Family Portrait Fun with the Gopalan’s and one very popular Chellappan in McLean, Virginia

Surprisingly, our son’s girlfriend asked us the first question: Did you know Vidya and her husband, Rakesh Gopalan, with Queen City Trends? And I laughed because we also know Vidya, Rupa, and Kavita! All three of these sisters entrusted us to capture their day, but more importantly, the love this entire family gives us is certainly one that makes us feel like a big part of their family. It is a loyalty like no other, and each time we are with them, we are reminded that when our clients hire us, it is because they want “the Regeti’s” and it is the most rewarding feeling when you feel that much love and admiration for what you bring in all that you do.

Watching all the families become engaged and get married has been one of the high points in our careers actually because we have so many families that have invited us in and made us their chosen family for life; it is humbling to know that the love never stops and if we ever needed anything neither would the giving – they all make it abundantly clear. The list goes on in this family as the referral never stops and continues to grow… like when we again caught up with everyone in Arizona for Milan and Neha’s wedding and then only to realize that when we shot Shipra’s (*she was one of our first ever Indian weddings – definitely an OG of ours – here’s a little throwback to hers sisters Preeti’s wedding not only were Milan and Neha there but also all of the Goyal’s too – Rachna, Seema, and Shalini too!

I could go on forever, but I will bring it back to the Gopalans. Thank you once more for the continuous love, hugs, and advice that you all have given us throughout these many, many wonderful years!

XOXO,
-the Regeti’s-

We are on Instagram
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.

Christmas in America is culture as much as it is tradition 🤍

It’s family, food, memories, and the people we carry with us — both near and far.

Today’s South Asian Wedded Life episode holds space for engagement, family dynamics, Indo-American life, and the emotions that surface when love and legacy meet.

Sending love to everyone navigating the season in their own way.

YouTube @amyregeti is where the entire heartfelt episode is ... head on over! 
🎄 Merry Christmas, SAWL family.
Coming off a wedding weekend always leaves me thoughtful 🤍

Somewhere between unloading camera bags, folding laundry, and realizing Christmas is next week, I found myself replaying a quiet thought I know I’m not alone in…

We shouldn’t have to explain neglect to our kids or visiting family in a place meant to teach reverence.

I finally sat down and talked about it — honestly, gently, and without judgment — in a new episode of SAWL - Spilling the Chai with Amy ☕️

If you’ve ever left a place of worship feeling spiritually full but physically unsettled… this conversation might be for you.
