Saketh and Thrisha – Telugu Wedding at The Riverview Ballroom, Gaylord Hotels, Oxon Hill, Maryland

It was a day when one looked up and thought if it would rain or shine, and as a photographer, you think to yourself, just make it through to the reception, and all will be fine! Thank the Lord above it did for Thrisha and Saketh’s beautiful traditional Telugu South Indian wedding ceremony and all the beautiful light that wrapped them in Riverview Ballroom.

You never realize just how much love and trust truly surrounds you in a community until you photograph the son’s wedding of one of the first people you friended when moving all the way across the world and starting a new journey just out of your teens, practically! You quickly realize the meaning of the bonds formed, the trust that is given, and the support that you have spent almost more than two decades growing and earning within a devoted, loving, and committed community. Srinu and I would be amiss if we did not acknowledge how we got to be amongst one of the top South Asian teams not only in the DMV but recognized on a global level. It is all of you, our loved ones, and clients alike, and we cannot thank you enough for that kind of love and loyalty – all of you know who you are, and you mean the world to us. In turn, we are always here to do the same.

So Saketh, Thrisha, and family, we hope that through our lens, we did your day the justice it so deserved as the weather waited till sunset to drop its happy, heartfelt tears to bless your day. To Sumeet and his team over at Dream Shaadi, we cannot commend you enough on your abilities to run a show no matter how large and putting all things in place, keeping all things in order and, of course, on time with a little buffer to spare, so here we go – hope you enjoy a little of what we have to share!
