Archana and Gopal, where do I even start! Typically I am a big preacher of engagement sessions because often enough when hiring a wedding photographer – now a days – the standard is they are pretty much always an inclusion! However, with Archana and Gopal we weren’t able to find time in their busy schedules for their engagement session, however we did find time for dinner!

I wish I could just duplicate her as a bride (Gopal too, gotta give him a little love as well!), but in all seriousness she knew exactly what she wanted and never second guessed herself, Gopal supported her the entire way. Probably the first smart thing she did was hire her amazing planner Sumeet with Dream Shaadi, but I have to give it to both of them I truly think it was their demeanor, approach to the day and the way they were brought up that truly made their day as special as it was. You simply wanted to be in every minute of their day with them because their relationship is so real, their smiles, laughter and her ability to just ready Gopal’s every move and take cues from one another – it made our job as their photographers almost obsolete. Gopal’s mom’s speech was hilarious and heartfelt, you knew his friends growing up were truly his brothers because she felt like they were her sons, the love was genuine and we could not imagine having been anywhere else on August 18th of 2018!
