Summayah and Mohib | Columbia, SC

I had the pleasure to attend and capture Summayah and Mohibs wedding in Columbia, SC. Both being of Pakistani origin, it was a 2 day event including a Mehndi the day before the wedding. Both days were full of joy and love. It was a unique experience for me and one I will never forget. The colors and vibrancy of the decorations and clothing made my job that much more fun. Thank you to Summayah and Mohib for letting me capture your special day. Congrats on your marriage! Visit my fan page to view more pictures from the 2 days in the Albums section.

Erin and Shane | Puerto Peñasco, Mexico

I had the recent privilege of traveling to Puerto Peñasco, Mexico to shoot the wedding of Erin and Shane. My husband was able to come with me so we were able to make the trip into a mini vacation. We had never been to Mexico before but were pleasantly surprised with the beauty of the area and the kindness of its people. The villa Erin and Shane's family rented on the beach was just stunning. Everyone was in a happy and relaxed mood and it made for a very fun evening. The wedding took place a few months before in Arizona but this was the belated wedding party and it could not have been nicer or more joyous. Congrats Erin and Shane!
