I love photographing weddings. I really, really do. I love the emotion, the chemistry between the couples, the outpouring of love, the fashion – oh my word, the FASHION – and the amazing unpredictability of each wedding day. But when I was asked to photograph Kanza & Salman’s 2 day Pakistani wedding ceremony, words could not do justice my excitement. There is absolutely nothing boring about photographing western weddings – they are fabulous, full of style and heart and I love my clients to pieces. But to witness this kind of cultural amazement – the stark contrast to the weddings I normally photograph – was beyond moving. As a photographer, I couldn’t get enough of the bold color, the drama, the beauty and detail. I hope you enjoy these images as much I enjoyed creating them, and now sharing them.

Kanza and Salman are sweet, kind, gentle and calm. Their spirit was so soft and welcoming and their entourage of family and friends were among the most spirited I’ve ever experienced. The laugher and tears, the dancing and rejoicing that occurred was tremendous. I am so very honored to have been part of their celebration.

I wish a heart full of happiness to both Kanza & Salman and hope they have as much joy in their marriage as was present on their celebration days!
