I was deeply moved by the rich and deep gestures of the Indian wedding traditions and their expressive practice.


I hope my reverance shows through the images.


The performances at the reception however, took me by surprise - certainly a delightful surprise. I think I wish I were Indian so that I got invited to all these weddings.

I hope I get to capture the splendid traditions of the Indian culture again sometime soon as well as work with the great people from Digital Canvas Productions - BJ, Susan, Lance, and David. I hope to have the opportunity to cover more Indian - hindu or sikh - wedding ceremonys with the careful eye of a photojournalist. I find the detailed and long events, sharpen my attention to detail and nuance.
