This was a super fun Pakistani and Egyptian fusion reception at San Ramon Marriott.

The couple was super fun and down to earth, and we started the event off with getting ready shots of both the bride and groom. We used a lot of on-camera flash for a very current trendy look. We also did some blur shots, running shots and elevator shots among others.

The event was just a massive party. Earlier in the day, they did their Nika ceremony, and then in the evening it was this reception.

The blending of the two cultures was fascinating and really fun to see. The music, the food, the outfits, everything was impeccable.

We really enjoy capturing these types of Valimas that have a lot of fun dancing and happy moments.

San Ramon Marriott is one of our favorite venues in that area for shooting cultural and South Asian events. We love working with couples who are having their wedding there and look forward to capturing more events there in the future.
