bicycles. Anybody who has ever tried to make their way through the city centre of Amsterdam will tell you how painful it can get.
We did our best to capture the essence of this beautiful city in these photographs from the cobbled streets, and beautiful architectural houses to the number of canals.
By doing a photography session after your wedding, there is a freedom of locations, with as much time as you need. If you had to compromise on the site of your Wedding then this is your chance to have the backdrop of your dreams, from the beach to the forest, to wherever your imagination might take you.
Mona and Imran’s dreamy destination wedding still gives us all the feels! They got married in Southern Palms, Kenya which sits at the edge of the Indian Ocean on the gorgeous, renowned Diani Beach where the white sand and blue skies played a huge role in these swoon-worthy photos! We were so happy to be a part of their stunning, crazy, three-day-long party with close family and friends coming from afar to celebrate this special occasion.

Their Pre Wedding was just as beautiful as the country and the couple we were shooting. We got a couple of dreamy shots of them walking along the shores of Diani Beach and course a couple of fun playful shots!
Mehendi Ceremony was a chill event with Mona getting her hands designed and people gathering around for dinner.
Day 2
Imran’s Dirty Pithi Ceremony was an affair that we couldn’t have even imagined. His friends and family threw water at him, emptied bottles of ketchup and mustard, and broke eggs on his head! Then he went for a dip in the water to get rid of the pantry items on his body!
Mandvo & Pithi was a more formal ceremony where their close ones congratulated them and gave their blessings.
Sangeet was a memorable affair with incredible performances by the family followed by more dancing throughout the night. For Imran’s performance he came sporting a colourful vest flaunting his 6 pack abs and dazzled everyone with his moves. The rest of the night was so much fun that we found ourselves grooving to the beat and tapping our feet while shooting!
Day 3
Mona’s bridesmaid’s were the cutest! After helping her get ready, we got beautiful portraits of Mona and her nice moment of Imran and his father getting ready for the big day ahead. Their wedding venue set against the backdrop of the ocean with white roses was truly beautiful. After their Nikkah got over, the smiles on their faces were ever so bright. The joy radiating off both their faces was apparent as you can see!
Later that day in the evening, the couple made their entry with a bang towards the Reception where the celebrations continued with a cake cutting, the first dance by the couple, speeches from the family and a father-daughter dance. The party went on till dawn with people drinking and dancing the night away.
Varun & Sanne’s telugu wedding celebrations were spread across 3 days in various locations all over Hyderabad. South Indian weddings always tend to give the best pictures perhaps because they are filled with color, gorgeous bridal wear, and tons of laughter and love!
The festivities started with a fun Mangal Snanam ceremony at the Groom’s place, where the couple’s close friends and family joined them and showered their love and blessings. The following evening at the gorgeous Hyderabad Polo and Riding Club, the Mehendi ceremony was a fun-filled event where Sanne got her hands intricately decorated, and her father gave a heartwarming speech to congratulate the couple which made them emotional but soon after a few hugs and tears were shared they got the party started. With an open bar and loud music, the crowd didn’t need any more motivation to hit the dance floor and groove the night away.
Sangeet, the next evening was a sundowner to a sunrise event where their close friends and family did a few dance performances, and sang a dutch song on stage that they wrote which bought out hoots and laughter from the couple. Sanne and Varun did a fantastic number to a Telugu song that wowed the crowd.
The Wedding Day showcased Sanne in a Gold Silk Saree adorned with traditional gold jewellery, and Varun colour coordinated with this better half sporting a cream sherwani with gold details. After the formalities of the puja were done, the Varmala took place joyously, and the rice shower ceremony was a fun event with smiles and laughter lighting up the area.
Aditya and Anjali’s royal affair took place at Jai Mahal Palace, Jaipur which is set in a picturesque exuberance of royalty and opulence. This Floating Palace was the perfect venue for their elegant wedding. These two are lawyers who met through mutual friends in college and after a few interactions about their love for food and travel, that was the beginning of a beautiful romance.
After the wedding got pushed back because of covid…twice! They finally got to tie the knot in this magnificent palace surrounded by their family and friends. We loved capturing their special day and as you can see, the chemistry between them is evident in the photos.
Bengali Weddingsare a vibrant affair and involve many unique rituals that are followed very passionately and this sets it apart from other regions in the country.
Arunabho & Sagarika’s wedding took place at Basho Bougainvillea in Karjat, set amidst the unspoiled beauty of lush green Sahyadri mountains and overlooking the stunning Mulshi Lake! They had their wedding after the first wave of covid died down, it was a truly intimate yet rustic wedding celebration with only limited close friends and family in the bliss of nature with breathtaking views. The colorful yet elegant decor complimented the charm of the backyard wedding festivities very well. The Petite Project did a great job creating the perfect vibe in this off-beat but breathtaking place. We had a great time capturing a lot of beautiful moments at this wedding!
Mehendi was a chill get-together where everyone bonded over a few drinks and danced. Haldi is always eventful and the friends and family had the time of their lives drenching the couple in water and flowers. The Wedding Ceremony has the most fun ritual, Saat Pak, where Arunabho waited anxiously for his bride who donned a red and gold banarasi looking gorgeous as ever!
