Hello everyone.  Summer is officially here, and with it comes new posts on Limon Photography.  Today I bring you the mehndi and wedding of Farah & Raza.  I’ve worked with Farah’s brother Anjum since High School, so I’ve known Farah and her family since then.  When I first started my photography career, I had a very select few friends who were not only supportive, but were dedicated fans.  These friends not only liked all my work, but constantly told me that when the time came, they would hire me for their wedding.  Farah was one of these friends, and told me that I would be photographing her wedding back in 2007.  Seven years later, the time had finally come, and I was more than thrilled to still get the call to come shoot her wedding.   When I finally got to meet Raza, I saw the natural charisma and kindness in him, and knew instantly that he was a perfect match for Farah.  I feel very honored to have been chosen to document such a special day for Farah & Raza after all these years, and I couldn’t be happier for the lovely couple.  Without further ado, I bring you some of the moments from their wedding.

Howdy folks. Summer weddings are in full effect. Now usually this is where I write something smart and quirky, but to be honest, I am a terrible writer, and I don’t want all my posts to sound repetitive. So from now on, I’ll write a lot less on the blog, and just let my pictures do the talking for me. With that being said, check out a mehndi and the wedding of Jamal & Hana at the Durham Marriott. This one was quite colorful and bright, very much like the bride and groom, and I had a great time covering it. Hope you guys enjoy it!

Wedding

Congratulations again Hana & Jamal!!

Howdy folks! Today I am delighted to bring you a double dose of photos, a Mehndi and a Wedding. This was my last event of 2012, and boy was it spectacular. I have to say, in all of the Mehndhis and Wedding’s I’ve covered, this one was by far the most elegant one I’ve shot. I was blown away at how beautiful the decor was at both events. The mehndi was vibrant and colorful, while the wedding was elegant and beautiful. The small touches like hand shaped cookies with frosting, or having a real life artist painting the scene added that extra bit of awesome to the event. Bushra and her planner definitely spent time to plan all this out, and she’s a rebel for thinking outside the box. I mean she came into her mehndi in a ferrari scooter, how cool is that? I had a lot of fun covering both the events. I can sit here and talk all day about how awesome the event was, and how good both of them looked, or how emotional some of the moments were… but I rather let the pictures do the talking for me. So without further ado, please enjoy the slideshow below. For those of you without flash support (ie apple products), I’ve also posted a few of the images below.

“henna” hand cookies!  How cool is that?!

Congratulations Again Bushra & Sultan!
