Krithika & Tarun's Tamil Iyer or Iyengar wedding Wedding, Delhi
Tamil Wedding Photography in Delhi: A Throwback to My First Wedding
This is a throwback post to the very first wedding I covered as a candid wedding photographer. I still remember the rush of getting my advance amount. My hands were shaking as I packed my rented equipment and headed to the mantapa. There was so much anxiety, excitement and self doubt running through me that day.
Funnily enough, I still feel that same way every time I shoot a wedding, even now. The responsibility of capturing someone's wedding day never really gets easier, and I think that is a good thing for any documentary wedding photographer to feel.
This particular South Indian wedding stays close to me. Krithika and Tarun had a simple Tamil Iyer wedding, followed by the chunni chadhana ceremony.
I started the day with Krithika's bridal getting-ready shots, and I remember how composed she looked despite everything happening around her. As the pheras began, I kept my camera ready for candid wedding photography of both Krithika and Tarun, the small glances and reactions that make a wedding feel real.
One moment I still remember clearly is Krithika getting emotional during the thaali, or mangalsutra, part of the ceremony. I had been married for just a year at the time and I could completely relate to what she was feeling.
Here is a short story from Krithika and Tarun's Tamil Iyer or Iyengar wedding photoshoot in Delhi.
