Kamalina and Steve.

Finally done with finals! :D
And close-ish to being done with Christmas shopping too.
And of course because of exams I’m way overdue for a blog post.

So here’s a wedding I second-shot with Vadim several months ago. I was really excited since this was the first Hindu ceremony I got to photograph. We actually received a PDF file with all the detailed steps of the ceremony (I had to google like half of the terms on that). Unlike weddings in churches with a priest, the bride and the groom, there was sometimes up to 8 people surrounding Kamalina and Steve, making it challenging to photograph them through the chaos. You basically pre-focus, wait for an opening and shoot as soon as you get an opportunity. I kinda felt like a sniper.

So it was a big, fun, colourful wedding at the Centre des Sciences in Old Port. But the highlight for me was working with Ioan Films, the best videographers I’ve worked alongside during a wedding. Robert, Cristina, Mihai and Tudor were friendly, professional and I could tell even before seeing the final result that they were producing high-quality work. (Although I may be biased because they’re Romanian. Cristina also taught me a few Romanian things to say to Claudia’s mom.)

Enjoy the pictures!








I’ll end this post by wishing everyone happy holidays. Take lots of pictures and take time to relax!
