Arti and Vipin’s special day was my 1st 2012 Hindu wedding & Reception party all in one day, plus a Civil inbetween! There was a beautiful sunrise at 7am when I arrived at Epsom Race Course, so I made Naresh from Lax Videography pull over several times while I ran out and caught the perfect shot of the sun rising!  I had an absolute blast on the day, everyone was in good spirits and it was an honor to capture Arti and Vipin’s wedding memories. The Hindu wedding was beautifully conducted, Vipin’s sister’s laughed a lot (probably more-so at me and my Homer Simpson socks! ).

Then followed by the Civil ceremony and after a short break we pretty much straight into the reception party which featured a Dhol-bot! (think of a Robot playing the Dhol) and all the guests partied hard! For me, it was the 1st time a groom has picked me up and spun me around on the dance floor, I held onto my camera with my life at the moment!  17 hours later, I reflected on what a fantastic wedding I had just captured and thought to myself, I love what I do!

Arti & Vipin, I wish you ALL the very best for the future, you guys are great together. A big thank you to the Raninga and Nayyar families for making me feel very welcome during the 2 wedding events.

Below are a few of the moments captured, enjoy :)

I’ve known Kim and Jas (Jason) for quite some time as we all used to work together a few years ago. Kim would usually see me shattered on a Monday morning sitting at my desk after a heavy weekend of photography wondering how on earth I managed it all! Both Kim and Jas saw how my photography skills were developing, they always kept saying to me that I should fulfil my dream and become a full time photographer and that I’d be mad not to! Due to redundancy, the dream became a reality, funny how things work out hey?

So back to Kim and Jas, these two are head over heals for each other, I knew after a short period of time that Kim will be the next Mrs Hanscomb in the future! Kim always hinted that she only wanted me to photograph her wedding and finally that day came and I was honoured to capture their big day in my special way. Kim and Jas’ wedding took place in Oakley Manor in Hampshire, the day was full of joy, happiness, laughs and lots of yummy food! I really enjoyed myself at their wedding, and below are a few moments captured.

Big thanks to my wife Pinki for her help during the day :)

Kim & Jas, I wish you all the best for the future.
