Bhalla Indian Wedding - New Jersey Wedding Photographer

This wedding was one of the most amazing experiences ever. I have to admit I was a little scared when Maren & Kapil asked us to photograph their Indian wedding after we photographed their American wedding last fall. But we did some research, asked a lot of questions and went and had a BLAST!

After their American wedding we knew this wedding would be a lot of fun...but we had no idea!! The dancing...TONS of dancing. And the colors. I loved all of the colors. Everything was bright and gorgeous. Simply beautiful.

And any wedding with a horse in it is fine by me   :)   as you know my love for animals!

Maren & Kapil - thank you so much for trusting us with your wedding - it was an amazing and memorable experience!! Enjoy your sneak peek!!

Stranahan Wedding - Part I - Washington DC Wedding Photographer

I feel so incredibly lucky to have been the photographer at Jamie and Ryan's wedding. Everything was gorgeous. Perfect. I was in awe the entire day. After the gorgeous ceremony - photos of which will be posted in Part II - they arranged for a limo to drive us around to the various monuments they had scoped out in Washington DC for photos.

OMG. I was in heaven. As you can see from some of the photos, we had an audience everywhere we went. It was like Jamie and Ryan were celebrities and I was their paparazzi. It was so much fun!

One thing you can't tell from most of the photos, is that it had rained all morning, it was wet, muddy and chilly and overcast. Overcast weather is perfect for photos - lots of shade and no squinting.

These photos are my favorites from our trip around the city after their wedding ceremony. There were so many I had to break their wedding preview post into 2 posts. So there are more to come...
