As I’m wrapping up these last beautiful wedding edits…I am reflecting deeper about so many things✨

Having big realizations about the magnitude of this work and how creating this wedding photography company has led me to learning and studying more about people, understanding how important it is to stay grounded during stressful times, educating myself about energy, understanding big themes like knowing there is a lot of fun with South Asian weddings but there’s also a very big pressure for our couples and their families.

We, as their trusted wedding vendors/guides, are there for our couples throughout it all. And if we are empaths (which a good majority of us are) then we feel every little nuance and emotion that goes on that day.

We know when the bride/groom is done with photos…
We know when someone feels off or uncomfortable…
We know when anxiety comes in the room.
We know when things are hitting people on a deep level.
We know when to remind the couple what the day is about and keep them fully present (even if they might be stressed out)

And it’s our job to document that day in a way that flows effortlessly while being mindful of busy timelines, family photos, rituals and traditions…

It’s a lot but learning all of this has really shaped me into the person I am today…and as I wrap up these last edits, I am being so mindful of it all. What a gift to be able to learn so much from a career that at its main sense is all about presence.

What a beautiful thing🫶🏼

Holding sacred space with our lens✨
