Summer Suiting for Your Groom
May, 13 2021
There is a reason why summer is the most popular time to tie the knot! From implementing fresh and blooming floral ideas and colorful reception decor details to introducing your guests with light reception bites and creative signature cocktail ideas, summer weddings are a sight to behold when everything around turns flowering and bright. When we imagine sunny nuptials, our minds quickly wander off to people dressed up in summer wedding attires, sitting under shading canopies, and sipping popsicles in Prosecco and edible flower garnished Cosmo! A summer wedding is a perfect occasion to be outdoors and dress comfortably while enjoying the best of what the season has in store. Just like weddings in any other season, the wedding attire of the bride typically gets the sartorial spotlight, but a summer wedding equally offers the best chance to a groom to don an elegant boutonniere and take his casual groom attire style up a few notches and shine fairly as his partner on their wedding day.

An invisible yet strong ‘red thread of destiny’ tied by the gods around their ankles helped them find each other… and what happened next... let’s show you through the lens of our camera!
You don’t even realize when love tip-toes into your heart and stays there forever while you are stuck in a groove! And soon it claims every single place around you! It is the moment when you are not talked about alone amongst your friends and colleagues but as a couple. A couple in love shines through the crowd and can easily be recognized amongst millions just like the moon amidst countless stars! And when these couples handpick us to document their story we feel beyond fortunate! Thankful to our profession, we love narrating love stories with our camera capturing the real emotions floating around the star-crossed couple with the backdrops they deserve. Every story is unique and new to us and the moment we deliver the memories of their happiest day as a keepsake to the newlyweds to cherish forever and a day it gets saved in the subconscious memory folder of our head. But there are some stories that refuse to sink into the sea of memories and keep floating on the surface. Jenny and Rayn’s love tale is one of them and we can’t wait to take you through the pages of their unforgettable love story written by our wedding photographers.

May, 6 2021
If life is a cookie, love is definitely the choco-chip bits on it that we enjoy the best! The best part of life, love sure adds the much-needed flavor and adventure in the journey! Love is an acknowledgment of a mystery that is greater than ourselves, or anything that we can’t even comprehend! It’s what has led stoic men to write poems, urged warriors to rage wars, tempted people to write songs and act in a way they never imagined themselves to ever act before! And most importantly, it has enough substance to inspire thousands of classic books and has kept The Bachelor on TV for 21 seasons! So when life makes you stumble upon love, there is nothing else to do but to enjoy the ride. You indulge in the stolen glances, shared emotions, and the walks in the clouds as one is supposed to. And soon when you find your sweetheart asking that magical question, you say “Yes”! As soon as you get engaged, it is only a matter of time until you start getting ready for the big day. There are so many things just waiting to be done. Invites to send out, color palettes to deliberate on and the wedding menu to be decided. Even though it is a busy time, it is also important to take a step back and appreciate the magical time. After all, you won’t be getting this beautiful season of life again and you might as well make the best of it. An engagement photo session is of course the perfect way to take a step back and soak in the beautiful feeling of being engaged. Shaun and Cherie’s magical enchanting forest engagement photoshoot provides the perfect recluse for them to soak in the newly engaged feelings and get photographed while at it!

From the littlest of details to the perfect setting for a beautiful love story, this engagement photo session has everything and more! Let us take a closer look at the lovely couple and the photographic retelling of their fascinating love story!
Mini-Bouquets for the Understated and Minimal Bride
May, 3 2021
While we love wedding blooms regardless (who doesn't!), today we are deep-diving into the world of flowers, but with a modernized perspective. Flowers are a common choice in decorations and adornments and are a must for weddings. A wedding without the fragrant blooms sounds downright depressing! While over the years different kinds of decorations were introduced and evolved, we never really gave up on flowers, because why should we? It's the prettiest out of them all! There is a reason wedding flowers have been used historically for a long time now, and while the trends have developed remarkably over the decades, with cascading flowers, mismatched wildflower bunches, and perfectly packed bouquets making the rounds, mini bouquets are something that has recently become a thing, and we aren’t complaining! While mini bouquets have always been around in some form or the other, it is in recent years that the world saw a massive blooming of mini bouquets in the wedding industry. The reason being that there were a lot more minimal home weddings, garden weddings, minimonies, among many other versions of a wedding which necessitates a smaller guest list and smaller budgets. This led to the wedding dresses being much simpler, the makeup and hair more natural, the decor more DIY-esque, and the bouquets- much smaller! A change from the billowy cascading bouquets, mini bouquets are having quite a feat right now. And we couldn't stop gushing about how absolutely adorable they are. Simple, clean, and minimal, it perfectly depicts the weddings of today, and we love it! From a single stem of the flower to the simple clutch of tiny blooms, mini bouquets seem to be able to deliver the vibe of the year quite competently. While the flowers are small and minimal in their stature, they pack quite a blow when it comes to impact. In fact, the small size makes them all the more memorable. Let us look into this flower trend closely and look at some possibilities.
