What a stunning wedding, or blessing ceremony this was! Riga and Ash coordinated a two day event, filled with customs and ceremonies from India and the US (Britain). The first day started with a very special Blessing Ceremony at my all time favorite venue, Nestldown. Ash’s sister officiated the ceremony with her husband and it was a very beautiful event. We had a lot of time to take photos around the grounds thanks to Brooke, who is the coordinator at Nestldown and is so on top of things you cannot help but to love her!

Even though it was raining in the morning we managed to get all these stunning images. We cannot wait to share the rest of their events with you coming right up in the next post!

Avita + Shab | Sikh Wedding in Sacramento

This is the second installment of Avita and Shab’s wonderful event! These images below are of the Sikh wedding ceremony and the wedding reception that followed at the Doubltree Hotel in Sacramento. We started early in the morning as the bride got ready at her home. The groom also got ready around the same time at the hotel. One of my favorite make up artists, Myrium did Avita’s makeup and it turned out amazing!

After the ceremony we did a ton of bridal party photos with their huge bridal party before heading to the Groom’s apartment where they do some blessings welcoming the new couple and new bride into the family. From there we headed to the Doubltree and awaited the start of the reception by shooting decor, cocktail hour, and the bride and groom getting ready again. We also took some more portraits of the bride and groom since now Shab had a clean shaven face and was wearing a killer suit.

The reception was a ton of fun with plenty of heartfelt speeches, a slideshow, great food (provided by the bride’s family restaurant), and dancing until late into the night. Below are our favorite images and we hope you enjoy our beautiful Indian wedding photography in Sacramento, CA. We are available for events throughout California and world wide.

Last weekend we had the pleasure of photographing Avita and Shab’s Sangeet in Sacramento, CA. Her uncle opened up his house for the event and festivities included the arrival of the Groom’s family, a Choora ceremony, plenty of dancing, food, Jaago, and more. It was a great time!

Aditi and Raghav got married this winter in India this winter but wanted to have a reception for their friends and family in the US. They chose Santa Clara Marriott for their venue and hired Wedding Documentary Photo and Cinema to document their event. This was the first wedding we used the brand new 5D Mark III camera. It has amazing low light capabilities and super fast auto focusing so we can capture images quicker in low light environments.

The evening included speeches, performances, awesome food, and a lot of dancing! Check out some of our favorite images below.
