Kavya + Kyle 😍 Their wedding at Stonewall Golf Club in Gainesville, Virginia, was every bit as emotional and beautiful as we hoped it`d be. There`s always a quiet moment right before a bride steps out — everything slows down, and you can just feel it. Kavya`s was one of those. Two families, two cultures, one couple who are so clearly, completely in love. We`re still smiling over these teaser images!

This or that? Why not both. 💍✨ Some photographers will lay out all the jewelry, snap one flatlay, and call it done. But we`re old school - every piece your family hands down, every necklace your grandmother clasped on your neck, deserves its own moment AND its place in the bigger picture. So you`ll get the wide shot of it all together, and the close-up on that one bangle that means something extra. We don`t believe in choosing.
What`s the one piece of jewelry in your wedding look that has a story behind it? Tell us below, or DM us to chat about how we cover your getting-ready details. 👇
You may know WHAT they’re doing. But do you know why her footprints are red?
Let’s break down Kanku Pagla.
If you’ve been to a Gujarati wedding, you’ve probably seen some version of this: the bride’s feet covered in kanku — the red vermilion associated with auspiciousness — and the footprints she leaves behind.
Sometimes on cloth, sometimes on paper, sometimes carefully preserved. Depending on family, community and generation, when and how it’s done can look completely different.
But the tradition underneath all those variations is what fascinates us. Kanku Pagla literally means those red, auspicious footprints. And the symbolism reaches much further back than the keepsake we see today. In Hindu tradition, Goddess Lakshmi — prosperity, abundance, good fortune — is represented by her footprints. And a new bride arriving at her marital home has long been associated with the arrival of Lakshmi herself. That’s why one of the most recognizable forms of Kanku Pagla occurs during Griha Pravesh: the bride steps into kanku, leaving her red footprints as she enters the home for the first time as a married woman.
Over generations, families carried and adapted that symbolism into their own traditions — including pre-wedding ceremonies like the one we’re photographing here.
And THAT is what we think matters.
South Asian traditions aren’t frozen in time. They travel. They change. They become regional, then familial. Grandmothers teach daughters, daughters teach granddaughters, families move across oceans…and sometimes the way something is done shifts while a piece of its original meaning quietly remains.
So the next time you see a bride’s feet painted red and paper sliding beneath them…don’t just see two little red footprints.
You’re watching a family carry forward an ancient idea of auspicious beginnings, prosperity, and the threshold between one chapter and the next.
Maybe that’s why we’re a little obsessive about photographing things like this.
Twenty years from now, someone will know those are her footprints.
We want them to know why they mattered.
Approximately 17 minutes before everyone starts asking where the bride and groom are. 😂
There is a very specific little window on a Hindu wedding day when you’re dressed, you’re ready, the mandap is waiting…
…and for approximately five glorious minutes, nobody needs anything from you.
No one is calling your name.
No auntie has come looking for you.
Nobody is asking where the garlands went.
The baraat hasn’t taken over the building.
And your photographers have very strategically made you disappear. 😏
This is that time.
A little walking.
A little snuggling.
An Eskimo kiss because apparently we are THAT cute today.
A gorgeous quiet silhouette.
And then…
a man on a bicycle casually cruises straight through your wedding portraits with a case of Michelob.
Because of course he did. 😂🍺🚲
And you know what?
WE KEPT THE PHOTO.
Because twenty years from now, we guarantee somebody is going to flip through these photographs and say:
“WAIT. Who is the guy with the beer?!”
And THAT is the good stuff.
We’ll give you the beautiful portraits.
We’ll find the light.
We’ll protect that little pocket of time before the beautiful madness of a Hindu wedding gets underway.
But we’re also never going to be so busy creating perfect wedding photographs that we miss the wonderfully imperfect things happening right in front of us.
The nose bumps.
The laughing.
The ridiculous interruptions.
The random guy on a bicycle who unknowingly earned himself a permanent place in the wedding gallery. 😂
Because once a Hindu wedding gets moving…
IT. GETS. MOVING.
And before hundreds of people want a hug, a blessing, a photograph, a conversation or simply need to know where you are…
we want you to have a few minutes where you get to just be you two.
Beautiful.
A little silly.
Very much in love.
And occasionally photobombed by Michelob. 🍺😂
Honestly?
Wouldn’t have it any other way.
We are suckers for great parent shots! There`s a different kind of magic in small weddings — the room feels closer, quieter, more real. Isha and Kevin`s ceremony was intimate but packed with so much love, and honestly, our favorite part wasn`t even the ceremony itself.
It was the getting ready and right before the ceremony having relaxed time to capture the little things and the priceless ones that took place in-between like this one, with Dad!
No rigid timeline, no one checking a watch. Just Isha`s mom adjusting her bangles, fixing her blouse, steadying her hands. Isha and Ryan helping each other prepare and stepping outside with family before the start of their ceremony.
These are the moments where families actually come together — not posed, not rushed, just present.
What`s your favorite getting-ready memory — yours or someone else`s? Tell us below, or DM us if you`re planning a wedding (big or beautifully small) and want it photographed this way.
That look right after the jaimala goes on — you can see it here. Garlands still settling, and they`re already stealing a glance like nobody else is on that sidewalk. This is one of my favorite in-between moments to catch because it`s not posed, it`s not planned, it`s just two people who can`t help but smile at each other.
Fusion weddings like this one are so special to shoot — two families, two traditions, blending into one really beautiful day. If you`re planning a wedding that mixes cultures (or doesn`t fit in a box), let`s talk about how we`d tell your story. Comment or DM us!
They’re not just sticking a colorful piece of wood into the ground. And this may be one of my favorite examples of how much meaning can hide inside a Gujarati wedding.
If you’ve grown up around Gujarati weddings, you may have seen some version of this ritual your entire life.
The decorated post is associated with the Manek Stambh and Mandap Ropan / Mandap Muhurat — the ceremonial establishing of the mandap before the wedding.
Before it is placed into the earth, the post may be wrapped with sacred thread and blessed as part of the family’s ritual. Then it is carried outside and planted into the ground.
But here’s the part I love:
Before we build the place where two people will be married, we acknowledge the earth upon which it will stand.
The Manek Stambh becomes more than a little wooden post. It represents the establishment of the mandap — the sacred space beneath which a new marriage will begin.
And depending upon the family, region and Gujarati community, the customs surrounding it may look a little different. That’s something I’ve learned after more than two decades of photographing South Asian families: there is rarely just one Indian way of doing anything.
Sometimes even the bride or groom knows what their family does because they’ve watched their parents, grandparents, aunties and uncles do it their entire lives…
…but they’ve never actually been told why.
That’s the part that gets me.
Because one day, someone is going to look at photographs like this and ask:
“What were they doing here?”
And I don’t want the answer to simply be, “Oh, that was something we did before the wedding.”
I want someone to remember.
The name.
The reason.
Who held it.
Who tied the thread.
Who taught them how to do it.
Because somewhere between tradition being practiced and tradition being explained is where legacy either gets passed down—or quietly disappears.
And THAT is why we photograph the little things. 🤍
The gasp. The hands flying up. The one friend who literally cannot keep it together. THIS is what we live for.
There`s something so pure about the moment a bride`s crew sees her for the first time, all dressed up, before anyone else does. Coordinated olive sharara sets, then that red and gold lehenga glowing against them as she walks in — it`s real, it`s unscripted, and it happens exactly once. We just have to be standing in the right spot to catch it.

Madhu is ready to get this baraat started - nothing like a morning baraat to really get you moving! There`s something so joyful about a daytime baraat - the sun`s out, the dhol is going, and the groom is dancing his way to the mandap surrounded by the people who`ve known him his whole life. That arms-wide, head-back energy? For some it might be McDonald`s but for us --- t`s why we wakeup early in the morning on the weekends.

Maya + Zach, somewhere between Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone and happily ever after. 🌿
There are some sessions that don’t need much of a storyline because they already feel like one.
A quiet summer morning.
Lotus flowers in bloom.
Barefoot-in-the-garden kind of romance.
A little running, a little dancing, and the kind of laughter that makes you forget someone is photographing you.
Maya + Zach — you two made this one ridiculously easy to romanticize. 🤍
That view, though. Shatakshi and Madhu chose the Omni in Hot Springs, VA for their sangeet celebrations, and honestly, those mountains rolling out behind the property? Chef`s kiss.

There`s a very short list of moments that can rival a mother`s joy on her daughter`s wedding weekend — and this forehead-to-forehead hug is definitely on it.

Don`t make a daddy`s girl call her dad on you - landline and all. Riddhi is ALL grown up and getting married and we are just... not ready. We`ve watched this happen a hundred times and it still gets us every single time, especially when the couple in front of our lens is this cute together. And the fact that she chose us for this?? We`re still smiling about it.
Sweet, playful, completely themselves - this is exactly the kind of energy we help bring from behind the camera. Got a proposal story or an engagement session on your mind? Drop a comment or send us a DM, we`d love to hear about it.
These are the shots that get me every time — not the couple, not the decor, but this. The parents, cousins, fiends, a little one in pink, perfectly content in her grandmother`s lap while everyone around her watches the sangeet unfold. She won`t remember this moment, but her family will, forever.
This is what we mean when we say wedding photography isn`t about trends — it`s about catching the in-between. The speeches, the performances, the glances between generations. Your joy was never meant to stand alone; it was always meant to be witnessed, held, and celebrated by the people who raised you. If that`s the kind of story you want told, we should definitely have a conversation.
Okay, we said it. Somebody had to.
After 20 years and more weddings than we can count, here`s what we`ve learned: the couples we click with best aren`t chasing trends or a perfectly styled feed — they want photos that still mean something at their 25th anniversary, when grandparents aren`t in the room anymore and that mandap is the only place they still "are." If that`s not you, no hard feelings, truly. But if it is... we`d love to hear about your day. Drop a comment or DM us — let`s talk.
We’re Amy and Srinu, a husband-and-wife team who have spent nearly two decades capturing weddings together—but beyond the camera, we’re just like you. When not photographing love stories, we’re raising five amazing kids, homesteading with Srinu’s mom, and enjoying life with our mini Bernadoodles, Arundhati and Rosie, and our 15-year-old Yorkie, Theo.
We find joy in the little things—Amy with her ever-growing flock of chickens, Srinu crafting fine woodworking pieces, and both of us diving into DIY projects together. That same passion for building a meaningful life is what we bring to every wedding we photograph.
For us, it’s never just about taking pictures—it’s about preserving the emotions, traditions, and fleeting moments that make your wedding uniquely yours. If our work resonates with you, we’d love to get to know you and be part of your story.
I have known about the Regeti's for a very long time. When it was finally time for my own wedding, we wanted important moments to be captured in a certain way focusing on family portraits/photos, but we also needed someone experienced with mixed wedding ceremonies. Despite us being awkward with posed photos, the Regetis captured everything so perfectly and kept us laughing along the way. They truly felt like they were part of the family by the end of it. Not to mention they were great at navigating family through photos without taking time away from us. Absolutely adore them.
Your wedding photography is more than just pictures-it's the art of preserving moments you'll cherish forever. Let's connect!
Schedule a FREE NO OBLIGATION consultation to meet us, learn about our unique approach to capturing weddings, and explore what we have to offer [TR] couples. This is your opportunity to ask questions, share your vision, and allow us to understand your needs so we can craft a custom proposal tailored to your wedding day.
No pressure, just conversation -because the perfect wedding photography starts with the perfect fit.

These are the shots that get me every time — not the couple, not the decor, but this. The parents, cousins, fiends, a little one in pink, perfectly content in her grandmother`s lap while everyone around her watches the sangeet unfold. She won`t remember this moment, but her family will, forever.
This is what we mean when we say wedding photography isn`t about trends — it`s about catching the in-between. The speeches, the performances, the glances between generations. Your joy was never meant to stand alone; it was always meant to be witnessed, held, and celebrated by the people who raised you. If that`s the kind of story you want told, we should definitely have a conversation.
Okay, we said it. Somebody had to.
After 20 years and more weddings than we can count, here`s what we`ve learned: the couples we click with best aren`t chasing trends or a perfectly styled feed — they want photos that still mean something at their 25th anniversary, when grandparents aren`t in the room anymore and that mandap is the only place they still "are." If that`s not you, no hard feelings, truly. But if it is... we`d love to hear about your day. Drop a comment or DM us — let`s talk.
