Neelima + Brian | Fusion Wedding at Bently Reserve

April 17, 2013 by vijay Leave a Comment

We are so pleased to share Neelima and Brian’s wedding photographs on the blog today! Yesterday we featured their wedding highlights reel and now you get to see the images!

Everything was perfectly set up thanks to our bride Neelima who is an Event Coordinator herself. BluePrint Studios did a fabulous job designing the decor and making the evening so beautiful.

After the bride and groom were ready we headed down to the steps of the Bently Reserve for the “first look” and then headed inside for their legal ceremony. After which they had a Hindu ceremony and then a reception immediately following. We have so many beautiful images it was hard to select our keepers and especially to do this blog post!

Some takeaways for other brides can be the following!

#1. Wear something cute and sassy before getting into your traditional wedding attire. We can get some amazing photos of you with your hair and makeup that you and your husband will love! As you can see from the images below! They are gorgeous!

#2. Get a nice hotel room with natural light! We can’t stress this one enough. Having natural light will make or break the quality of your images and with nice light, comes nice photos. As a reminder, we also turn off all fluorescent lights when we enter a hotel room for this reason. We don’t like green/yellow light.

#3.Do a first look! Before the ceremony we were able to do some bride and groom portraits and family photos. We had no time after the ceremony so do that early!

We hope you enjoy the images and please email us if you would like us to document your special day!

Neelima + Brian | Fusion Wedding Highlights at Bently Reserve

April 17, 2013 by vijay Leave a Comment

Our 2013 wedding season is officially underway! We are so excited for this upcoming year! We have so many cool new things happening! Those who follow our blog are going to be in for a treat! We are planning a ton of great posts including photos, films, wedding tips, and much much more!

Neelima and Brian are an awesome couple! We were so excited to photograph and film their wedding at the Bently Reserve in San Francisco. They had a fusion wedding with a legal ceremony performed by a judge and then a Hindu ceremony. The Hindu ceremony was done in record time, just around 15 minutes and this was achieved by not having a formal Priest. This way they could perform all the rituals without having a lot of talking, which tends to take most of the time during a Hindu ceremony.

After the ceremony they headed back to the hotel to change while we shot cocktail hour and did some awesome time lapses that I think add a lot to the production value of the piece. It was a little sketchy leaving a $5,000 camera out on the street in SF in the rain but it was worth it to get the shot!

I could not believe how Neelima and Brian managed to talk with each one of their guests at their wedding. That is very rare to see and it really shows how important their friends and family are. The night ended with amazing food, speeches, dancing, and more dancing! Pump up your speakers, sit back, and enjoy this gorgeous Indian wedding Highlights Video at the Bently Reserve in San Francisco!

Veena + Eric | Fusion Catholic/Hindu Wedding Highlights

January 28, 2013 by vijay Leave a Comment

One of our last weddings of 2012, Veena and Eric had a beautiful celebration. Their wedding was designed and coordinated by the amazing Amrit from Anais Events. We had the pleasure of photographing and filming all their events, and doing a same day edit during the reception. After the wedding, we took more footage from the reception and worked it into this wedding highlights you see below. It is nice to have more time to work on the edit so we can make everything perfect.

The wedding took place at my favorite venue in the Bay Area, Casa Real. I love this venue because of the nice parking lot for baraats, the impeccable service and quality employees Casa Real has, and the beautiful vineyards and architecture of the building. Sit back, relax and check out this spectacular cinematic Hindu and Catholic Fusion Wedding Highlights! Music was licensed through The Music Bed.
