As wedding photographers, one of the things we feel the need to do, is to constantly re-invent ourselves. That means constant learning; be it shooting techniques, lighting techniques, post processing, or just improving and strengthening our visual aesthetics so we can see shots before we click. And due to the nature of wedding photography, there isn’t a whole lot of practice or experimentation that can be done in-the-field so to speak. When a couple hires us, we don’t go in and “try” stuff. At the same time, we know that we need to have an ever-growing arsenal of shots and techniques in our belt to be able to pull them out and use them in tight spots.

Consequently, we are always using each other as guinea pigs to try out new stuff on our off days. A good by-product of having to do this is that we can end up with some shots of ourselves that we would otherwise never take. Interestingly enough, we both fight to be behind the lens rather than in front of.

We took the following shots in this little corner in our building gym. This is what the corner actually looks like (sorry about the noise; iPhone picture):

Concluding Jeet and Nidhi’s series was their wedding reception that also took place at the Tudor Hall in Ottawa. The couple looked absolutely radiant and was all fun and laughs from their entrance right to the dance floor. We got some amazing shots. Enjoy!

Right after their entrance Jeet and Nidhi brought it to the dance floor. We love this following slow shutter capture.




The couple then took front seats in the middle of the hall while their siblings, cousins and friends did their thing.



And obviously which wedding dance performance these days is complete without a homage to the king.




Some of Jeet’s friends abroad (Australia) had sent a video containing some emotive, heartfelt, naked guy with a guitar on the beach moments.



They opted for a sit down dinner at the reception, and the food was served in these amazing little dish stands. How traditionally Indian looking.









And we’ll conclude with our favourite series from the entire wedding.
