Ashwini + Harish: Baltimore Marriott Waterfront in Baltimore, Maryland

Ashwini and Harish had a traditional South Asian wedding at the Baltimore Marriott Waterfront full of Indian traditions upon their returning from Bangalore, India. It’s an understatement to say that they were busy the entire month with celebrations, so much so that Harish had to work on getting well once he got back in order to celebrate here in the US! But with a little luck the two had a wonderful wedding in “Big Fat Indian” Style.

Our first time meeting Ashwini and Harish was during their engagement session in Washington DC as the two of them booked us during a conference call over the phone, super excited at the fact that we were free for their date! We were just as excited when they told us that we were their chosen photographers. Ashwini was stunning none the less as she wore a beautiful red lengha for her evening attire, while Harish had his suit custom tailored to fit him like a glove, he looked so debonair!

The Baltimore Marriott Waterfront is one of our absolute favorite places to photograph events as it is one of the most picturesque venues in Baltimore. The natural light that streams through the windows is enough to make a photographers heart melt like chocolate, rain or shine it is an amazing venue for photographing any bride. Ashwini had an amazing suite in which she got ready, honestly till now it was the best most roomy corner suites we have been able to shoot in – another great one is the JW Marriott in Washington DC across from the Willard Hotel which also has a great Presidential Suite – you just have to love the Marriott Hotels! So we were equally excited to learn of their venue choice. Now that the Four Seasons Hotel in Baltimore has gone up next to it, this makes Baltimore that much more desirable… but then again Baltimore sets the seen for great pictures!

Here’s the quiet truth no one tells guests before an Indian or Indian-American wedding:

You’re not just watching.
You’re participating.
Not with choreography or rituals — but with presence.

Indian weddings move differently.
They breathe differently.
They carry meaning in moments that don’t announce themselves.

When guests arrive expecting efficiency, cues, or constant explanation, tension builds — and the couple feels it.

What actually matters?
Respect.
Patience.
Openness.
That’s it.

This post isn’t about rules or etiquette.
It’s about showing up with curiosity instead of expectations — and why that one shift changes everything for the couple at the center of it all.

👉 Full blog is live (link in BIO)
👉 Especially worth sharing with non-Indian guests
👉 Brides: this is a great post to send before the wedding day

There’s what you see on wedding day.
And then there’s everything that makes us the photographers we are.

This channel is where we share the in-between —
the building, the learning, the late nights,
the marriage that has carried us through nearly two decades of photographing other people’s love stories.

We’re still very much in weddings.
Still shooting.
Still telling stories.
Still showing up for our couples.
But here, you’ll also see how we live, work, problem-solve, and grow together behind the camera —
because who we are off a wedding day shapes how we show up on one.

If you’re planning a wedding,
work in the wedding industry,
or simply love honest conversations about partnership, creativity, and building a life together —
you’ll fit right in.
