A Beautiful Love Story
I had the pleasure of meeting Mohammed and Ilhaam on their wedding day in January earlier this year. I always find it such a privilege to experience the love that two humans have for one another, as a wedding photographer that is something that you get a unique look into as you spend the whole day with the couple on one of the most memorable days in their lives. I Love that each person has their own story and way of celebrating their wedding day and especially when they stick true to their values.
This was my first time photographing a
Nikah
What a new experience for me. In my wedding photography career this was my first time photographing a Nikah. I love new experiences and getting to witness it all was a unique photographing opportunity for me. I look forward to more to come and getting to be creative in such a unique location. I feel like I learnt so much about the Islamic culture and feel I now have a greater experience on how this tradition takes place.

Ilhaam
I really enjoyed photographing Ilhaam interacting with her close friends and family at the end of the Nikah, I feel that I got to capture some really special moments. The emotion displayed is really a testimony to how much she is loved by those closest to her and how happy they are on such a special occasion.
