when they first sat down with me to talk about their wedding, I could tell they were in love. Priya, was already organized and had lists of everything and Josh was just happy that she was happy.
the day was a whirl of color and emotion as two incredible families joined to celebrate with a traditional Hindu wedding. we started photographing Josh and Priya in their American wedding attire (they also wore this for the reception) and I took through Boulder capturing so many moments between them.
the light was beautiful and the interaction that Priya and Josh had was amazing. the wedding was so fun with so many aspects of the ceremony new to me. Josh's side of the family led him on horse back to Priya's family waiting to receive him.
as a photographer I have realized that no amount of posing, coercing or camera techniques can capture something that isn’t there. as you go through these photos and watch the slide show it will be evident the genuine love that these two have for each other and their families. i could photograph this wedding over and over. Priya and Josh thank you for being such incredible people. here 's a few of my favorite photos from the day
i shot these photos in the lobby of the swanky St. Julien Hotel
i had one of the best assistants working with me at this wedding. Julie Afflerbaugh got this shot on the left here. It was like she was reading my mind getting the exact opposite shot and angle. Thanks Julie for the outstanding work.
i shot these two photos to be hung together on a wall. i'm looking forward to doing more of this.
i loved all the color and details to capture at this wedding.
at one point during the hindu ceremony they walk around the fire several times...and it is said that the
first one to sit down will be the leader in the home. can you guess who sat down first? i love this moment.
