They say your parents mold you into the person you become. My parents, Saleha and Bulbul, have been married for 28 years. These photographs were taken in 1997 of their marriage ceremony, and have forever inspired me as a photographer.

I have always appreciated the imperfections and reality of time in these photographs. Surviving the passage of time (literally and ideally), I have never felt these photos were outdated as someone who grew up strictly in a newer generation of artists. And to me, that is proof that wedding photography trends will fade, but the authenticity of real time moments captured with love and film will survive the passage of time.

I not only aspire to document your wedding day with passion and love, but also connect with you as a person. I believe in connecting with my clients so I can deliver a album that feels the most like them.

A little about me

I grew up in Brooklyn most of my life and hoped to be a astronomer or a doctor. Unfortunately, my love for history and people always came out stronger in the end. I now study communications and politics in SUNY New paltz as I hope to contribute to a better world.

I took my first real photo on a dingy camera I got from ebay, and it was of my paintings. Soon, I learned the ins and outs of photography through my experience learning photography at NYU and NYC salt. A few years ago, I fell in love with film photography and never looked back. The analog process of film reminded me of the joy I felt painting growing up.

I feel so lucky being able to witness and capture memories for people on a day that changes their life!
