Miss. Pakistan – Ayesha Gilani: Arlington, Virginia

It was a pleasure to photograph Miss. Pakistan, Ayesha Gilani of Arlington, Virgnia. The concept of giving her wings was all her own, but in so many ways I find it symbolic of all women. This shot turned out beautifully despite the cold weather we under went and the security officer at the National Harbor who was not entirely amused that we were in a taped off location to shoot this shot in order to avoid the construction debris everywhere.

Congratulations to Ayesha on her title. We hope that she has found wonderful ways to use it to benefit the good of others. Cheers!

    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.

👉 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.
