[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Muslim weddings are embarked as being very traditional but very special events for both groom and the bride. Traditionally, the Asian Muslim bride wears sparkling, bright clothes, with lots of jewellery and flowers. This is in contrast to the Arab Muslim bride, who traditionally wears a white dress and veil, like her Christian counterpart. Her hands and feet are decorated with henna tattoos (Mehndi). This is picture of a typical Pakistani bride in strikingly shocking colors, with jewellary.


Snatched with EOS D10 using 70-210 F4 lens at a shutter speed of 1/45. The light is the evening sunlight without the use of any flash and studio lights.

A beutiful model and Beautiful Portrait. I love the why you capture these portraits.
God Bless you

A really nice portrait. I'm so jealous I really want the opportunity to capture a wedding like this but haven't had the chance as of yet.

Well done.

Very beautiful! The jewelry however begs for more sharpness and detail. The lighting here is superb and her thoughtful expression makes this a classic intimate portrait.

She's beautiful!
And your note is very interesting! Thanks for sharing!

I like this portrait very much. Good pose and use of the area.
Small hint there is a dark shadow under the nose. You can light this op and make it 100 % perfect
