Day 2: Perry /Smyth Wedding Day~!

I have to admit that I thought blogging this wedding was going to be the easiest blog ever, boy was I wrong! I don’t think that Srinu and I ever imagined that we would ever become so close to a client in our lives. As popular oppinion would have it among most professional photographers, the advise would be to keep your distance and stay business like in order to avoid future problems and stress. Well it was so easy to fall in love with this family from the moment we met Terri and her daughter Adriana we had a connection of some sort, very unique in it’s own web of events.

I don’t think that there was a day that went by without recieving an email since we booked them over a year ago, every detail to us was known even before we all watched it unfold in front of our very own eyes. Hearing this mother talk about the details of the wedding and what her daughters wants were in her wedding day was enough to make any normal person feel she was obsessed and completely OCD on this affair. Often after talking to Terri on the phone about all the appointments that she had been having with all the vedors that played big roles in bringing it all together I would often just pray that it was all that she and Adriana could ever have dreamed of.

Well the day came as fast as it went and Adriana and Ryan are finally married! The wedding day was as magical as ever and love and laughter just filled the air for this perfect pair! We could not be anymore happier for these two families that have united as one. The Lord certainly works in the most mysterious of ways, as Terri and Allen now have a new son and we have gained some life long wonderful friends! May the Perrys and the Smyths always be ever so blessed~!

Few serious shout outs for bringing this wedding together:

Without the help and assistance of all these individuals none of this would have been possible, they were all wonderful!

Confession: walking into a wedding where I`ve never met the couple makes me a little nervous. No engagement session, no getting-to-know-you time beforehand — just showing up and hoping the images feel like *them* and not just pretty pictures of strangers.

Bhavya`s mom reached out for this one, and from the second we met Bhavya and Jayant, every worry melted away. They were two of the sweetest, most humble people we`ve photographed — and walking these vines at Stone Tower Winery in Leesburg? Absolutely no complaints there. Some venues just do the work for you.

Okay, I have to be honest with y`all — I am NOT a pani puri girl. 😅 My brother-in-law hyped these up so much in Hyderabad that he drove me over an hour through absolutely brutal traffic to hit up one of the best spots for it, and when that crunch/cold tamarind water/cilantro combo hit me all at once... I just wasn`t ready. Coming from the girl who makes her own idlis and dosa batter from scratch with a stone grinder, you`d think I`d be all in on this one. Maybe I just need round two with lower expectations!

We photograph SO much incredible food at Indian weddings and I love learning the stories behind every dish, every family favorite, every `you HAVE to try this` moment. Tell me — am I wrong about pani puri, or does everyone feel this way the first time? 👇 And if you`re planning a wedding full of food, family and moments like this, DM us — we`d love to talk.

That`s our niece ShelbyJ and her fiancé Thomas, caught during a mini session out in the field behind our house — a little preview before their October 24, 2026 wedding. Here`s something we don`t talk about much: the real cost of this job isn`t the gear or the long hours, it`s the weekends. As South Asian and fusion wedding photographers, we spend our Saturdays helping other families honor two cultures, two faiths, and build one new one — which means we`ve had to step back from photographing our own family`s celebrations. Shelby was bummed we won`t be behind the camera for her big day, but honestly? We`re thrilled we get to just be family that day instead.

Okay, this love story has us grinning ear to ear. 😄 Sanjana and Ram met in college in Goa, India, then somehow ended up chasing their PhDs on the opposite side of the globe in the USA. Ram apparently did some serious chasing before Sanjana actually proposed to him, and honestly? Look at them now, strolling through the winding pathways at the Evergreen Museum in Baltimore like it was always meant to be. Love will always find its way.

That rich red-and-gold saree against all those autumn leaves is giving us major color-palette envy. Is it October yet?! Got a love story with a few plot twists of your own? We`d love to hear it — drop a comment or DM us to chat about your big day! 💌

This little tray tells its own story. Turmeric, kumkum, flowers, all set out before Aish and Kangjun`s Hindu ceremony at the Lotus Temple in Chantilly. Kangjun and his family came from China for this, and so much of it was new to them. Watching a family lean in and ask questions, want to understand the why behind each ritual, is one of my favorite parts of fusion weddings. Nobody`s just going through the motions. Everyone`s learning.

Have you seen a family embrace traditions that weren`t originally their own? I`d love to hear about it. And if you`re planning a fusion celebration of your own, send us a DM, we`d love to talk.

There`s a particular kind of quiet that happens during a first look, right before it turns into laughter. Aish and Kangjun had their first look at Eleanor C Lawrence Park in Chantilly before heading to their wedding at the Lotus Temple and a reception at Shadow Creek in Leesburg. Kangjun has this playful, kindred energy, and Aish speaks so softly that it seemed to pull the soft side right out of him too. You can see it in how gently he`s holding her face here.

We love these in-between moments almost as much as the ceremony itself. If you`re planning a wedding with a few different locations and traditions woven together, we`d genuinely love to hear about it. Drop a comment or send us a DM.

Aish and Kangjun`s haldi at Meadowlark Botanical Gardens and I`m just going to say it, I don`t think Meadowlark has ever looked prettier for a pre-function. That gold bell tucked into all that yellow and white? Chef`s kiss. There`s something about a garden setting for haldi, the greenery just makes those marigolds and turmeric hues pop even more.

Have you been to a haldi at a botanical garden before? Tell me about it in the comments, or DM us if you`re dreaming up something similar for your own celebration.

Okay but when the bride`s parents look this good together, they deserve their own feature on our page! All jokes aside, Aish`s mom, Geeta, was truly the hero of this day. That smile says it all.

Parents don`t get nearly enough camera time at weddings, and we`re always looking for these moments. Tell us in the comments: who was the real MVP at your wedding?

Whoever said diamonds are a girl`s best friend clearly never met this Manisha`s pooch!

Right before we headed out for portraits, she got down in her lehenga, veil and all, just to say goodbye to her pup. No hesitation, no worry about her dress. That tells you everything about her. Moments like this are exactly why we love showing up early on wedding days, because the best photos usually happen when no one`s posing.

Tag someone whose pet would absolutely be in their wedding photos, or DM us if you`re planning a celebration and want it documented this honestly.

This one gets me every time. 🥹 Manisha and Kevin moved their whole wedding timeline up so her Dad could be there to see her married - because sometimes love means letting go of the plan you had and holding onto what actually matters. We weren`t able to be there for that particular celebration, but seeing this photo and hearing that her father got to share in her joy? That`s everything. Sending you both so much love, Manisha & Kevin. 💚

If your family`s story doesn`t fit the `traditional timeline` either - we get it, and we`d love to help you capture it anyway. Drop a comment or DM us to chat!

Okay, we have to talk about this sherwani 😍 Every single detail on Durgesh`s custom tailored jacket — the gold embroidery, the mirror work, the leaf motifs — was chosen with so much intention, and honestly? We`re just as obsessed with the customization as he is.

The little details before the ceremony even begins are some of my favorite things to photograph. This adorned kalash — coconut, mango leaves, fresh garlands, fruit, all wrapped with such care — is such a beautiful reminder that every element in a South Asian wedding carries meaning. Nothing is just decoration; it`s devotion.

I love slowing down to capture these quiet setup moments just as much as the big ones. If you`re planning your ceremony and want a photographer who notices (and honors) every detail, let`s chat — send me a DM or drop a comment below!

Because sometimes fairytales really do come true, and the road leads your hero straight to you 🌹 Swati was an absolute Belle of the Ball on her wedding day — her way, with the sweetest heartfelt details and her closest people surrounding her. There wasn`t a drop of rain that could dampen this parade, just grass getting a much-needed drink and two hearts getting exactly the moment they deserved.

The way he looked at her while in his handsome well earned uniform, the way her lehenga caught every shade of that garden — this is exactly why we love what we do. Blending two worlds, two families, two love languages into one unforgettable frame.

Rain couldn`t touch this moment. 🌧️🇺🇸 A hand-painted lehenga, dress blues, and a walk across the lawn that said everything about the beautiful blending of two worlds — heritage and honor, side by side. This is exactly why we love what we do: every fusion wedding tells a story that`s never been told quite this way before.

There is something incredibly special about spending a quiet weekend morning with a couple before the rush of wedding day begins.

No timelines.
No guests waiting.
No pressure.

Just the two of them walking through the streets of Georgetown, holding hands along the waterfront, laughing, talking, and slowly settling into the comfort of being photographed together.

What our couples may not always realize is how much this time means to us, too.

Engagement sessions are not just about creating beautiful images. They are about connection. Trust. Conversation. Learning how two people love each other, how they found one another, what matters to them, what makes them laugh, and what kind of life they are building together.

And this reel felt even more meaningful because the song used here was created exclusively for them.

Srinu and I produced it together after spending time with them, listening to pieces of their story, and learning more about who they are as a couple. We wanted the music to feel personal, emotional, and true to them — not just something placed over their images, but something created from the experience of being with them.

The song is called:

“Pyaar Dosti Hai”
प्यार दोस्ती है

Love is friendship.

And truly, isn’t that the heart of it?

The kind of love that lasts is not only built on romance. It is built on friendship. On safety. On understanding. On quiet loyalty. On choosing someone who becomes your calm place, your steady hand, your closest companion, and your home.

To our beautiful couple, thank you for allowing us into this small but meaningful piece of your story. The honor and privilege were entirely ours.

As wedding photographers, we know photographs like this don’t happen because someone wears a beautiful outfit.

They happen because dozens of people create the conditions for a moment to unfold naturally, and then a photographer has the awareness to recognize it before it disappears.

The planner creates space.

The stylist creates harmony.

The makeup artist prepares confidence.

The family creates context.

The couple brings emotion.

And the photographer turns all of it into memory.

So while the world is admiring Rashmika’s veil—and rightfully so—I also want to acknowledge the artist who helped the world see it.Because photographs that make millions of people stop scrolling are rarely accidents.

They are the result of preparation, trust, collaboration, and an artist who knows exactly when to press the shutter.

Because for us the details are as important as the bigger picture. We have been covering weddings now for years and the one thing that has never changed is our excitement leading up to each one. I am not sure if it is the relationship building, the detail orientedness of our clients, the bonds we get to enjoy, watch, see form on the day of or if it is simply the excitement, the energy, the love that fills the air that gives you an all time natural high that I don`t think we will ever get enough of in our lifetime. But 100% it will never get old for us... each event still fills us with anticipation and butterflies. 🦋🦋🦋 #indianamericanfusionweddings #washingtondcweddings #hinduweddings #multiculturalweddings #indoamerican #indianweddingphotography #theregetis #2027brides #weddingphotography #weddinglehengha #weddingdress #indianweddingdresses #dcwedding #novaweddings
