DoubleTree Anaheim Pakistani Muslim Wedding Ceremony – Sana & Yousuf

Ahmed — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 01:27:28 +0000

Sana & Yousuf’s Pakistani Muslim Wedding Ceremony took place at the DoubleTree Anaheim in Anaheim, California. The indoor Ceremony was beautifully decorated in an arabesque manner giving us ample opportunities to capture unique and candid shots focusing on a style we never have before. We had the opportunity to work with some wonderful vendors including DoubleTree Anaheim, Kamal Sandu from Dhamaka Productions, Liz from LayerCake Bakery, flowers by Magali from Fine Roses, and the Make-up was done by the beautiful bride herself, who is starting up as a freelance make-up artist! Both photography and videography were done by the AAcreation Photography team. Below are a few of our favorite shots from the Wedding Ceremony.

Fawad & Maryam’s Pakistani Muslim Wedding Ceremony and Reception took place at the Hyatt Long Beach in Long Beach, California.

Ahmed — Wed, 21 Dec 2011 02:16:24 +0000

Priya and Krish held their Indian Hindu Wedding Ceremony at the Shri Laxmi Narayan Mandir in Riverside, California. This was the couple’s first Ceremony followed by their Sri Lankan one, so we had a great time working with them and their families as we had already gotten to know them and knew exactly what and when to shoot. Having shot at the location before gave us an additional advantage. Some of the lovely vendors we got to work with included Wedding Coordination by Amy from Planning Elegance, Dj-ing by Amit and Nishant from 3D Sounds and Shri Laxmi Narayan Mandir in Riverside.

Pamela and Maikel’s American Orthodox Christian Church Ceremony took place at the St. Mina Church in Colton, California. Though the day started off a little rainy and gloomy, it didn’t stop the Abraham and Morkos families from celebrating in style! Something we learned about two families when we first met them at the engagement shoot. The colorful event was filled with white and purple decorations and coordinated outfits worn by the bridesmaids and groomsmen. Once the Ceremony was over the function continued onto Anoush Banquet and Catering in North Hollywood for a Mediterranean style Wedding Reception. We got a chance to work with a variety of vendors, both old and new including Anoush Banquet and Catering, St. Mina Church, Make-up by Atelier Sav Beauty Boutique , and Video by Arka Photography.

Ahmed — Tue, 29 Nov 2011 22:56:31 +0000

Juhi Varshney will soon be launching her latest Silver Jewelry Collection for her brand Karats by Juhi, and we had the great pleasure of shooting her catalog. The experience was interesting as it allowed us to branch out from our usual clientele and gave us a chance to work with a someone that had a different creative approach and motives behind what they wanted the final results to look like. Over the past week we have come together with Juhi to create something that she loves! Below are a few of our favorite shots documented from the collection, which took place at the AAcreation Photography Studio in Brea, California.
