As I walked into the makeup room, the facial expression of the bride truly portrayed that it was indeed a huge (and pleasant) surprise for her. If you are wondering why the surprise..?? It is because my camera and I was probably the last thing that Nisha expected on that day. They say friends are gods gift to human kind, and thanks to a dear friend of the groom, I was appointed to shoot this wonderful matrimonial affair. Truly a heartfelt gift from the friend to the lovely couple.
The very first thing that I asked Nisha ,” Are you nervous ? “
She stretched her henna decorated hand out to mine and said ,” See how cold my hand is… I am damn nervous Silan…”
I managed to give her a comforting smile and took up the next 10 minutes as my personal mission to cheer this girl up.. .. while shooting, I cracked a couple of jokes here and there … inducing some laughter .. which produced not only great vignettes of the bride but a much relaxed bride. As I was about to step out the room… she looked at me, smiled..and said ” Thanks Silan.. You made my day..”
Believe it or not.. the wedding took a clean 20 minutes..yes only 20 minutes..since it was a Malayalee wedding. Everyone knows that Malayalee weddings are one of the quickest occasions known to most.. They probably live up to the famous words of Caesar’s “Veni Vidi Vinci” That’s it.
I would have to agree that it was not an easy task as I had to be discreet and inobtrusive , in respect to the two official photographers on the floor. I guess being suave and sleek is not my cup of tea. Nevertheless it was a very exciting and enjoyable frame of time..
20 minutes of sheer workout that included running, jumping, crawling, squatting , so on and so forth.. Below, are the results of my fun escapade.. Best part of the whole thing was that 70 percent of the pictures were natural depiction of pictorial essence itself.. and there is no way better to project that than in Black and White!!! There was absolutely no flash involved throughout the shoot. It was all thanks to natural lightings and my favorite lenses non the less
Enjoy,
RG
