South Asian Weddings are known for their bright colors. This past summer, I photographed a beautiful three day wedding in Austin, Texas. I’ve decided to share three of my favorite detail photographs from the wedding. The first was taken of the bride’s bangles on the day of her Mendhi. I used the bride’s vibrant dupatta as a backdrop to accent the colors in the bangles. The second photograph is of the bride’s hands elaborately decorated with henna/mendhi. This photograph was taken the morning of the wedding. I love the contrast of the henna/mendhi against the beaded, white wedding lenga. The last image was taken at the brides reception at an outdoor venue in Austin called the Hummingbird House. This picture focuses on the bridal bouquet which includes two of my favorite flowers, calla lilies and roses.
